# Getting started

RefKit gives SaaS developers the tracking and payout infrastructure for an affiliate Program.

Choose the path that matches your role.

* Developers: [launch your first Program](/docs/getting-started/launch-program.md), then [integrate RefKit](/docs/integrate-refkit.md).
* Affiliates: follow the [affiliate quickstart](/docs/getting-started/affiliate-quickstart.md).
* Both roles: read [How RefKit works](/docs/getting-started/how-refkit-works.md) for the tracking and payout flow.
