Commissions, statements, and payouts
Proposed commission base, marginal tiers, close, tax, statements, and payout controls.
What this guide covers
Proposed commission base, marginal tiers, close, tax, statements, and payout controls.
Eligible Gross Billings
The proposed commission base is the amount actually charged after an affiliate discount, excluding indirect taxes and reduced by refunds, partial refunds, chargebacks, non-cash consideration, and confirmed fraud. Store or payment-provider fees would be displayed separately under the recommended model.
MVP commission is proposed for the first qualifying acquisition purchase only. Renewals, existing customers, tests, free transactions, and restored purchases would not earn acquisition commission.
Progressive marginal tiers
These rates and the reporting currency remain proposed until Finance approval. Marginal calculation avoids a cliff where one extra unit retroactively changes commission on an entire month.
- 10% on the first 5,000 of monthly eligible billings.
- 11% on the next 5,000.
- 12.5% on the next 15,000.
- 14% on the next 75,000.
- 16% on the next 400,000.
- 20% only on eligible billings above 500,000.
Close and payout transparency
Statements will identify the period, eligible billings, tier slices, refunds and chargebacks, quality-policy version, reserves, tax withholding, payable amount, payout status, reference, and dispute deadline. Corrections will create a new version or a linked adjustment rather than silently rewriting history.
Payout will require an active approved affiliate, verified bank and tax profile, final close, no unresolved hold, minimum payable amount, and maker-checker approval. No income or payout amount is guaranteed.
Authoritative reference points
Store rules, privacy requirements, advertising guidance, and law can change. The current official source and the separately approved ShareKeyX policy control at launch.
