Split Payouts in Percent Revenue Tiered Commissions

If you’re using Tiered Commissions based on a percentage of revenue, this feature helps you attribute payouts with even more precision. This feature attributes every dollar at the current payout rate until you’ve reached the next payout rate and so on. Here’s an example.

  • The example below uses a percent campaign. Enable the checkbox to ‘Use Split Payout.’
  • This tiered structure resets every 2 days. If transactions have happened since the last reset, these will factor into today’s accrual of stats toward a tiered structure.
  • Notice the 1st tier gives a payout of 10% of the revenue for each transaction.

  • Transition to the 2nd tier: If you’ve accrued 15.00 toward revenue and your next transaction adds 15.00 more revenue, that will put you into the 2nd tier with a payout of 15% of the revenue for that transaction.
    • We’ll attribute 5.00 of the current 15.00 transaction to the 1st tier at 10% payout.
    • And we’ll attribute the remaining 10.00 of the 15.00 to the 2nd tier at 15% payout.
    • This results in a ‘split payout’ that will show up in your transaction details at a payout rate of 13.33% of 15.00. This figure rounds from 1.99 to 2.00.
