Multi-level commission

What is multi-level affiliate commission?

Multi-level (or multi-tier) affiliate commission is a compensation structure where affiliates are rewarded for not only the sales they directly generate but also for the sales made by affiliates they've referred to the program.
This structure encourages affiliates to focus on generating sales themselves and recruiting and supporting other affiliates. Affiliates can earn additional commissions from the sales generated by their referral network, creating a cascading effect where affiliates can earn passive income from the efforts of those they've recruited.


How does multi-level commission work?

Multi-level commission is available for affiliate programs. 

Please note that the  partner portal must have your domain connected in order for this feature to be available. Here's how to do that. The program website domain and the partner portal domain have to match.

If someone visits your website through an affiliate link and proceeds to sign up for your affiliate program, the original affiliate will automatically be associated as the referring partner. No additional integration is required.

Both the direct and referring affiliates are paid their full commission amounts independently. The multi-tier commission is always added on top of the default commission, ensuring affiliates at both levels are fairly rewarded for their contributions.
