What are affiliate commissions & rewards?

Affiliate commissions and rewards define how partners earn for driving results.


A commission structure determines:

What action earns a reward (sale, referral, lead)
How much is paid (percentage, fixed amount, recurring)
When it’s paid (one-time or ongoing)
Who qualifies (specific partners, products, or segments)

A flexible commission system lets you strategically incentivize behavior, not just pay for transactions.
