How the commission actually works

The percentage depends on two things

First, how much your customers pay us in total each month — your book. A bigger book puts you in a higher band, and the band is reviewed every month, so a good month moves you up rather than waiting for a yearly review.

Second, how long each customer has been with us. The rate is highest for a customer’s first three months, lower for the rest of the first year, and settles to a long-run rate from month thirteen onward.

That taper is deliberate and worth understanding before you start: the big number you earn when someone signs is not the number you earn from them in year two. The long-run rate is the one that builds a stable income, and it only works if customers stay.

When you get paid

Monthly, by bank transfer through Stripe. We set your bank details up once you are approved.

Every payment comes with a self-billed commission statement listing each customer, what they paid, which band you were in and the rate applied. That is the document your accountant wants, and it means you can check our arithmetic rather than take it on trust.

What happens if a customer leaves

You stop earning from them. There is no clawback on commission already paid unless the customer never paid us in the first place — for example a card that failed on the first invoice — which is set out in the agreement.

This is the honest downside of recurring commission: churn reduces your income without you doing anything wrong. It is also why looking after customers is part of the role rather than an optional extra.

What we do not do

No basic salary. No retainer. No advance against future commission. No expenses.

We are not going to dress that up. If you need predictable money next month, take a salaried job — that is a reasonable choice and this is not the right role for you.

Questions people ask

How much can I actually earn?

It depends entirely on how many customers you sign and keep, so any figure we published would be a guess dressed up as a promise. What we can tell you exactly is the percentages and how they change — those are in the agreement before you sell anything, and we send them with your application reply.

Is there a cap?

No. The top band is open-ended, and you keep earning from every customer who stays.

Do I get paid for leads that do not convert?

No. Commission is on revenue, so nothing is paid until a customer is paying us.

When is the first payment?

The month after your first customer pays their first invoice. Customers start on a free trial, so there is a gap between signing someone and being paid for them.
