Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is a standard commission rate?
There is no single standard rate because it changes based on the industry. Software sales might pay 10% to 15%, while selling physical products in a store might only pay 3% to 6%.
Are commission payouts taxed?
Yes. The government considers commission payouts to be part of your normal income, meaning they are taxed just like a regular salary.
What is a draw against commission?
A draw is basically an advance loan from your employer based on the sales they expect you to make. If you earn more commission than your draw, you keep the extra. If you earn less, you usually have to pay back the difference.
Can I use this for affiliate marketing?
Yes! Just enter the total sales you generated through your affiliate link into the 'Sales Amount' box, and enter your affiliate payout percentage. It works exactly the same.
Is my financial data saved anywhere?
No. Your calculations are done entirely inside your browser. We never save your financial numbers or send them to a server.
