Hypothetical Commission Calculator
Hypothetical Commission CalculatorExplore illustrative commission amounts using your own assumptions. These examples are not expected income or a payout schedule.
Illustrative only. These results are not expected income or a payout schedule. Actual commissions depend on qualifying completed, non-refunded orders.
Formula and assumptions
Formula: qualifying gross order amount × 10% × active referred brokers × qualifying orders per broker per month. The 12-month illustration multiplies the monthly result by 12.
Actual commissions depend on qualifying completed, non-refunded orders placed by active referred brokers. Refunded, cancelled, reversed and unsuccessful/non-completed orders do not qualify. The illustration assumes every entered order qualifies and that the same order amount, broker count and frequency continue for all 12 months. It does not model changing activity, refunds, costs or taxes. Actual income is not guaranteed. Paychex payment timing is separate.
A look at commission reporting
These edited affiliate portal views use fictional data for illustration. All names, contact details, addresses and figures are fictional. They are not actual earnings or typical results.
Commission, attribution and payments
Qualifying commission
The rate is 10% of gross purchases/orders made by brokers you referred. Only successfully completed, non-refunded orders qualify. Refunded, cancelled, reversed or unsuccessful/non-completed orders do not qualify.
Lifetime attribution, conditional commission
A referred broker remains attributed to you on a lifetime basis. Commission continues only while that broker remains active and makes qualifying orders. This is not a guarantee of lifetime income.
If a broker signs up without your affiliate link, the TradelineScore team can manually attribute the broker to you afterward when appropriate.
Payments through Paychex
Commissions are paid through Paychex, typically at the end of the month. Exact timing depends on the Paychex payroll schedule.
There is no minimum payout threshold. All earned commissions are paid regardless of amount.
Payout and tax onboarding are handled through Paychex. Calculator illustrations do not determine when a payment is made.
