Frequently Asked Questions

If a customer refunds their purchase, no commission is paid for that transaction. If the commission was already paid, it may be deducted from future payouts.
Commissions are calculated on the final amount paid by the customer after any discounts are applied. For example, if a customer uses a $10 discount on a $29 plan, you earn 30% of $19.
