How Commissions Work

Understanding your payout structure, rates, and when commissions are earned.

When Do I Earn a Commission?

You earn a commission when one of your leads reaches the "Signed - Deal" stage. This means the lead has been qualified, vetted, and has signed a deal with the law firm.

Not all submitted leads will reach this stage — only leads that meet the criteria and complete the full process generate commissions.

Payout Types

Your commission rate depends on the tort type and your specific agreement:

Flat Rate

A fixed dollar amount per billable lead. For example, $150 per signed NEC Baby Formula lead.

Percentage

A percentage of the deal amount. For example, 10% of a $5,000 deal = $500 commission.

Your Payout Structure

Your My Payout Structure section shows the rates configured for your account, broken down by tort type. If you don't see a rate for a particular tort, the default rate for that tort type applies.

When Are Commissions Calculated?

Commissions are calculated in real-time based on:

  1. Your leads that have reached "Signed - Deal"
  2. The payout rate configured for your affiliate account and the tort type
  3. The deal amount (for percentage-based rates)
