What is Commission?
A commission is the payment a partner receives for helping to make a sale. It's the financial incentive at the heart of most performance-based partnerships, like affiliate or reseller programs. The commission is usually a percentage of the sale amount, but it can also be a flat fee.
For example, an affiliate might earn a 10% commission on every purchase made through their unique link. This model is very effective because it directly ties a partner's compensation to the results they deliver, motivating them to actively promote and sell your products.
