Solution

This affiliate commission system calculates payouts by analyzing multiple performance factors to reward top-performing partners. The calculator first establishes base commission rates specific to each product category (electronics, fashion, beauty, and home goods), with fashion and beauty offerings earning higher rates to incentivize promotion in these categories.

Performance bonuses are determined by examining both referral volume and conversion quality. Affiliates generating higher traffic (100+ monthly referrals) with exceptional conversion rates (15%+) earn maximum volume bonuses. The system incorporates special promotion multipliers that increase commission rates by 25% during promotional periods, encouraging timely marketing efforts. Final calculations combine all factors to determine precise commission amounts on each sale, creating a transparent and motivating payment structure.

How it works

The decision graph processes affiliate performance data through three key stages:

  1. Category Rate Determination: Assigns appropriate base commission rates and potential volume bonus caps according to product category, with rates ranging from 5-15%.

  2. Performance Evaluation: Analyzes two key metrics - monthly referral quantity and conversion rate quality - to calculate volume bonuses and performance multipliers. Higher-performing affiliates receive bonuses up to 5% and multipliers up to 1.2x.

  3. Commission Calculation: Applies the promotion multiplier (1.25x for special promotions) and combines all factors to calculate the final commission rate and exact payout amount for each sale.

This tiered approach ensures affiliates are rewarded proportionally to their contribution, with top performers potentially earning over triple the base commission rate.
