      Commission Rates: Where to View Them and How to Understand Them

      A guide to finding and testing your commission rates across advertiser programs.

      What are Commission Rates?

      Commission rates show how much you’ll earn for promoting different advertisers. You can view your current, upcoming, and historic commission rates across all programs you’re approved for. These rates help you track how your earnings may change based on promotions, opportunities and advertiser rule changes.

      Where to Find Commission Rates

      You can view commission rates in two areas:

      • Finance > Commissions

      • Partners > Advertisers > View Advertiser > Commission Rates tab

      View All Commission Rates in Your Settings

      To see all the advertisers you're working with and their commission rates:

      1. Go to Finance

      2. Select Commissions

      Here you’ll find a table listing every advertiser you're approved for. You can:

      • Search by advertiser name

      • Toggle to view active, upcoming or historic rates

      • Download the list as CSV, JSON, or XML

      To switch between views, use the dropdown above the table that says Current Rates.

      Understand Opportunity-Adjusted Rates

      If you've been approved for an opportunity with a commission boost, you’ll see how it affects your rate in the Opportunities affecting commission rates table. These increases are temporary and automatically applied while the opportunity is active.

      Example:
      If your base rate is 5% and an opportunity boosts your rate by 50%, your commission increases to 7.5%.

      Test How Commission Rules Apply

      Use the Test feature to see what rate would apply in different scenarios:

      1. Go to Finance > Commissions

      2. Click Test a Commission Rate

      3. Choose an advertiser

      4. Enter parameters like:

        • customer = return

        • device = mobile

      The platform will show which commission rule applies based on your inputs.

      This is especially useful to see how commission rules change based on new vs. returning customers, devices, or other parameters.

      View Commission Rates via Advertiser profiles

      1. Go to Partners > Advertisers

      2. Select View Advertiser

      3. Go to the Commission Rates tab

      Here you’ll see:

      • The advertiser’s default commission

      • All custom rules, sorted by priority

      • Toggle to view active, upcoming or historic rates

      • Option to export any view in CSV, JSON, or XML
