How does commission work?

Adtraction allows partners to earn commission from sending traffic to our advertisers.

Typically, commission is earned once a visitor does a certain action on the brand's website, for example completing a purchase which is the most common for e-commerce advertisers. What exactly will earn you the commission, and how much the commission is, is presented on the brand's presentation.

If you have a selected channel that is approved for the program, the commission for that channel will also appear here.

A percentage commission earns you commission based on the order value (excluding VAT and shipping fees), so for 9% commission, an order of 100 GBP will earn you 9 GBP.

Some programs instead have a fixed commission, on these you will instead earn the same commission per conversion regardless of order value.

Some advertiser programs use "pending" conversions. Commission earned on these brand's will not go straight into your account balance, but will instead need to be approved by the brand first. Information about this can be found at the Brand's presentation page.

For this program for example transactions will start out as pending, and if they are not rejected within 30 days they will be automatically approved. Once approved, they will appear in your account balance.

For a program that does not use pending it will instead say "Automatic" in the Transactions row, and this commission will be added to your account balance straight away.
