Commission Calculator
Use a commission calculator to solve a simple percentage commission or model a tiered commission structure with base pay, flat commission, and sales brackets.
How to use this calculator
How commission and tiered commission are calculated
A simple commission plan usually uses total sales and a percentage rate to determine the commission earned. More complex plans can add a base commission or change the commission rule as sales move through different price tiers.
- Use Simple commission mode when you need to solve commission, sales price, or commission rate from the other two values.
- Use Tiered commission mode when payout changes across sales brackets or when a base commission amount must be added before or alongside variable commission.
- Review the tier table carefully, because tiered commission applies each rule only to the sales inside that bracket rather than to the full sales price.

FAQ
Common Commission questions
How do I calculate a simple sales commission?
Multiply the sales price by the commission percentage to estimate the commission earned. For example, a 3% commission on $25,000 in sales produces $750 in commission.
What is a tiered commission structure?
A tiered commission structure changes the commission rule after certain sales thresholds are reached, so each bracket of sales can earn a different rate or payout amount.
Can base commission and tiered commission be combined?
Yes. Many plans pay a base commission first, then add either a flat commission or a tiered variable commission on top of that base amount.
