PayKickstart offers vendors easy ways to pay out affiliates automatically and manually for their related sales commissions.

Note:

Affiliate commissions DO NOT factor taxes if tax was charged for the transaction.
Commissions only factor the main transaction price (excluding tax).

PayKickstart has a number of fraud detection features built in to minimize the chances of fraudulent commissions. However, as a rule of thumb, it’s important to always be mindful of the affiliates promoting your campaigns and to monitor the commissions on a regular basis, looking for anything that seems suspicious or unusual – especially before paying out commissions.

All affiliate commissions will be in USD, even if your product is using another currency.

After an affiliate commission has been marked approved and processed for a transaction, vendors can view the related transaction to see the affiliate commission payout.
