Frequently asked questions
How is sales commission calculated?
Multiply the total sales by the commission rate expressed as a decimal. A 5% commission on £50,000 of sales is 50,000 × 0.05 = £2,500.
What is the difference between commission and total pay?
Commission is the variable amount earned purely from sales. Total pay adds any fixed base salary on top, so a rep on a base plus commission plan earns both regardless of how much they sell.
