# Manager Commissions

If your affiliate program includes assigning commissions to a manager on your team, Tracknow supports manager commissions.

A manager will be able to accumulate commissions from every conversion generated by affiliates that  are directly assigned under him.

Keep in mind that managers are internal admin users in the system, meaning members of your team, not affiliates.

{% hint style="info" %}
Keep in mind that managers cannot submit payment requests for their accumulated commissions, as they are not affiliates but internal team members. Manager commissions are reflected on all relevant conversions and are also available in reports.
{% endhint %}

### Configuring Commissions for Managers

Navigate to **Settings** → **User Management** → Click on the name of the manager you want to start assigning commissions → **Edit Manager Commissions** → **Enable Manager Commissions** → Select the commission calculation type and enter the commission rate.

#### Commission Types

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Commission Based" %}
A manager’s commission is calculated as a percentage of the affiliate’s commission.

**Example:**\
An affiliate generates a conversion with a $10 commission.\
The manager’s commission is set to 10% (commission-based).

In this case, the manager earns $1, resulting in a total of $11 in commission allocated between the affiliate and the manager.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Fixed Commission" %}
A manager’s commission is a fixed amount, not dependant on anything.

**Example:**\
An affiliate generates a conversion with a $10 commission.\
The manager’s commission is set to $2 (fixed-commission).

In this case, the manager earns $2, resulting in a total of $12 in commission allocated between the affiliate and the manager.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Amount Based" %}
A manager’s commission is calculated as a percentage of the conversion amount value.

**Example:**\
An affiliate generates a conversion with an amount value of $100.\
The manager’s commission is set to 2% (amount-based).

In this case, the manager earns $2.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Split Commission" %}
A manager’s commission is calculated as a percentage of the affiliate’s commission and the manager's commission will be deducted from the affialite's commission.

**Example:**\
Your camapign payouts are configured to reward affilaites with 10% of the conversion amount.\
Affialite generates a conversion with an amount value of $100.\
Affialite's commission should be $10.\
The manager’s commission is set to 50% (split-commission).

In this case, the manager earns $5, leaving the affialite with a commission of $5 instead of $10.\
Resulting in a total of $10 in commission allocated between the affiliate and the manager.
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
