How to Calculate Affiliate Commission
Affiliate commission is usually a percentage of qualifying sales. A useful estimate separates gross commission from costs so you can see what remains.
Quick formula
Gross commission = Product price × Commission rate × Products sold. Estimated net = Gross commission − Other costs.
Worked example
If a product costs Rp150,000, the commission rate is 8%, and 40 products are sold, gross commission is Rp480,000. If other costs are Rp50,000, estimated net earnings are Rp430,000.
Practical tips
- Use the commission rate shown in your actual affiliate dashboard.
- Separate gross commission from costs such as content production or paid promotion.
- Remember that refunds, cancelled orders and qualifying-sale rules can change the final payout.
