Commissions

⚠️ A commission is simply a rule that defines when and how a transaction should be created from a conversion.

In PalDock, commissions define when and how a transaction with a payout is created from a conversion. While conversions are tracked performance metrics, they only become transactions (with a payout and result) when a commission applies.
Commissions give you full control over payout logic – for both what you receive from advertisers and what you pay your partners. You can:
  • Choose amount types: fixed value, percentage, or a custom calculation using system and postback fields.
  • Apply conditions such as offer, advertiser, conversion type, traffic source, or channel.
  • Fine-tune how transactions are handled with features like transaction type, auto-approve, auto-set result, inherit result, recurrence limits, and deduplication.
  • Organize commissions into commission groups, each with one or more affiliates (an affiliate can belong to only one group).
  • Use commission schedules to set time-based changes in amounts, types, or display labels.
  • Keep commissions active or inactive depending on when they should apply, including the ability to set them for the workspace only or for affiliates only.
  • Improve clarity with Display amount (a clean label instead of a complex formula) and Commission detail (a short description shown in the table).
  • Track performance with automatic reporting metrics like ROI, calculated from your amounts and partner payouts.
Whether you are a network, advertiser, or affiliate, the Commissions section is where you configure payout rules, structure partner incentives, and ensure transactions are created and valued exactly as you need.
