Weighted Average Commission Rate

A weighted average commission rate weights each applicable percentage by its corresponding commission base rather than averaging partner percentages equally. It describes the effective rate across deals with different sizes, provided all included amounts use compatible revenue definitions and the same reporting scope.

Practical example

Illustrative example: A 20% share on $1,000 and 40% on $3,000 yields $1,400 commission on $4,000, or 35%.

Scaleo application: integration pattern

For a Scaleo implementation, include weighted average commission rate in the agreed commission specification and reconcile outcomes against qualifying events and revenue records. Confirm the configured product’s exact rule support and effective-date behavior before applying the result to a payable affiliate balance.
