Default commission Rules
ℹ️ Commission Meanings
Commission is the reward paid to affiliates when they successfully refer customers to your store.
The commission amount depends on:
The commission type you choose
The order value
Which order components are included (discount, shipping, tax)
Commission is calculated from the order total, based on your selected settings:
Product value (always included)
Discount (optional)
Shipping fee (optional)
Taxes (optional)
In Jaka app, this is the main commission rule used for all affiliate orders, unless you add advanced or product-specific rules.
You need to configure three things:
Commission type
Commission amount
Cookie duration
ℹ️ Commission Types
Jaka supports three commission types. Choose the one that fits your business model.
Percent of Sale
The affiliate earns a percentage of the order value.
Commission is calculated based on the product total
Shipping, tax, and extra fees are excluded by default
Example
Order value: $100
Commission rate: 15%
Affiliate earns: $15
✅ Best for most stores ✅ Scales automatically with order value
Flat Amount (Per Order)
The affiliate earns a fixed amount for each order, no matter the order size.
Example
Flat commission: $5
Order value: $50 or $200
Affiliate earns: $5
✅ Simple and predictable ✅ Good for fixed-margin products
Flat Rate per Item
The affiliate earns a fixed amount for each product item sold.
Example
Flat rate per item: $3
Quantity purchased: 4 items
Affiliate earns: $12
✅ Ideal for bulk or multi-quantity purchases
⏱️ Cookie Duration
Cookie duration defines how long an affiliate referral is valid.
If a customer clicks an affiliate link, the affiliate will earn commission for purchases made within this time period.
Example
Cookie duration: 30 days
Customer purchases within 30 days → commission is earned
Purchases after 30 days → no commission (unless lifetime commission is enabled)
➕ Include Discount, Shipping, and Taxes
These options control what is included in commission calculation.
Include discount → commission is calculated after discount
Include shipping → shipping cost is included
Include taxes → tax amount is included
You can enable or disable each option based on your preference.
