Earnings
The Earnings page in the Creator Portal shows you exactly how much you have earned, what is pending, and what has been paid out.
How Commissions Work
When a customer uses your discount code or tracking link to make a purchase:
- The order is attributed to you
- A commission is calculated based on the program’s rate (e.g., 15% of the order subtotal)
- The commission enters a pending state for a hold period (typically 14 days)
- After the hold period, the commission moves to approved
- When the brand runs a payout, approved commissions are sent to you
Commission Statuses
| Status | Meaning |
|---|
| Pending | Order was placed, commission calculated. Waiting for the hold period to pass. |
| Approved | Hold period passed, commission is ready for payout. |
| Paid | Commission has been sent to you via your chosen payout method. |
| Reversed | The order was refunded and the commission was cancelled. |
The hold period protects brands from paying commissions on orders that get returned. Once an order clears the hold period without a refund, your commission is safe.
Earnings Dashboard
The dashboard shows three headline numbers:
- Total Earned — lifetime commissions (approved + paid)
- Pending — commissions still in the hold period
- Available — approved commissions ready for payout
Below the headlines, you will find:

By Campaign
If you are in multiple campaigns, this section breaks down earnings per campaign so you can see which partnerships are most profitable.
Commission Calculation
Commissions are calculated on the order subtotal (product prices before tax and shipping). The formula depends on the type:
- Percentage — e.g., 15% of the 100subtotal=15 commission
- Flat fee — e.g., $5 per order regardless of order value
Some campaigns offer tiered commissions where your rate increases as you hit milestones:
| Milestone | Rate |
|---|
| First 10 orders | 10% |
| 11-50 orders | 15% |
| 51+ orders | 20% |
Check your earnings regularly to stay motivated and to catch any orders that might need attention. If you notice a missing attribution, contact the brand through the campaign page.
