About this calculator
Commission plans are either a flat percentage of the sale, or progressive tiers where higher slabs of the sale amount earn a higher rate. This calculates the payout either way, plus your total earnings if there's a base salary involved.

Frequently asked questions
How does tiered commission work here?
Each tier's rate only applies to the portion of the sale that falls within that tier's range - not the whole amount. So a sale that crosses into a higher tier still earns the lower rate on the earlier portion.
Can I edit the tier boundaries and rates?
Yes - the default tiers are just a starting point. Change the thresholds and percentages to match your actual commission plan.
What's OTE?
On-target earnings - your base salary plus expected commission, shown here as base + the commission calculated from your sale amount.
