Commission audit

Audit FirstPromoter commissions before payout close

A FirstPromoter commission audit recalculates the approved revenue basis, refund adjustments, and commission terms before finance accepts the monthly payout total.

Direct answer

FirstPromoter Commission Audit for Finance

A FirstPromoter commission audit checks whether monthly affiliate amounts agree with the approved revenue basis, refund or chargeback adjustments, configured rate, and payout policy. Allocora can rerun that logic as a versioned calculation and preserve the result, statements, exports, and review evidence before payment.

Calculation method

FirstPromoter commission audit formula

Compare the upstream monthly payout with an independently governed commission calculation using the approved inputs and adjustments.

  • gross commission = gross eligible revenue × commission rate
  • refund adjustment = eligible refunds × commission rate
  • audited commission = gross commission − refund adjustment + approved adjustments
  • variance = upstream monthly payout − audited commission

Worked calculation

Synthetic example — not customer data

Eligible revenue is $8,000 under a 15% rule, producing $1,200 gross commission. A $500 eligible refund creates a $75 deduction, leaving $1,125. If the upstream payout is $1,100, finance must resolve the −$25 variance.

Source-backed answers

Source-backed answers about FirstPromoter commission audits

These answers use current FirstPromoter documentation to distinguish upstream commission and payout features from Allocora’s governed recalculation and evidence layer.

What should a FirstPromoter commission audit verify?

FirstPromoter supports percentage or flat monetary commissions, recurring terms, plan-specific rewards, and several payout methods. A finance audit should therefore verify the configured revenue basis, rate, refund treatment, payout period, and approved adjustments instead of assuming one universal FirstPromoter formula or payment path.

Product boundary

Allocora calculates, explains, exports, reconciles, and proves expected obligations. It does not move money, collect bank credentials, provide KYC/AML, or file taxes.
