Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: How do I track my commissions?

A: Commissions are tracked by using Broker’s prefix of their license xxx-xxx and the agent’s suffix, creating a 6-digit account number that your clients use when they log in to make a purchase. Using our Affiliate Tracking App, your commission will be tracked for your review based on purchases made by your client.

A: Yes, you can give your 6-digit code to your entire client database. All client transactions will be tracked by your code.
