Minimum guaranteed deals
Guarantee affiliates a minimum each period, in exchange for reaching goals.
A deal guarantees the affiliates in a group a minimum per month or quarter, if they reach every goal you set.
An affiliate who reaches every goal earns the greater of the minimum and their commissions. The difference is the top-up. If they miss a goal, they earn their commissions and no top-up.
For example, a deal has a $500 monthly minimum and one goal, 5 published posts. An affiliate publishes 5 posts and earns $320 in commissions, so their top-up is $180.
You create deals in Rewards. Owners and admins write them, and members can read them.
Creating a deal
| Setting | Options |
|---|---|
| Period | Monthly or Quarterly, from the 1st at 00:00 UTC. Quarters start in January, April, July and October |
| Start | The current period, or one of the next 12 months or 4 quarters |
| Length | 1 to 24 months, or 1 to 8 quarters |
| Minimum | An amount in USD, above $0 |
| Goals | One to three, one per metric |
| Groups | At least one |
A deal that starts in the current period is live at once and counts that period from its first day.
Goals
| Goal | What it counts |
|---|---|
| Published posts | Posts added in the period |
| Referred sales | Sales in the period while the affiliate was active. It counts sales, not customers |
| Referred revenue | The revenue from those sales |
All goals must be met, and each period stands on its own.
How a period closes
Fuul closes each period after it ends and stores the result. A later sale or a deleted post doesn't change it.
Who's in is decided at the close. An affiliate who leaves the group before the end is out, and one who joins on the last day is in for the whole period.
Suspended commissions don't count toward what an affiliate earned.
Top-ups
A top-up shows as earned. It isn't added to Pending payout or To pay. During a period, Top-ups shows what the deal would pay if the period closed now.
Changing a deal
| State | What you can do |
|---|---|
| Scheduled | Edit anything, or delete it |
| Live | Edit the name, groups and length, or deactivate it |
| Ended | Read its results, or edit the name, groups and length. A longer length reopens the deal, unless you deactivated it |
Deactivating ends the deal at once and can't be undone. The current period is void, with no result or top-up. Closed periods stand.
