Definition
Net revenue commission pays affiliates on the retained revenue base rather than gross checkout amount. The exact definition of net revenue depends on the merchant's exclusions and finance policy.
B2B SaaS context
SaaS teams use net revenue commission to keep partner payouts aligned with the revenue they actually keep. It is especially important when partial refunds, credits or discounts are common.
Operator note
Document every exclusion from the commission base and reconcile against billing records so partners can understand adjustments without finance back-and-forth.
