Frequently asked questions

How does the affiliate commission calculator work?
For percentage commissions, it multiplies the sale amount by the commission rate. For fixed commissions, it uses the fixed amount. In both cases, it multiplies the result by the recurring payment count.
Why calculate VAT and SEPA fees after the commission?
The commission tells you what the affiliate earns. VAT and SEPA fees tell you the merchant cash-out needed to pay that commission in Europe.
Are SEPA fees always €0.35?
No. This estimate uses Stripe France pricing to stay clear. Your real fee can vary by contract, country, or volume.
Is this tax advice?
No. The tool uses standard VAT rates for an operational estimate. Your final tax treatment still depends on your accounting rules.
