Getting Paid: Flat Fees, Commission, or Both

# Getting Paid: Flat Fees, Commission, or Both A deal isn't always a single flat payment anymore. When a promoter proposes a [deal](#/help/influencer-deals-and-payment), they pick how you're paid — and that changes where your money shows up. ## The three ways to get paid - **Flat fee** — a fixed amount for your deliverable (e.g. one Reel), paid once the work is accepted. This is the classic influencer deal. - **Commission only** — no fixed payment. Instead you earn a **percentage of, or a flat amount per, every ticket you sell**. Your upside is uncapped, but you only earn when your audience actually buys. - **Combo** — a **flat fee plus commission**: a guaranteed base for the content, topped up by per-sale earnings. ## Your referral link When a deal includes commission (commission-only or combo), you're automatically set up as a seller for that event and given a **tracking link** (and often a code). Share it in your posts, bio, and stories. Anyone who clicks it and buys is **attributed to you**, and that's what your commission is calculated on — the same way it works for a [sales rep](#/help/sales-getting-started). Refunded orders drop back out of your attributed total. ## Where you see your money - **Flat-fee payouts** — paid through **Stripe Connect**, so make sure your Stripe account is connected. Each deal records the gross, the platform fee, and your net. See [Deals & Getting Paid](#/help/influencer-deals-and-payment). - **Commission earnings** — accrue on the sales your link drives and show in your [influencer dashboard](#/help/influencer-dashboard) under your deals, separate from any flat payout. ## Tips - For a commission or combo deal, lead people to your **tracking link** rather than a generic event link, or your sales won't be credited to you. - A combo deal is the best of both worlds — you're paid for the content *and* rewarded for every ticket you move.
