Reward types: sale, lead, and recurring

How each reward mode works and when to use it.

Traaaction supports three reward types. Pick the one that matches what your partners actually influence.

SALE

Triggered by a one-time purchase. The commission is calculated from the net amount (after tax) and can be a flat value or a percentage.

  • Example: 10% of each new $99 plan sale.
  • Hold period: 30 days (to cover chargebacks).

LEAD

Triggered by a signup, demo booking, or any lead action you choose to track. Flat amount only.

  • Example: €5 per qualified signup.
  • Hold period: 3 days (leads don't usually get refunded).

RECURRING

Triggered by a subscription. A commission is created on the first invoice and again on each renewal, up to a configurable number of months (recurring_max, or null for lifetime).

  • Example: 20% for 12 months on each subscription.
  • Hold period: 30 days per month (to cover cancellations).
  • The first month is tagged RECURRING, not SALE, if a subscription is present.

What if the amount is zero?

Trials, credits, and fully discounted sales (grossAmount <= 0) are skipped. No commission is created.
