When do I actually pay?

You pay commission and the platform fee only on orders that pass verification. If an order is cancelled, returned, refunded, or flagged as fraudulent, the related commission is automatically reversed and you owe nothing on it.

How is the platform fee calculated?

The platform fee (or take rate) is a configurable percentage applied to qualifying performance, agreed with you during onboarding. It is transparent, shown on every commission record, and never changes retroactively for orders already attributed.

Do I need API integration?

API integration gives you the most accurate, real-time tracking. But it’s not mandatory — you can upload products, orders and order-status updates via CSV if you’re not ready to integrate.

How are commissions calculated?

Commission can be set at the product, campaign, or merchant level, with a platform default as a fallback. You only pay commission on verified, completed orders.

How do refunds and returns affect commission?

If an order is cancelled, returned, or refunded, the related commission is automatically reversed — so you never pay for sales that didn’t stick.

Pricing

Pay for performance, not promises

With Influencemart, merchants pay commission only on verified, completed orders — plus a transparent, configurable platform fee. No upfront cost to list products or launch campaigns, and every charge is tied to a real sale you can see.

How pricing works

One simple principle: you pay when a sale is verified

There are no listing fees, no setup fees, and no charge for clicks or impressions. Your cost is a commission you control, settled only on orders that pass verification, plus a platform fee on qualifying performance. If an order doesn’t stick, the commission is reversed and you pay nothing on it.

Our plans

Plans for every stage

Live pricing pulled straight from the platform. Start on performance and move to a tailored plan as your volume grows.

The model

Performance-based commission, transparent platform fee

Your total cost on any sale has two parts you can see on every commission record: the commission you set, and the platform fee on qualifying performance. Both are configurable, both are tied to real, verified orders.

Commission you control

You set this

You decide the commission rate that affiliates earn — and you can set it at different levels for different needs. A higher rate attracts more affiliate attention to a product or campaign; a platform default acts as a sensible fallback wherever you haven’t set a specific rate.

Per product — set a precise rate on individual items, ideal for high-margin or hero products.
Per campaign — boost a seasonal push, a new launch, or a clearance with a campaign-wide rate.
Merchant default — one fallback rate applied wherever a product or campaign rate isn’t specified.

Platform fee (take rate)

Configurable

On top of the affiliate commission, a configurable platform fee covers attribution, fraud screening, payouts to affiliates, reporting, and support. It is agreed with you during onboarding, applied only to qualifying performance, and shown transparently on every commission so there are never hidden charges.

Charged only on verified, completed orders — never on clicks or impressions.
A clear percentage agreed upfront, with no surprise add-ons.
Reversed alongside the commission whenever an order is refunded or returned.

A quick illustration

Suppose a buyer completes a verified order through an affiliate’s link. You owe the affiliate the commission you configured for that product or campaign, and the platform applies its agreed fee on the qualifying amount. Everything else — the click, the redirect, the tracking, the reporting — costs you nothing. Exact rates depend on your category and volume and are finalised with you during onboarding, so we don’t quote a single fixed rate here.

Step 1

Verified order

A real, completed sale is attributed to an affiliate.

Step 2

Commission + fee

Your configured commission and the platform fee are applied.

Step 3

Hold then settle

After the return window clears, the commission becomes payable.

When charges apply

You only pay once an order is truly verified

Every commission moves through a clear lifecycle. Nothing becomes a real cost to you until the order is confirmed and the return window has passed — and anything that falls through is reversed.

Pending

The order has been attributed to you and a commission has been created, awaiting the merchant to confirm the order.

Hold

The order is confirmed but in the return/refund window (or under review). Commission is locked until the hold period passes.

Approved

The order is verified. The commission is approved and moving toward becoming payable.

Payable

The hold has cleared. This commission is available in your balance and can be included in a payout request.

Paid

The commission has been paid out to you. This is a final state.

Rejected

The order was cancelled, returned, refunded, or failed verification, so the commission was reversed.

Integration support

API and CSV — included at every level

Accurate attribution is what makes performance pricing fair, so the integration that powers it is part of the standard offering, not a paid add-on. Connect however suits your stack.

Conversion & tracking API

Report orders and status changes in real time. Pass back the affiliate click_id so each sale is attributed to the right affiliate, with deduplication and validation built in.

CSV upload for non-technical teams

Not ready to integrate? Upload products, orders, and order-status updates as CSV files. Every row runs through the same validation and commission logic as the API.

Webhooks & status sync

Keep order states — confirmed, shipped, returned, refunded — in sync so commissions move correctly through hold and become payable only when an order truly sticks.

Onboarding assistance

Our team helps you map your tracking, capture click_id, and confirm attribution end-to-end before you go live, regardless of plan.

Transparent reporting

Every commission shows the order, the affiliate, the commission, and the platform fee — so your performance spend is always reconcilable against real sales.

Built for Nepal

Affiliate payouts settle to local methods your affiliates already use, so the network around your products keeps growing.

Pricing FAQ

Common questions about cost

No. Getting set up — listing products, creating campaigns, and connecting tracking — has no upfront fee. You only pay when the platform delivers a verified, completed order. Optional platform plans for higher volumes are available on request.
