How commissions are computed
Sales = clicks × conversion rate.
Gross revenue = sales × average order value.
Payable = gross × (1 − return rate).
Commission = payable × commission %.
EPC = commission / clicks — para comparar ofertas.
FAQ
- What is EPC?
- Earnings Per Click: net income per click you send to the merchant. Best metric to compare offers.
- How do I estimate conversion rate at the start?
- Start with 1–2% for general traffic. Buyer-intent niches 4–8%. Cold traffic 0.3–0.8%.
- Should I subtract returns?
- Yes. Most networks pay on net sales. 3–8% is typical for physical; 1–2% for digital.
- Good cookie window?
- 30 days is standard. Expensive niches benefit from 60–90 days; some programs are last-click only.
