# Affiliate commission calculator: how much commission can you pay?

Enter basket, costs and target profit. You see the maximum commission and the profit at your planned commission.

**In short:** Maximum commission per order = contribution margin − target profit. Example: contribution margin €30, target profit €5: at most €25 commission, which is about 41% of a €60 basket.

## How to calculate affiliate commission: the ceiling

A commission only makes sense if profit remains after it. The calculator uses the contribution margin for that.

### Formula

Contribution margin = (1 − return rate) × (basket − cost of goods) − shipping and fees. Maximum commission = contribution margin − target profit.

## Frequently asked questions

How high can an affiliate commission be?

At most as high as your contribution margin per order minus your target profit.

Percentage or fixed amount?

A percentage scales with the basket, a fixed amount is easier to plan. Check both against your margin.

What is CPS?

CPS (cost per sale) is a model in which the partner receives a commission per sale.
