Editing a Commission Change
When you click on the Commission Changes icon, you will be brought to a list of all commission changes for that offer. Each unique change is listen in a row, with the default commission listed as a reference. Use the pencil icon to edit the commission change.
Editing a commission change will not immediately affect an affiliate's payment for the commission to which you are applying the change. Offerit will simply set the original commission change to end, while creating a new commission change with the edited details in its place. For every edit that has been made to a commission, a new commission change will be created in its place with updated details. This allows Offerit to keep an accurate historical track of commission change records. To delete a change, use the trash can icon, but be warned that there is no way to undelete a deleted commission change.
Adding a Commission Change
First, you will need to fill in the Username or Login ID of the Affiliate account(s) you wish to set up a commission change for. If this field is blank, set to Default, or set to ALL, the Commission Change will be applied to all affiliates. Then, choose the Country(s) you want the change to effect. To select more than one country, click a country while holding the Ctrl key. For faster selecting, you can click while holding the Shift key, which will select all countries between your newly clicked country and your previously clicked country. Lastly, select a Change Type.
- Standard Change - This is used for any normal change.
- Disable Commission - This is used to turn off the commission for these settings.
- Temporary Change - This is used to set up a temporary commission change, based on a time period.
- Tiered Commission - This is used to set up tiers to increase commission based on the number of signups from this affiliate.

Use the "Start on Sale" box to determine when you want the default commission to change for affiliates.
