Approved partners get a referral code they can share; every sale through their code earns commission. Partners earn money two ways: **1. Direct commission** — on every sale you personally make through your code. Rate scales with rank: - Starter (0+ sales): 10% direct commission - Rising (10+ sales): 12% direct commission - Pro (20+ sales): 15% direct commission **2. Network bonus** — every partner additionally earns a flat **5% on every sale made by anyone they personally recruit into the program**, forever. The recruit's rank doesn't matter, your rank doesn't matter — if someone you brought in sells a Case X, you get 5% of that sale. Example: you're a Pro partner (15%). You bring Sarah into the program. Sarah sells a $699 4TB Case X. Sarah earns $69.90 (10% Starter rate).
