FAQ

Quick answers

Short answers for the questions that usually come up first.

What happens when earned commission is below the draw?

The calculator shows a remaining draw balance rather than a positive commission payout for the period.

Can I use a recoverable or non-recoverable draw here?

The math is closest to a recoverable draw, since it compares earned commission directly with the advanced amount.
