2.6 Define Bonus Settings

Bonus settings allow you to award bonuses to members when they meet a certain condition. For example, you can advance someone to another member type or award a commission bonus once a member has recruited a certain number of members. You can define all bonus settings through the Setup->Bonus Settings menu. The bottom section on this page allows you to create new settings, and looks like:

You can enter any name you wish for the bonus setting. There are two different bonus types available; an advancement bonus which is used to automatically advance someone to another member type, and a commission bonus which is used to award commission. You are not required to define a member type, but can if you only want a certain member type to receive this bonus.

The last select box on this form allows you to specify one of three conditions which must occur in order for the bonus to be awarded. You will be able to further define the new bonus setting on the next page. Using the above example, this bonus will be awarded everything a Basic member personally recruits a certain number of members.

Once you have completed the four questions, submit the form and a second page will be displayed allowing you to complete the bonus setting. The contents of this page depends on what you defined for the bonus setting, and will look something like:

The first part of this page asks for specific information regarding the condition, such as the number of member someone must recruit. The second section asks for either the member type to advance the member to, or the commission amount to award to the member. Using the above example, once a Basic member personally recruits 3 members of any member type, they will be automatically advanced to a Gold member.

Once you have completed this page, submit the form to create the new bonus setting. Continue creating all needed bonus settings for your online business using the same process as above.
