The 5–3–2% ladder applies to different network levels, so the tree and calculation base must be visible.
How the three levels work
- Level one is described as 5% of the sub-affiliate's profit.
- Level two is 3% and level three is 2%.
- Commission depends on the actual profit generated by the relevant partner.
A commission example
Profit of €2,000, €1,500 and €1,000 across the three levels produces €100, €45 and €20.
The applicable base
Affiliate A refers B with the dedicated referral link, and B later refers C. The statement is checked in two stages: first verify that B and C sit on the expected network levels, then apply the relevant 5%, 3% or 2% rate to the actual base for that level. If an account is attached to the wrong branch, the attribution has to be corrected before any percentage calculation is trusted.
Tree and attribution errors
- Use the dedicated referral link.
- Record the invited partner's date and username.
- Verify placement in the network tree.
- Reconcile the calculation base, not only the final amount.
Do not apply the percentage to player deposits when the T&C define partner profit as the base.
Reviewing the statement
A transparent referral tree and a defined commission base matter more than the number of levels in a presentation.
Reviewing the network
For every referred partner, retain the level, identifier, period and commission base. The 5%, 3% and 2% rates apply to their respective levels rather than to the whole tree. Check that an account is not counted in two branches and exclude self-related accounts. The statement should be traceable down to every sub-affiliate.

Understanding the 5–3–2 ladder
The percentage follows the referred partner level, not the number of players. Reports should show the chain from your account to the partner and underlying base.
Confirm whether the percentage applies to partner commission, program revenue or another amount.
