# Commission & Payout

### 🧮 Reward Basis

Unless otherwise stated by AllScale, affiliate rewards are based on:

* Qualified referred merchants
* Qualified transactions
* Qualified platform fees recognized under the program

The exact calculation logic, settlement treatment, and final recognized amounts are determined by AllScale.

***

### ⏱️ Payout Timing

Affiliate rewards are not necessarily issued in real time.

Payout timing may depend on:

* Transaction settlement status
* Internal reconciliation
* Fraud and compliance review
* Minimum payout threshold
* Program operations and payout schedule

AllScale may define or update the payout schedule from time to time.

***

### 💼 Payout Method

Where applicable, affiliate payouts may be made through one of the following methods:

* Account balance
* Stablecoin payout
* Other payout method designated by AllScale

The supported payout method may vary depending on region, account status, or operational setup.

***

### 🚫 Exclusions and Adjustments

Commission may be withheld, adjusted, canceled, or reversed in cases including but not limited to:

* Ineligible referrals
* Ineligible transactions
* Refunds, reversals, or disputes
* Fraud, abuse, or suspicious activity
* Violations of the Partner Program rules
* Errors in attribution, reporting, or calculation

***

### 📌 Notes

* The Affiliate Program is designed to reward real merchant growth, not artificial activity
* Final reward amounts are always subject to AllScale verification and reconciliation
* AllScale may revise commission structure, payout timing, or incentive design as the program evolves
