Affiliate Commission

Affiliate commission is commissions earned through an affiliate program. Commissions are usually earned on sales of affiliate products (flat dollar amount per sale or a preset % of the sale). Some affiliate programs, however, do pay per lead, or per click. Pay per lead means that commission is earned/paid for every lead provided by an affiliate. Pay per click means that commission is earned/paid for each click on an affiliate's link.
