How Agent Commission Works: 50% Every Month While the Merchant Stays

Knomart Agent commission is built around an ongoing merchant relationship. When a merchant pays for a Knomart subscription, the Agent who owns that merchant relationship receives 50% of what the merchant pays each month, for as long as the merchant stays.

The simple rule

The commission model is deliberately easy to explain: you keep half, every month, for as long as they stay. The percentage does not change between the paid merchant tiers.

What the numbers look like

• Free: the merchant pays $0, so recurring Agent commission is $0.
• A merchant running a $20 trade app pays $20 a month, so the agent earns $10 a month.
• That merchant adds a $15 app and pays $35, so the agent earns $17.50 a month.
• A merchant running three $40 apps pays $120, so the agent earns $60 a month.

This is recurring commission, not a one-time payment. If a merchant remains on a paid tier, the Agent's commission continues under the model.

Why the relationship matters

The commission is connected to the merchant relationship because the Agent's job does not end when the sale is made. The signing Agent supports their merchants, while technical issues can be escalated through the Agent to Knomart.

That creates a clear connection between service and recurring income: an Agent has a reason to help the merchant adopt Knomart properly and maintain the relationship over time.

What happens with a Free merchant?

A Free merchant produces no recurring subscription commission while they remain Free. However, the Agent who signs the merchant earns the $10 setup fee, and the signing Agent keeps the claim if that merchant upgrades later.

So Free and paid merchants should be understood differently. A paid merchant can generate recurring commission immediately. A Free merchant can begin as a relationship that may later become recurring commission if the merchant upgrades.

What Agents should say

Keep the explanation simple and honest: “You keep half, every month, for as long as they stay.” Do not promise a specific income level or assume that every merchant will remain subscribed.

The model rewards the right long-term behaviour: find real businesses, help them use Knomart, support them well and build relationships that can last.
