Sales Commission Calculator

Figure out what you'll actually take home

What is this? Commission structures vary wildly: real estate agents take 5-6% of sale price split between buyer/seller agents. Car sales gets 25% of the profit above the pack. SaaS SDRs get $100-300 per qualified lead. This calculator handles any structure.

Common structures: Straight commission (% of sale), tiered (higher % as you hit quotas), residual (recurring revenue), and override (commission on reps you manage).

Who it's for: Sales reps comparing job offers, real estate agents estimating take-home, managers designing commission plans.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is commission calculated?

Commission = Sale Amount × Commission Rate. For tiered plans, once you hit a threshold, the rate may increase for additional sales in that period.

What is a draw against commission?

A draw is an advance on future commissions. Repaying the draw from earned commissions reduces your take-home until the draw is recouped.

Are commissions taxed differently?

No — commission income is taxed at the same rates as regular salary/wages. It's all ordinary income subject to income tax and FICA.
