Host Commissions and Hierarchies

Hosts run crews, and Host commissions pay them for it. This article covers how a Host earns and how their crew's performance rolls up into their payout.
How a Host earns
When you build a commission for a Host, you choose the model:
Per admission: the Host earns a set rate on each admission attributed to their crew
Percentage of crew: the Host earns a percentage of what their crew delivers
Either way, the Host's earnings are driven by their crew's performance, so the person running the team is paid for how the team performs, not just for holding the title.
Attribution stays individual
The hierarchy never muddies the numbers. Every guest remains attributed to the promoter who brought them, each promoter earns their own commission on their own admissions, and the Host's commission is calculated on top. Nothing is taken from a promoter's earnings to pay the Host: they're two separate commissions paid by you.
Tracking a crew's campaign
Open a campaign to see the crew view live: how many Hosts are on it, invites and admissions across the crew, average invites and admits per member, and the running total owed. The turned up percentage tells you how much of the crew's list actually converted, which is the number that separates real crews from paper ones.
Host commissions with tiers
Host commissions support performance tiers too, like a base rate that steps up once the crew hits a volume target, so your Hosts have the same reason to push deep into the night as your promoters do. Build them the same way as promoter commissions. See Building a Commission Structure.
