What is a commission?
A commission is a form of variable pay given to an employee or agent for facilitating or completing a transaction. It is usually a percentage of the total sale price, though it can also be a flat fee. Commissions act as an incentive to reward high performance and are common in industries like real estate, recruitment, and retail sales.

How our calculator is different from others
Most tools give you a single “total” and stop there. We believe in providing a clear breakdown so you can see exactly where the money goes.
Unlike other calculators, ours gives a detailed earnings breakdown which no other calculator provides. We show you more than just one number:
Gross Commission: The raw percentage of the sale.
Bonus/Flat Fee Inclusion: How your extra incentives affect the final take-home.
The “Company Share”: See the remaining balance of the sale after your commission is deducted.
This transparency allows you to see the full financial picture of the transaction, ensuring there are no surprises when pay day arrives.
Let the calculator do the heavy lifting
You excel at the art of the sale; let us handle the arithmetic. Our calculator removes the “maths wall” between you and your hard-earned rewards.

Example: If you sell a property for £400,000 at a 1.5% commission rate: £400,000 × 0.015 = £6,000 commission.
FAQs
What is a "Draw" against commission?
A draw is an advance payment given to a salesperson, which is later deducted from their earned commissions. Our calculator helps you see if your total earnings cover your draw.
Does commission include VAT/GST?
Usually, commissions are calculated on the “net” sale price (the price before tax). Always check your contract to see if you earn on the gross or net amount.
Can I calculate tiered commissions?
Tiered commissions (where the rate increases after you hit a certain goal) are best calculated by breaking the sale into parts. Use our calculator for each tier to find your total.
