Binary Plan

The most popular MLM compensation plan. Each member has exactly two legs, Left and Right, and earns commission based on the weaker-leg volume.

Structure

Direct recruits placed in your Left or Right leg (manual or auto-spillover)
Sponsor bonus, one-time bonus on each direct recruit
Pair matching bonus, earn when both legs hit target volume (weaker-leg pays)
Matching bonus, earn a % on pair-bonuses of your downline
Rank bonus, extra commission as your combined volume grows

Common configurations

Pair bonus: $50-$500 per pair match
Pair cap: daily / weekly / monthly cap per member
Leg balance: flushing rules if one leg is much bigger
Matching: 10% on your 1st-level, 5% on 2nd, 3% on 3rd

Variants we support

Spillover binary, overflow automatically goes to underutilized legs
Unbalanced binary, pair match with ratio 1:2 or 1:3
Compression binary, skip inactive members in commission path
Weekly/daily cycle binary, high-frequency small payouts

Best for

Fast-growing networks where "power leg" recruiters want to earn from spillover, and MLMs that want simpler commission calculation (just two legs, clear math).

How we configure it

Share your plan doc, commission percentages, pair values, cycle cap, flush rules, rank thresholds, and we'll configure it in our rule engine (typically 2-5 days).
