Two Legs. One Rule. Automatic Calculation.
Binary Plan — Commission Types
In the Binary plan, every distributor has exactly two positions beneath them — a left leg and a right leg. They recruit members into these two positions, and those members recruit further, building two parallel trees.
Pair bonuses are earned when volume accumulates on both legs at the configured ratio. For example, a 1:1 ratio means equal volume on both sides triggers a bonus. A 1:2 ratio means the strong leg must accumulate twice the weak leg's volume. The weaker leg sets the pace — distributors are motivated to develop both legs, not just one.
Carry-forward volume means unmatched surplus from the strong leg rolls into the next cycle rather than being lost. Capping limits the maximum pair bonus per cycle to protect business sustainability. Flush volume (if configured) clears the strong leg at cycle end to keep growth incentive active. All parameters are set at installation.
Binary Plan Settings — Configured at Installation
Every Binary plan parameter is configured by our engineering team during installation to your exact specification. You describe the rules. We install them. The engine calculates from day one.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Pair Ratio | The volume ratio required between left and right legs to trigger a pair bonus. Common configurations: 1:1 (equal), 1:2, 2:1. Sets the balance requirement that motivates distributors to develop both legs. |
| Pair Bonus Amount | The cash value paid per pair matched. Can be a fixed amount or percentage of matched volume. Credited to the Loyalty Wallet automatically on calculation. |
| Capping | Maximum pair bonus payable per day or per cycle. Protects business sustainability — distributors with very large networks cannot earn unlimited pair bonuses within a single period. |
| Carry-Forward | Whether unmatched strong-leg surplus carries into the next cycle (enabled) or is flushed (disabled). When enabled, distributors retain volume progress across cycles. |
| Carry-Forward Cap | Maximum volume that can carry forward if carry-forward is enabled. Prevents indefinite accumulation while rewarding active distributors. |
| Flush Volume | Whether the strong leg volume resets to zero at cycle end. When flushed, distributors must maintain consistent activity to earn pair bonuses — increasing retention incentive. |
| Matching Bonus | Percentage of pair bonuses earned by direct recruits that flows to the upline. Configurable across multiple levels. Creates a residual income stream for senior distributors. |
| Placement Rule | How new members are placed when the sponsor's legs are full — weak leg priority, breadth-first, or custom rule. Governs spillover behaviour across the genealogy. |
