The ASEA Compensation Plan provides 7 ways to get paid. In order to earn commissions (Retail, Preferred Customer, Fast Start, Team Commissions & Director’s Bonus) you must be active by generating a minimum of 100 PV (personal volume) monthly. This can be done through personal purchases or through retail and preferred customer sales. To earn additional commissions (Check Match & Leadership Pool), you must generate a minimum of 200 PV monthly, which can also be achieved through personal purchases or through retail and preferred customer sales. All commissions are paid weekly.
RETAIL SALES
Retail Sales are just one way to make a profit. Sell some ASEA and increase your earnings! Here’s how it works. As an Associate, you can purchase ASEA products at the wholesale price, sell them at the retail price, and then pocket the difference. Or you can send someone to your website where they can purchase ASEA products at the retail price and we will pay you $30, the difference between the retail ($150) and wholesale price ($120). The volume generated from retail sales is 100CV (Commissionable Volume) per case and counts towards personal volume requirements and is added to your lesser volume leg.
PREFERRED CUSTOMER BONUS
When you sign up a Preferred Customer, you’ll both benefit! Your Preferred Customer will get a discount on the product with wholesale pricing through ASEA’s Preferred Customer Autoship Program, and you will earn a $25 bonus every time they purchase a case of ASEA on Autoship. If they purchase two cases of product, then you’ll receive $50, and so on. To receive this bonus you must be active (generating 100PV in a month). The volume for each case purchased by a Preferred Customer is 50CV and this volume counts towards personal volume requirements and is added to your lesser volume leg.
FAST START BONUS
You can earn an instant Fast Start Bonus every time you personally sponsor someone who purchases an ASEA Product Pack during the enrollment process. Even better, this one-time Fast
Start Bonus will be given to you and your qualified upline(s) who are active.
AAA BONUS
The AAA Bonus is by far the most powerful and immediately lucrative residual portion of the ASEA Compensation Plan. As you begin to build your team of Associates the AAA (ASEA Autoship Advantage) Program will help to return your initial investment in your ASEA business. You can also qualify to make up to $750 a month by creating and maintaining a AAA Bonus Structure with as little as 28 Associates on Autoship. To participate in the AAA Bonus Program make sure you and all of the qualifiers are on Autoship with a minimum of 100PV per order.
There are three levels to this bonus, shown below.
Team Commissions (TC) are the foundation of the ASEA compensation plan. Your organization ofAssociatesis known as the binary, and has two legs—your left leg and your right leg. All of the Associates placed under you will be in one of these legs. Associates under you in your bi- nary do not necessarily have to be personally sponsored by you. You, your sponsor, or anyone else above you in the binary can place Associates in your organization in either one of your legs. This is known as spillover. Your Group Volume (GV) is the sum total of the PV of all Associ- ates in all or a portion of your organization.
To start earning Team Commissions you need to:
- Be active (100PV) and qualified
- Have an active (100PV) personally sponsored
Associate on your left and right binary legs
Team Commissions are paid weekly by calculating and paying out 10% of the volume in your lesser volume leg. For example, if you had 5,000GV on your lesser leg and 7,000GV on your greater leg, you would receive a com- mission of $500 (10% of the 5,000GV lesser leg). Then 5,000 would be subtracted from both legs, leaving 0 on your lesser leg and 2,000 on the greater leg for the next week.
Any leftover volume on your greater leg will carry over to the next week, as long as you remain active with at least 100PV. Please see the glossary under Carry Over for the carry over limits.
If you do not remain active during a qualification period with at least 100PV, the volume on both the left and right legs will be reset to zero. There must be a minimum of 300CV on each leg in order to earn a Team Commis- sion. Any personal volume (PV) over 200 in a week will be added into the lesser team leg.
TEAM COMMISSION EARNING POTENTIAL
CHECK MATCH
With Check Match, you can earn a match on the Team Commissions paid to Associates you’ve personally sponsored, and the ones they’ve sponsored, and so on, up to seven generations! Check Match is determined on the rank you achieve, and your personal sponsorship tree, which is simply all of the Associates you’ve personally sponsored and the Associates that they have per- sonally sponsored, and so on. In each personal sponsorship tree leg, each personally sponsored Associate begins a new leg, and a generation ends with a qualified ranked Associate of Bronze Executive or higher.
The great news is that there are no limits to the width of your personal sponsorship tree, so you can continue to add more legs in order to add Associates to your generations! The maximum amount of Team Commissions that you can match per Associate in your personal enrollment tree within the qualified generations is $2,500.
The example in Figure 3 will help you understand how the Check Match works within the sponsorshiptree. In this example let’s consider that you (top of your spon- sorship tree) are active with a minimum of 200PV and are qualified as a Silver Executive. This means that you will earn the Check Match through two generations on each of your four personal sponsorship legs. Once a qualified Bronze Executive or above is found on any leg, it completes the first generation for that particular leg.
As you can see, 1, 2, 3, and 4 are your per- sonally sponsored Associates and are blue (first generation). In these legs there are additional Associates underneath them that are blue, since they also count as your first generation. In this example, A, B, C, and D, which are blue or first generation, are quali- fied as Bronze Executives or above and therefore they complete the first generation for each sponsorship leg. In this example, you will earn a Check Match on 13 Associ- ates (blue) for your first generation match.
As a Silver Executive you can earn two generations of Check Match, so you would also earn the match on the seven Associ- ates who are represented by the color green (your second generation). However, you will not earn a match on the Associate represented by the color orange, since E qualified as a Bronze Executive or higher and completes the second generation. In order to earn a match on your third generation you would need to qualify as a Gold Executive.
As you increase in rank, more generations will be added into your Check Match commission.
The breakdown of generations included in your CM is as follows: Bronze (1 generation), Silver (2 generations), Gold (3 generations), Platinum (4 generations), Diamond (5 generations), Double Diamond (6 generations), and Triple Diamond (7 generations). As you can see, increasing your rank only increases the number of generations you can benefit from with Check Match!
ASEA will calculate the CM as a floating percentage of company-wide commissionable volume, and will guarantee a payout of up to 50% of commissionable volume every commission period. Bronze Executives and above must be active with at least 200PV to earn CM, and weekly commis- sions from CM cannot exceed the volume from your lesser volume leg.
For leaders who have achieved over 10,000PGV (Personal Group Volume) weekly and have quali- fied to earn Check Match %, an adjustment to the CM % earned will be made based on the size of the largest sponsorship leg. This calculation looks at the total weekly PV in the largest leg 7 generations down, compared to the total PGV 7 generations down, and divides the volume of the largest leg by the total PGV for the week to get its payout %. For example, if your total PGV
is 12,000 and your largest leg PV is 8,000 your volume contribution % from that leg is 66%. This would mean that you would earn 80% of the CM % for 7 generations in that leg.

*PGV may not have more than 50% of the PGV from any one sponsorship tree leg. The 50% is determined based on the qualifying rank. For example for the rank of Platinum the weekly PGV requirement is 10,000. 50% of 10,000 is 5,000, so the maximum that each sponsorship leg can add towards the volume qualification is 5,000. This is the same for any rank with a PGV requirement.
