How you get paid - a guide for Israeli affiliates
You've accrued commissions - now how does that become money in the bank? Four things to understand, in plain language.
1. When a commission becomes "payable"
A commission passes two gates before it's paid:
- The conversion was approved - the sale was reported and recorded. You see this in the dashboard immediately.
- The money is available - depends on the offer type:
- The business's own offer - available immediately upon conversion approval.
- A vendor's offer (an external seller in the network) - available only after the vendor has transferred its share to the network. This is the "paid-when-paid" principle: nobody in the chain pays out of pocket for money that hasn't arrived yet. It's usually a matter of days to weeks, according to the network's settlement arrangement.
2. Who pays you - and this matters
The business you promoted pays you directly - not affilink. The system calculates and produces an accurate report of your entitlement, and the business transfers according to it (usually bank transfer). So it's important that your contact and business details in your profile are complete and up to date.
3. Invoicing - what to arrange
Commission income is business income - to receive payment from a business in Israel you'll need to issue it an invoice. The two common options:
| VAT-exempt dealer | VAT-registered dealer | |
|---|---|---|
| Who it suits | Beginners, small annual volume (up to the exemption ceiling, updated annually) | Volume above the ceiling, or anyone who wants to offset VAT on expenses |
| What you issue | A receipt / transaction invoice, without VAT | A tax invoice + VAT (18% as of today) |
What to include in the invoice to the business:
- The period the payment covers (e.g. "affiliate marketing commissions, June 2026")
- The amount according to the entitlement report from the system
- Your dealer number (fill it in your profile in the system too - the dealer/company number field)
4. Refunds = deduction
A customer who bought through you and got a refund - the commission on that purchase is reversed. If it was already paid to you, it will be deducted from your next payout. Everything appears in the report with full transparency, including which purchase was deducted and why.
Recurring questions
- "Is there a minimum payout amount?" - it depends on the business you're working with; many set a threshold (e.g. 200 ILS) to avoid transferring tiny amounts every month. The accrual doesn't disappear - it waits for the threshold.
- "When do they pay?" - according to the business's payment cycle, usually monthly. Your report shows what entered each cycle.
- "I also promoted another business's offers?" - each business pays separately for its own offers. An invoice to each.
