Creator Commissions

All creators commissions are set to 20% when you join Flagship. You can adjust this during onboarding, or at any time under Settings → scroll down to Creators → Auto-match with Flagship AI → change default auto-match commission. This will set the default commission for all creators.

Set Base Commission

To change individual creators commissions, select Creators → Your Creators → Edit next to the commission %.

What commission should I offer?

You can offer anywhere from 10-40% commission to creators. We suggest offering 15% commission for each creator because Flagship features brands with at least this commission amount in our recommendations to our Creators. However, we would consider looking at both discounts and commissions to creators as an incentive. It’s typically better to give a 10% creator’s commission and a 20% shopper’s discount than only a 20% creator’s commission because creators know sales incentivize their shoppers to buy.
