# How do I set a rep's commission percentage?

> Set each team member's default share of the Lender Commission, and how it becomes their Rep Commission when a deal funds.

Each team member has a **Commission %**: their default share of the Lender Commission on deals they work. When a deal is marked funded, NextLevel MCA uses it to create their Rep Commission. Admins, or anyone with the **Manage Team** permission, set it in **Settings → Team → Members**.

## Set it

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Settings → Team → Members">
    Each member's current percentage shows on their row, for example **10% commission**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Edit the member">
    Open the member's **⋯** menu and click **Edit**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Change Commission %">
    Enter a number from 0 to 100 under **Commission %** on **User Info**. Decimals work too, for example 12.5.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click Save" />
</Steps>

New team members start at 10%. The first admin of a workspace starts at 0%. You set it when you [add a team member](/help/add-team-member), and can change it at any time.

## How it's used

When someone marks a deal funded, the **Finalize Funded Deal** window records the Lender Commission from the **Points (%)** you enter (funded amount × points), and a PSF if you enter one. Then Rep Commissions are created:

* The deal's originator and closer each get their own **Commission %** of the Lender Commission, and of the PSF if there is one. If one person is both originator and closer, they get one share, not two. Managers can also get an override on top, see [Manager overrides](/help/manager-overrides).
* **Admins can change the rows** in the funding window for that deal only. Everyone else sees them read-only.

**Example.** A deal funds for $50,000 at 10 points, so the Lender Commission is $5,000. The originator is on 10% and the closer on 15%. With no splits entered, the originator's Rep Commission is $500 and the closer's is $750.

No Rep Commission is created for a deal funded with no points and no PSF.

See [Rep Commissions](/help/rep-commissions) for tracking and paying them, and [Marking a deal funded](/help/mark-funded) for the funding window.

## What changing it affects

* A new percentage applies to deals funded **after** you change it.
* Rep Commissions already created keep the percentage they were created with.
* Someone on 0% gets no Rep Commission on a deal unless an admin adds them under **Rep Commissions** when funding.

## Common problems

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="A rep got no Rep Commission on a funded deal">
    Check that they were the deal's originator or closer when it was funded, that their **Commission %** isn't 0, and that points or a PSF were entered when funding. If an admin removed them from **Rep Commissions** when funding, they get nothing on that deal.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="The percentage was wrong when a deal funded">
    Changing **Commission %** now doesn't change Rep Commissions already created, and the Rep Commissions page only changes a commission's status, not its amount. Contact support to correct the amount. See [Getting help](/help/getting-help).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Our splits don't add up to 100%">
    They don't need to. Each person's percentage is their share of the Lender Commission, and whatever isn't split out stays with the brokerage.
