How the categories compare
Computed from all 94 verified records. Medians use only the programs that publish a figure — nothing is estimated to fill a gap. The rate column covers recurring programs only, because a one-time percentage measures something different.

- CRM & Sales has the highest share of recurring programs — 8 of 10. If you want commission that compounds rather than a bounty, start there.
- Accounting & Finance has the longest median attribution window at 105 days, which matters most where the buying cycle runs past a month.
- A high rate in a category with few recurring programs is usually a one-time payout in disguise. Adobe advertises 85%, but that is 85% of a single month — which is why the rate column here counts recurring programs only.
- A dash means no program in that category publishes the figure, or none pays recurring commission. We leave it blank rather than repeat a number from a third-party directory — see the methodology.
