Each new comer join in as a member where they purchase a certain amount of product and nothing else, they gained. However, their ranking grows up along the way when they meet a certain criterion either sales or numbers of recruitment, they’re climbing the corporate ladders that is set by the MLM company.

Based on the examples, each member joining in, they received the products without any other reward benefits. When they move along say for example to Executive Ranking, they’ll earn a 5% from their downline member, and a 5% discount when they make a purchase.
As they move further and achieve the director ranking, let’s look at the commission structure based on the examples above
Your Ranking Director
Your downline ranking when they make a purchase Your earning percentage or self-purchase rebate
Leader 5%
Agent 10%
Executive 15%
Member 20%
Self-Purchase rebate 50%
