Stack bonuses and SPIFs — no side spreadsheets.
Layer incentives on top of the core plan — a bonus calculates in the run, a SPIF prize is pushed to payroll once that run is locked.
Base commission alone doesn’t steer behavior.
You want to push a product or close a gap this month, but reworking the whole plan is slow and risky — and spreadsheet contests are unmanaged and untrusted.
From idea to incentive in one plan.
Layer it on
Add a bonus plan or a time-boxed SPIFF on top of the existing commission plan — the base plan stays as it is.
Set the rule and the window
Choose the metric it measures and the window it runs in — a sales count, an amount, margin or gross profit, with a start and an end date.
The bonus runs; the SPIF is pushed
A bonus calculates inside the commission run, automatically from the plan, right alongside base commission. A SPIF prize is not: an admin pushes it to payroll after a run covering the SPIF end date is locked.
Incentives that land on the run, not in a spreadsheet.
A SPIFF or bonus is not a side spreadsheet. Both live on the plan and both land on statements as their own payout line — a bonus computed in the cycle itself, a SPIF prize pushed to payroll once the covering run is locked — so reps trust the number and payroll keeps the categories straight.
- Bonus plans layered on any commission plan
- Time-boxed SPIFFs with a defined start and end
- Bonuses calculated inside the run; SPIF prizes pushed onto the locked run — neither tracked on the side
- Visible to reps on their statements as a distinct payout category
The loop these incentives attach to.
