    I am designing a system, when lower tier affiliates generate say $100 of total sales volume, in order for me to qualify for my commission, I need to make minimum of $10 purchase.

    This is to encourage more sales among the tiers.

    So if an affiliate see it has $100 downline sales volume , he wd want to make $10 purchase to qualify for say 20% commission, else the commission wd be gone.

    Using level rate doesnt seem to work in this case.

    Is there other Custom Method can be used to solve my pbm ?

      There is no custom method already coded that would handle what you describe. You would really need to develop it specifically for this case.

    What I need is , in a multi-tier setup A>B>C>D>E , only those affiliates who has make min of say $10 purchase per month , can collect the commission allocated (as defined in the tier) . This condition shd apply for affiliate on every tiers.

    eg: monthly purchases:
    A purchase $8
    B purchase $15
    C purchase $0
    D purchase $20

    then only B and D shd get the commission.

    Can the Custom method by Sales allow me to do this ?

      It can be done if you implement the commission rates based on the monthly sales and use relative rates for the tiers.

      But note that what you describe is not what tiers are used for, also this sounds rather like a discount program than an affiliate program. Taking into account this other topic, it seems that you try to grant a discount to those who make purchases?

    Wd the scripts calculate the commissions for affiliate on all tiers ?

      If the affiliate has someone in the upline, then they would be credited accordingly. They should get commissions relative to the commission granted to the affiliate (relative rates, under Affiliates > Tiers).

    Hi,
    you can use the custom method By Sales as reference and custimize it using the Affiliates API.
    cheers
