# Commissions

### How do commissions work?

We've partnered with thousands of brands who pay commissions on AI-driven sales.

After your app or agent recommends a product, we track if the shopper buys it (within a retailer-set timeframe). We pay you for those purchases.

For the latest rates, see [Brands](https://trychannel3.com/dashboard/brands) and [Websites](https://trychannel3.com/dashboard/websites) in the dashboard. Rates also appear on offers in search responses (`max_commission_rate`).

### Why do rates show "maximum"?

Commissions can be adjusted or canceled by retailers for reasons such as returns, order cancellations, suspected fraud, attribution to another channel, or network quality concerns.

### When and how are commissions paid out?

Earnings appear on the [Channel3 dashboard](https://trychannel3.com/dashboard) once attributed sales clear the retailer's return window. Earnings are paid out securely via Stripe.

You can also pull clicks and transactions via the [Reporting API](/guides/reporting).
