Performance rewards

Your rank is set by last month's eligible net sales and applies to the following month's reward rate.

STARTER
30%

Last month under ¥30,000

Applies to next month's rate

PRO
35%

Last month ¥30,000 to under ¥70,000

Applies to next month's rate

ELITE
40%

Last month ¥70,000 or more

Applies to next month's rate

How it works

  • New promotion staff start at 30% (STARTER).
  • Rank upgrades take effect the following month.
  • Downgrades occur only after two consecutive months below the threshold.
  • Only qualifying first purchases are eligible.
  • Automatic renewals are generally not eligible.
  • Refunds, cancellations and fraudulent transactions are excluded.
  • Attribution: the first QR code scanned, valid for 7 days, never overwritten (first touch).

Example (one case)

Last month's eligible net sales: ¥40,000 → next month you are PRO (35%). If next month's eligible net sales are also ¥40,000, the reward is ¥14,000. Actual rewards follow finalized statements.

How results are attributed

First-touch attribution — the first QR code or URL scanned, valid for 7 days, never overwritten

  • Results attribute to the promotion staff whose dedicated QR code or URL was scanned first (first touch).
  • The attribution window is 7 days; scanning another QR within it does not overwrite the attribution.
  • Only purchases via a valid partner code are eligible.
  • Refunds, cancellations and fraud are excluded; self-purchases are detected and excluded.
  • If cookies or similar technologies are unavailable, attribution may not be possible.
