ach fiscal year, a fund is accumulated based on 0.25% of all qualified BV downline from all Emerald, Diamond and Diamond Plus qualifiers. This fund is then distributed in December to all qualifiers.
Amway identifies all internationally sponsored qualified Annual Volume (except for Diamond Plus), and any personally sponsored IBO downline from the internationally sponsored IBO, stopping at any foster sponsored IBO.
 





The three main Annual Commissions are:

1. Emerald Commission

2. Diamond Commission

3. Diamond Plus Commission




In this issue we will be exploring the Diamond Plus Commission.

Purpose of the Diamond Plus Commission:

The Diamond Plus Commission is designed to be an incentive and a reward for ongoing, long-term business growth, which is demonstrated by sponsoring 21% Group Volume legs, and by the amount of qualified Annual Volume they generate.

Criteria for Diamond Plus Commission:

The Diamond Plus Commission is paid annually to Platinums who:

  Personally or foster sponsor seven or more 21% legs, each of which are at the 21% level for at least 6 months of a fiscal year.
  Unlike Emerald and Diamond, internationally sponsored legs are not included in the calculation and payment of the Diamond Plus Commission.
  Each leg is not required to contain a qualified Platinum.







 
 
 
How does Amway determine what portion of the fund is to be distributed to each qualifier?

The following schedule is used to calculate the commission amount.

DIAMOND PLUS COMMISSION SCHEDULE
  No of 21% Groups who qualified for at least 6 months this fiscal year Units Per Group
  7 to 11 100 units/leg x qualified months
  12 to 14 200 units/leg x qualified months
  15 to 17 300 units/leg x qualified months
  18 or 19 400 units/leg x qualified months
  20 or more 500 units/leg x qualified months
     

1.   Determine the number of qualified groups.
2.   Determine the units per group according to the schedule above.
3.   Determine the number of months that each group qualified at the 21% level.
4.   Multiply the unit value by the number of months that they qualified.
5.   Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each of the 21% legs.
6.   The above process is applied to each of the Diamond Plus Commission recipients.
7.   Once the total number of units from all Diamond Commission recipients has been determined, the total fund is then divided by the total number of units to obtain the value per point.
8.   Lastly, calculate the Diamond Plus Commission by multiplying each recipient's total units by the value per point or unit.


It is important to note that at the end of the fiscal year, Ada calculates all Annual Diamond Commissions for the entire world and notifies each of the Affiliates of the amount to pay each Diamond Plus Commission Recipient in their country.

This commission is the last of the Annual Commissions.
