Commission Automation
Run partner commissions end to end, all the way to the payout.
Nobody enjoys running partner commissions by hand: the tracking, the payouts, the invoices, the chasing. Kiflo runs it end to end, calculated from the revenue it already tracks, right up to a payout finance is ready to release.

The problem
The commission spreadsheet breaks exactly when your program starts working.
A spreadsheet is static. Your program isn't. New partners, new tiers, recurring revenue, and every change means updating the sheet by hand, one more chance to get a number wrong. It holds together until it doesn't.
Every manual step adds delay and pulls partnerships away from the work that actually grows the program: building relationships. Meanwhile the partners feel it: a commission that's wrong or late quietly tells your best ones to send their next deal somewhere else.
The outcome
From tracked revenue to a ready payout, without the spreadsheet.
Because Kiflo already knows which partner sourced or influenced each deal, the commission isn't a separate reconciliation exercise. The rule applies, the amount calculates, and Kiflo rolls it into a payout with the partner's invoice attached, everything up to the payment.
What you can do
Retire the commission spreadsheet. The math and the payouts.
The calculation half
Model it once. It calculates itself.
Define your commission model
Set the rules for each program and tier once, referral or reseller, so every partner sits on the right model.
Let commissions calculate themselves
Kiflo applies your model automatically as revenue comes in, a new deal, a renewal, so there's no month-end sheet to rebuild.
Ground it in revenue that landed
Connect your billing and CRM so commissions follow the revenue that actually landed, not forecasts.
The payout half
The part the spreadsheet never touched.
Create payouts automatically
Roll pending rewards into payouts on a monthly, quarterly, or threshold trigger, so nobody builds them by hand and small amounts don't fire off a payment.
Self-invoice on the partner's behalf
Generate the partner's invoice for them and attach it to the payout, so nobody chases paperwork to get paid.
Stay VAT-compliant for EU partners
When you pay partners in the EU, Kiflo validates VAT IDs and applies the right treatment automatically, standard VAT or cross-border reverse charge.
Let partners review before payment
Partners see and validate their payout in the portal, so questions get caught before any money moves.
Hand finance a ready-to-pay file
Export each payout in whatever format your finance stack needs, then mark it paid. Kiflo runs everything up to the payment; finance releases the money.
The platform
Commissions are only as good as the revenue behind them.
Commission automation is the last step of the motion. These are the Kiflo capabilities that create and track the revenue behind every commission, from managing partners to proving what they drove.

Common questions
Questions teams ask about partner commission software.
What is partner commission software?
Partner commission software calculates what each partner has earned by applying your commission rules to the deals and renewals they drive, then handles the payout process, invoicing, and taxes that follow, without spreadsheets.
Does Kiflo pay partners directly?
No, and that's deliberate: finance keeps control of the money. Kiflo does everything up to the payment. It calculates commissions, creates payouts, and generates the partner's invoice, then hands finance a ready-to-pay export so they release payment and mark it paid.
Can Kiflo generate partner invoices (self-invoicing)?
Yes. If a partner opts in, Kiflo generates their invoice on their behalf and attaches it to the payout, so partners don't have to create and upload one to get paid.
Does Kiflo handle EU VAT?
Yes. On the invoices it generates, Kiflo validates VAT IDs and applies the right treatment automatically: standard VAT within a country, or cross-border reverse charge between EU countries with the required legal mention.
Can payouts be created automatically?
Yes. Kiflo can create payouts on a monthly or quarterly schedule, or when a partner's pending rewards pass a threshold you set, so small amounts don't trigger a payment.
Are commissions tied to tracked revenue?
Yes. Commissions are calculated from the same sourced and influenced revenue Kiflo tracks, so the amount and the proof are one record.
Get every partner commission right, without the spreadsheet.
We will show you how Kiflo turns tracked partner revenue into accurate commissions, creates the payouts, and self-invoices your partners, so your team runs everything up to the payment and partners trust the number.
