Understanding Royal Marketer Commissions
SMS Naija Team · 25 August 2026
Royal Marketers earn from two distinct sources, and understanding both helps you see the full picture of your potential income.
First, a subscription-onboarding commission: when an institution registers using your referral code and becomes an active, paying subscriber, you earn a commission on that subscription. Second, an ongoing transaction-fee royalty: a portion of the platform's transaction fee revenue generated by institutions (and Virtual Courses) you referred continues to be credited to you over time — not just a one-off referral bonus.
Earnings first accrue as pending, then become available for payout after a short holding period — a standard safeguard, not a delay tactic. Exact rates are communicated at application and may be updated prospectively, never retroactively against commission you've already earned.
This structure means your earnings can compound over time, not just spike once per referral.
