The MLM Generation plan is based on profit sharing. Also called Gap Commission Plan, it works purely based on product selling and is tailor-made for companies that manufacture and sell consumable items. Every affiliate prompts their downline to generate more sales of products and they will be paid bonuses and incentives in return. As the referral system keeps improving and increasing, the member network will also increase. When a distributor sells a product, the volume is to be distributed towards up-lines, hence the name, Generation Plan.

How does the Generation MLM Plan work?

  • Generations are groups of subsequent members, each with a specific number of levels.
  • It varies from company to company, but usually has four or five levels.
  • Assume your downline members up to level 5 are considered first generation.
  • Second generation includes levels 6-10, third generation includes levels 11-15, etc.
  • The commission you receive on items sold by your first generation will now be the highest, say 10%.
  • And starting from the second generation, you will get a lower commission rate, say 7%.
  • Starting from the third generation, you will receive even lower commissions, say 5%, etc.
  • The company sets the number of downline levels in each generation, as well as the commission rates.
