Sales Rep Commission Program

POS Sales — Compensation Structure & Scenario Calculator

Fully Transitioned To City Hive POS

Randy is ops, onboarding, implementation, handoff, hardware, sales manager, etc.

Sales is responsible for making the sale, negotiating, and collecting pertinent customer information such as "case discounts."

✍️

Signing Fee at Live

The one-time signing fee is paid as soon as the merchant location goes live. Net new customers earn the full rate; existing customers earn a reduced rate.

$750 / location (Net New)
$250 / location (Existing)
📅

20% Live Payment at Go-Live

The live payment — equal to 20% of the effective rate — is paid the moment the merchant goes live, alongside the signing fee. No monthly residuals — this is paid once, in full.

✅

No Residuals

Your entire commission for a location resolves at go-live — the signing fee plus the 20% live payment, paid together. Nothing accrues or is owed after that.

📍

Per Location

Signing fees and live payments are calculated per merchant location. Multi-location merchants multiply your earning opportunity accordingly.

🐝

Full Suite Coverage

The program covers all City Hive solutions — POS, Marketplace, and Website. The effective rate reflects the full bundle the merchant is subscribed to.

💳

Monthly SaaS Fee

Net new customers pay a recurring monthly platform fee, counted toward CAC recovery.

$99 / month (Net New)

Merchant's monthly card processing volume, per location
Per location, per month — drives DTC Online Revenue
Effective rate = flat rate × volume. The spread between the flat rate and City Hive's processing cost is City Hive's margin.
Each selected marketplace (send data + receive orders) pays CS a one-time $50, per location
Order counts only apply to active (highlighted) marketplaces — DoorDash is flat-fee only
1 register included in the $99/mo base SaaS fee. Each additional register is $50/mo (Net New only).
Model a monthly signing ramp
"Locations by Customer Type" above becomes the Month-1 starting cohort. The rep then signs additional locations each month on top of that.
Each cohort earns its signing fee and its 20% live payment together, the month it signs — the ramp determines how many cohorts have signed by any given month
Note: ramp mode uses a flat processing rate and is independent of Randy's/CS's figures above, which still reflect the static location count.
