How Is Commission Calculated?
These examples illustrate the calculation method only. Actual commission depends on the applicable agreement.
| Business Model | Example Transaction | Rate | Illustrative Commission |
|---|---|---|---|
| Product Sale | $1,000 product sale | 5% | $50 |
| Service Referral | $1,000 agreed commission basis | 15% | $150 |
| Service Referral | $1,000 agreed commission basis | 20% | $200 |
| Won Shipment Revenue Share | $1,000 agreed fee/margin | 15% | $150 |
The service referral examples assume the stated $1,000 is the agreed commission calculation base, not necessarily the full shipment value. GST, refunds, adjustments, deductions and other charges are handled according to the applicable agreement and law.

Commission FAQs
Answers to common questions about AUSExports commissions and fees.
What is the commission on marketplace product sales?
The published AUSExports Terms & Conditions state a 5% commission on each product sold through the marketplace. Please review the current terms for applicable details.
Is product commission the same as service referral commission?
No. Product marketplace commission and service-provider referral arrangements are separate models with different calculation bases.
How much can a service provider pay?
Current service options include a $999 monthly subscription, $99 per qualified lead, or a 15% revenue share of the agreed fee or margin on won shipments. A separate homepage statement refers to 15–20% referral commissions. Confirm the applicable written agreement before proceeding.
What counts as a qualified lead?
A qualified shipment enquiry may include pickup location, destination, shipment mode, cargo weight or volume, ready date, commodity details and relevant dangerous goods or temperature requirements. The exact qualification criteria should be agreed with AUSExports.
When is the commission payable?
Payment timing, settlement currency, invoice requirements and any deductions should be specified in the signed or accepted partnership agreement.

Yes. Contact the AUSExports team to discuss your business model, service category, target routes and potential partnership terms.
