How Long 'Til You See That Commission Check?

Hey WR. Very curious how long it takes my fellow AEs to see their first commission check from a deal. Not talking uplift, clawback, delta, etc. Simply from close won to cash money.


-PleaseAdvise-

Time it takes from closing deal to initial commission check?

I feel like this is the most common, and a pretty reasonable expectation.

Do y'all get paid out on deals you close if you leave?

Nope. You have to be employed at the company at the time the commission is paid out in order to get it.

We pay on a 45-day lag. This ensures payment of due-at-signing and net-30 deals and eliminates the vast majority of clawback scenarios. Close a deal in November? You'll get paid on Jan 15th.

We're paid commission quarterly, so with the month-end paycheck following the end of the quarter

if I close it this month (with payment) I'll have the commission in my end of month pay the following month.

Always takes forever 4+ months on 99% of deals. I'm still waiting on commissions from July! 😒

You and me both! Just got word that commissions from Q2 are going to be paid by end of year (included in the last paystub of the year).

When the client pays their invoice. Usually three months on average (after deployment).
