How Generation plan works ?

Generation plan is basically n*n matrix plan, which allows unlimited width as well as depth, This plan permits distributors to sponsor N numbers of direct sponsors in their front line as well as they can expand their downlines up to N numbers of level, but unlike Uni-level plan, here they will get commissions for unlimited levels. In this plan, distributors can gain commission by motivating their downlines to purchase goods or helping them sell more goods to consumers.

In Generation plan, downlines of any distributor will be divided into levels called generation. For an example, according to the table shown below, you have achieved rank of diamond by fulfilling the criteria set by company. Now, Platinum Rank holder distributors in your downline will be marked your First Generation, and Gold rank holder distributors in your downline will be considered as your second Generation and so on. The base of this segregation will vary form company to company. The most common segregation will be based on Level of ranks explained in example. The commission distributors can earn will increase as the level of generation increase. As you can see in table, the commission you will get from your first generation will be 7% of their purchase, form your 2nd generation will be 12% and so on.

Sales Volume Levels Ranks based on levels Generations Gap bonus
1-299 PV 3% Silver 3rd Generation 17% (20-3) of their purchase
300-799 PV 8% Gold 2nd Generation 12% (20-8) of their purchase
800-1399 PV 13% Platinum 1st Generation 7% (20-13) of their purchase
1400+ PV 20% Diamond You You
