Motivate Top Billers with Transparent,
Dispute-Free Commission Payouts.
Stop calculating recruiter commissions on messy Excel spreadsheets. Ascent automates tiered commission slabs, candidate deal splits, manager signoff gates, and payroll-ready monthly payout reports.
Act 1: The Status Quo
The Commission Calculation Nightmare
Why traditional staffing agency commission tracking causes recruiter churn and friction
The Traditional Manual Nightmare
Spreadsheets, lost resumes & painful delays
- ✕Agency owners waste 3 days every month manually reconciling candidate placement fees against recruiter claim sheets.
- ✕Split-placement disputes (sourcer vs account manager) cause team resentment and demotivate top billing recruiters.
- ✕Recruiters have zero real-time visibility into their earned incentives until the final payroll slip is printed.
- ✕Commissions are accidentally paid out before client payment is received or during 90-day candidate probation periods.
The Ascent Operating System
Automated, cryptographic & high-velocity
- Automated Multi-Tier Slabs: Configure custom slabs (e.g. 5% base, 10% senior, 15% rainmaker accelerator) triggered automatically upon placement milestones.
- Split Deal Transparency: Split commissions cleanly across Sourcer (30%), Account Manager (40%), and Team Lead (30%) with cryptographic audit logs.
- Probation-Gated Releases: Automatically locks commissions until client invoices are cleared and candidate 90-day guarantee period passes.
- Live Recruiter Earnings Wallet: Every recruiter tracks their month-to-date billings and live payout forecast right from their dashboard.
Act 2: The Breakthrough Workflow
How the Ascent Commission Engine Works
Offer & Fee Lock
Candidate joins client. Placement commercial fee (e.g., 8.33% or 12.5% CTC) is locked with statutory invoice generation.
Slab & Split Attribution
System automatically detects recruiter contribution and applies their tiered commission slab without manual formulas.
Client Payment Gate
Incentive status shifts from 'Pending Client Clearance' to 'Approved for Release' the instant the invoice is marked paid.
1-Click Payroll Sync
Export clean, audited monthly commission reports for direct bank disbursement or sync to your accounting software.

"Our recruiters used to argue every single month about who sourced which CV and why their payout was delayed. With Ascent's Commission Engine, every recruiter checks their live earnings daily. Dispute tickets dropped to absolute zero."
