Which Category-based commission is used for multiple category product?

[S Charlton]

If I have assigned different commission rates to different WooCommerce categories, which commission rate will be used if a product has been assigned to multiple categories? Does it default to the highest commission rate or can categories be assigned a priority order for commission?
Thank you.

HI,

First assigned category consider for calculating commission.

Thank You

Please clarify.
1. If categories have been selected/ticked at the same time when adding a listing, which one is classed as “first”?
2. Do you mean the first on the Categories list (a-z)?
3. What about child categories set at different commission rates to the parent?
4. I would like my vendors to select their own commission rates for their products so we can offer different levels of promotion. If I create a Commission category with 3 sub-categories (5%|10%|15%) with the default and parent set to 5%, can this Commission category/Sub-categories take priority over the other categories?
5. Would you consider adding a “Highest/Lowest Commission Priority” toggle for when multiple categories are used?

It’s important for admin to be able to order the category Commission hierarchy/order for a product in multiple categories – especially if Affiliate commissions are also to be considered.

Please clarify how something like this can be achieved.

Thank you.

Hi,

Well, category commission is always confusing if you assign multiple categories to a product.

If you want to use category wise commission then it’s always recommend to use only one “main category” for that product!

Thank You

Hi, this has not answered any of my questions.
I need vendors to select multiple categories. All I need as admin is to be able to choose in “Settings->Commission Settings” between:
a. Use Highest Commission for Multi-Category
b. Use Lowest Commission for Multi-Category

This also makes it easy if admin has selected Vendor commission or admin commission. This should also help with Affiliate commission if used.
Can you make this possible?
Thank you.

We will add this in WCFM Marketplace next update.

Category wise commission – consider maximum commission from all associated categories for a product, can be change to min using filter “wcfmmp_is_allow_max_category_commission” by returning false
