# Category based comission %

 * I have two affiliate groups
 * Group A: Influencers
 * Group B: Partner businesses
 * For the affiliates in group B, I want to pay them a specific % only for a few
   products, and 0% on anything else (no other commissions at all)
 * For group B, I want to to pay them one rate for all categories except for a specific
   product category, which would have a different rate.
 * For now, when I open the SliceWP tab inside the products it seems I can override
   it’s commission rate but I can’t seem to set a variable rate based on the affiliate
   group.
 * Am I missing something?

 * Hey [@zendev](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zendev/),
 * Thank you for reaching out! You are not missing anything. Commission rates cannot
   be set per product per affiliate group.
 * Affiliate group rates overwrite the rates from the general settings. If you have
   15% for Group A and 20% for Group B, affiliates that are part of Group A will
   receive a 15% commission and affiliates from Group B will receive a 20% commission.
 * Commission rates per product will overwrite the rate for that particular product.
   Let’s say that you have Product 1 that has a custom rate of 30%.
 * If an affiliate from Group A refers a purchase that has Product 1, Product 2 
   and Product 3 in cart, the plugin will calculated 30% of Product 1, 15% of Product
   2 and 15% of Product 3 and sum these together to have the final commission.
 * Thank you and best wishes,
 * Mihai

 * Ok, I think I got it, thanks for the reply. It seems like we will need to manually
   adjust the commissions when they arrive for now.
 * Is it possible to make a feature request for something like this?
 * I’d like to be able to set up a “rate sheet” based on Affiliate Group and then
   by Product Category.
 * Something like:
 * Slice WP -> Edit Affiliate Group -> Affiliate Group A:
 * –> Mobile Phone Category: 5%
   –> Charging Accessories Category: 15%–> Phone Cases
   Category: Default%
 * Slice WP -> Edit Affiliate Group -> Affiliate Group B:
 * –> Mobile Phone Category: 0%
   –> Charging Accessories Category: 0%–> Phone Cases
   Category: 20%
 * This would let our different affiliate groups be treated entirely differently.
 * The business case for us is that we invite general affiliates, but with our partners
   we negotiate individual rates with them for each product.
 * Thanks for considering,
   Zendev
