ASEA Compensation Plan
To start earning commissions (Retail, Preferred
Customer, Fast Start, Team Commissions, and
AAA Bonus) simply be active by generating a
minimum of 100PV (Personal Volume) every
month. If your goal is to earn additional commissions (Check Match), focus on generating
a minimum of 200PV each month. Before you
know it, you’ll be receiving checks because
the Retail, Preferred Customer, Fast Start,
Team Commissions and Check Match are paid
weekly, and the AAA Bonus is paid monthly
RETAIL SALES
Retail Sales are just one way to make a profit. Sell some ASEA and increase your earnings! Here’s
how it works. As an Associate, you can purchase ASEA products at the wholesale price, sell them
at the retail price, and then pocket the difference. Or you can send someone to your website
where they can purchase ASEA products at the retail price and we will pay you $30, the difference
between the retail ($150) and wholesale price ($120). The volume generated from retail sales is
100CV (Commissionable Volume) per case and counts towards personal volume requirements and
is added to your lesser volume leg.
PREFERRED CUSTOMER BONUS
When you sign up a Preferred Customer, you’ll both benefit! Your Preferred Customer will get a
discount on the product with wholesale pricing through ASEA’s Preferred Customer Autoship
Program, and you will earn a $25 bonus every time they purchase a case of ASEA on Autoship. If
they purchase two cases of product, then you’ll receive $50, and so on. To receive this bonus you
must be active (generating 100PV in a month). The volume for each case purchased by a Preferred
Customer is 50CV and this volume counts towards personal volume requirements and is added to
your lesser volume leg.
FAST START BONUS*
You can earn an instant Fast Start Bonus every time you personally sponsor someone who
purchases an ASEA Product Pack during the enrollment process. Even better, this one-time Fast
Start Bonus will be given to you and your qualified uplines who are active.

AAA BONUS
The AAA Bonus is by far the most powerful and immediately lucrative residual portion of the ASEA
Compensation Plan. As you begin to build your team of Associates the AAA (ASEA Autoship
Advantage) Program will help to return your initial investment in your ASEA business. You can also
qualify to make up to $750 a month by creating and maintaining a AAA Bonus Structure with as
little as 28 Associates on Autoship. To participate in the AAA Bonus Program make sure you and
all of the qualifiers are on Autoship with a minimum of 100PV per order.
There are three levels to this bonus, shown below.

TEAM COMMISSIONS
Team Commissions (TC) are the foundation of the ASEA
compensation plan. Your organization of Associates is
known as the binary, and has two legs—your left leg and
your right leg. All of the Associates placed under you will
be in one of these legs. Associates under you in your binary do not necessarily have to be personally sponsored
by you. You, your sponsor, or anyone else above you in
the binary can place Associates in your organization in
either one of your legs. This is known as spillover. Your
Group Volume (GV) is the sum total of the PV of all Associates in all or a portion of your organization.
To start earning Team Commissions you need to:
• Be active (100PV) and qualified
• Have an active (100PV) personally sponsored
Associate on your left and right binary legs
Team Commissions are paid weekly by calculating and
paying out 10% of the volume in your lesser volume leg.
For example, if you had 5,000GV on your lesser leg and
7,000GV on your greater leg, you would receive a commission of $500 (10% of the 5,000GV lesser leg). Then
5,000 would be subtracted from both legs, leaving 0 on
your lesser leg and 2,000 on the greater leg for the next
week.
Any leftover volume on your greater leg will carry over to
the next week, as long as you remain active with at least
100PV. Please see the glossary under Carry Over for the
carry over limits.
If you do not remain active during a qualification period
with at least 100PV, the volume on both the left and right
legs will be reset to zero. There must be a minimum of
300CV on each leg in order to earn a Team Commission. Any personal volume (PV) over 200 in a week will
be added into the lesser team leg.

CHECK MATCH
With Check Match, you can earn a match on the Team Commissions paid to Associates you’ve
personally sponsored, and the ones they’ve sponsored, and so on, up to seven generations!
Check Match is determined on the rank you achieve, and your personal sponsorship tree, which
is simply all of the Associates you’ve personally sponsored and the Associates that they have personally sponsored, and so on. In each personal sponsorship tree leg, each personally sponsored
Associate begins a new leg, and a generation ends with a qualified ranked Associate of Bronze
Executive or higher.
The great news is that there are no limits to the width of your personal sponsorship tree, so you
can continue to add more legs in order to add Associates to your generations! The maximum
amount of Team Commissions that you can match per Associate in your personal enrollment tree
within the qualified generations is $2,500.
The example in Figure 3 will help you
understand how the Check Match works
within the sponsorship tree. In this example
let’s consider that you (top of your sponsorship tree) are active with a minimum
of 200PV and are qualified as a Silver
Executive. This means that you will earn
the Check Match through two generations
on each of your four personal sponsorship
legs. Once a qualified Bronze Executive or
above is found on any leg, it completes the
first generation for that particular leg.
As you can see, 1, 2, 3, and 4 are your personally sponsored Associates and are blue
(first generation). In these legs there are
additional Associates underneath them that
are blue, since they also count as your first
generation. In this example, A, B, C, and D,
which are blue or first generation, are qualified as Bronze Executives or above and
therefore they complete the first generation
for each sponsorship leg. In this example,
you will earn a Check Match on 13 Associates (blue) for your first generation match.
As a Silver Executive you can earn two
generations of Check Match, so you would
also earn the match on the seven Associates who are represented by the color
green (your second generation). However,
you will not earn a match on the Associate
represented by the color orange, since E
qualified as a Bronze Executive or higher
and completes the second generation. In
order to earn a match on your third generation you would need to qualify as a Gold
Executive.
As you increase in rank, more generations will be added into your Check Match commission.
The breakdown of generations included in your CM is as follows: Bronze (1 generation), Silver
(2 generations), Gold (3 generations), Platinum (4 generations), Diamond (5 generations), Double
Diamond (6 generations), and Triple Diamond (7 generations). As you can see, increasing your rank
only increases the number of generations you can benefit from with Check Match!
ASEA will calculate the CM as a floating percentage of company-wide commissionable volume,
and will guarantee a payout of up to 50% of commissionable volume every commission period.
Bronze Executives and above must be active with at least 200PV to earn CM, and weekly commissions from CM cannot exceed the volume from your lesser volume leg.
For leaders who have achieved over 10,000PGV (Personal Group Volume) weekly and have qualified to earn Check Match %, an adjustment to the CM % earned will be made based on the size
of the largest sponsorship leg. This calculation looks at the total weekly PV in the largest leg 7
generations down, compared to the total PGV 7 generations down, and divides the volume of
the largest leg by the total PGV for the week to get its payout %. For example, if your total PGV
is 12,000 and your largest leg PV is 8,000 your volume contribution % from that leg is 66%. This
would mean that you would earn 80% of the CM % for 7 generations in that leg.
ASEA GLOSSARY OF TERMS
ACTIVE You remain an active Associate by generating a minimum of 100PV in each monthly period.
AUTOSHIP An automated program that ships products to an Associate or preferred customer on their
chosen date each month. This program is recommended so that no Associate will miss a qualification
period by missing an order.
BUSINESS CENTER Your position in the Team Commission pay structure.
CARRY OVER Carry over is volume that is not paid
out (normally on the larger leg of the Binary) when
Team Commissions are generated as long as the Associate is Active. There are two factors that affect the
carry over allowed. 1. The most that can be carried
over annually is limited to 2 million CV. 2. For those
Associates that have reached the maximum payout
in Team Commission and have volume above the
maximum being carried over on the lesser leg, they
can use the carry over on the lesser leg for Team
Commissions provided they are bringing new volume
into their lesser leg. The allowable payout on the
carried over volume on the lesser leg is 1 volume of
carried over volume for every 4 points of new volume.
COMMISSION PERIOD The period in which the
volume is calculated from product sales to produce
commissions and bonuses. The weekly commission
period runs from Saturday at 12:00:00 a.m. Eastern
Time to Friday at 11:59:59 p.m. Eastern Time.
COMMISSIONABLE VOLUME The volume amount
that commissions are paid on. CV is determined by
adding up all orders underneath you placed on that
leg for that period. Each order is assigned a commissionable amount that may be different than the
qualifying amount and price of the item.
GBU Globally Business Unit. 1 GBU represents 1 US
dollar.
GV Group Volume is the sum total of the PV of all
Associates in all or a portion of Team Commission
organization.
LESSER VOLUME LEG The leg in the binary structure with the lesser amount of volume.
LIFETIME RANK The highest rank achieved by an
Associate, used for recognition purposes.
MONTHLY COMMISSION PERIOD ASEA defines
Monthly Commission Period based on individual
calendar months.
PAID AS RANK The rank which an Associate qualifies for and is paid at for a given commission period.
PGV Personal Group Volume is the sum total of the
PV of all the Associates in your personal sponsorship
tree.
PREFERRED CUSTOMER (PC) Is a customer who
has signed up on Autoship. A PC is not involved with
the opportunity at ASEA, they are simply consumers
of the producT. A PC is not designed for redistribution or resale, but rather personal consumption.
PV Personal Volume is the volume from product
purchases attributed to your business center, which
qualify an Associate to receive commissions.
QUALIFIED You become qualified to earn Team
Commissions by personally sponsoring an Associate
who is active on your left leg and your right leg.
RETAIL CUSTOMER A Retail Customer is defined
as someone who purchases the product at retail
cost. Retail customers purchase product on an “ondemand” basis.
SPONSORSHIP TREE The sponsorship tree is the
Associate structure that determines Check Match
bonuses. All personally enrolled Associates are at
the first level in an Associate’s sponsorship tree, no
matter in which binary leg they are placed. Their
personally enrolled Associates are the second level in
the sponsorship tree, and so on.
