Genealogy Trees
A genealogy tree is a means of tracking relationships between all the Independent Business Partners in
Kyäni. In the Kyäni Compensation Plan, there are two genealogy trees, the Sponsor Tree and the
Placement Tree.
When a new Business Partner joins Kyäni, they appear in both trees.
Sponsor Tree
The Sponsor Tree is similar to a family relationship tracker. Everyone you personally enroll is positioned
directly under you on your first level. When you personally enroll team members and they enroll a new
Independent Business Partner, the new Business Partners are then positioned under your team members
on your second level. This positioning is automatic and directly determined by who enrolled the new
Business Partner. The width of your Sponsor Tree is as wide as the number of people you personally
enroll.

Placement Tree
The Placement Tree is another relationship tracker. Unlike the Sponsor Tree, you have the freedom to
place your personally sponsored Business Partners anywhere you desire in your downline. There are
different reasons why leaders may place newly enrolled Business Partners in different positions of the
Placement Tree. These include A) synergy of building a team; B) geographical considerations; C)
personal relationship considerations; or D) building to the next rank. Proper placing of new Business
Partners in your Placement Tree is important and helps you build a wider, deeper, and more profitable
organization.
When you personally enroll a new team member
er, you may immediately place them in the Placement Tree
or you may place them in the Holding Tank where you have up to 72 hours to decide where to place
them. If you do not place them within the allotted time, the system will automatically place them in first
level of your Placement Tree. There is no limit to the width of the Placement Tree; you can build it as wide
as you like. To be eligible for all bonuses, you only need to have three legs.
Your Customers may be considered one leg for Kyäni Monthly PayGate Accumulator calculations or for
rank calculations.
In the illustration below, you will notice that George was placed below Mary. The same organization is
represented in both the Sponsor Tree and the Placement Tree.

Qualification Requirements
There are two levels of qualification. The first is reached with 1QV per month. At this level, you are
considered a Distributor. You are eligible for select Weekly Bonuses.
At 100QV per month you are considered a Qualified Distributor and are eligible for all bonus
compensation. Beginning at the rank of Jade 150QV is required. Qualification is required monthly. To
qualify, you can either have QV from personal customers or purchase adequate volumes of product to
generate the required amount for your rank, or a combination of both.
RANKS
Ranks are calculated based on QV from the Placement Tree. You may count 500QV volume from
personal purchases towards ranks of Pearl and below and 1000QV for ranks of Sapphire and above.
Ranks up to and including Diamond require two active (100QV) legs and Blue Diamond and above
require three active (100QV) legs.

Rank Determination Process
Use the following process to determine rank.
- Calculate total GQV (Group Qualifying Volume) and compare to chart for possible rank.
- Does the QV volume outside of the largest leg (including personal and customer volume) meet
the minimum requirements for that rank? (If no, restart with next lower rank.) - Does the QV volume outside of the largest two legs (including personal and customer) meet the
minimum requirements for that rank? If no, restart with next lower rank. If yes, you have reached
that rank.
Examples
Below are two examples to illustrate calculation of rank.
Example A: You have two legs. The largest leg has 30,000QV, Leg 2 has 20,000QV. Take the volumes
through the calculation process. - Total volume of all legs equals 50,000QV. Comparing this to the chart, you may qualify for
Emerald. - QV outside the largest leg equals 20,000. For the Emerald Rank the chart shows that 20,000QV
is needed. That requirement is met.
Example B: This organization has 4 legs. The largest leg has 120,000QV, Leg 2 has 17,000QV, Leg 3
has 3,000QV, and Leg 4 has 300QV.
Take the volumes through the calculation process. - The total volume of the organization is 140,300QV. This is in the category for Diamond.
- QV outside of the largest leg equals 20,300QV. This does not meet the minimum requirement for
Diamond. We then look at the next lowest rank (Emerald). - QV outside of the largest leg equals 20,300QV. For the Emerald Rank the chart shows 20,000QV
is needed. That requirement is met. You have reached the rank of Emerald.

BONUSES
Personal Customer Bonuses
Retail Profit Bonus
Every time you sell product to a registered customer, you make the difference between the wholesale
price and the selling price. The difference between your wholesale pricing and what your Retail Customer
paid is the Retail Profit Bonus. It will be paid to you with the weekly bonuses. This bonus is earned every
time one of your personal customers purchases a product. You must have a Paid-As Rank of Distributor
when the bonus is calculated in order to earn this bonus.
Example: Assume a customer places an order of $140 worth of products—an order which would cost an
Independent Business Partner only $120. The Business Partner would then earn the Retail Profit Bonus
of $140-$120 = $20
Prime Bonus
The first time a customer enrolls in a Prime membership the customer’s sponsoring Business Partner will
receive a bonus. There is no bonus for a customer renewing a Prime membership.
Prime Membership Prime Bonus
6 Month Membership $15*
12 Month Membership $20*
*Amounts vary according to the Customer’s shipping country.
Customer Builder Bonus
Every month your Customers have a combined QV of 750, 2,500, or 5,000 you will receive a bonus. You
may only earn one bonus level per month.

Independent Business Partner Bonuses
Team Bonus
Whenever someone in your downline enrolls a new team member, you may be eligible to receive the
Differential Team Bonus. The Differential Team Bonus is calculated using the Sponsor Tree. It is paid
based on the Starter Pack purchased by the new member, your rank, and the rank of the Business
Partners between you and the enrollment.
The Team Bonus uses SV (Special Volume) to determine payouts. Each starter pack has an SV value
associated with it. Depending on your rank you will receive a percentage of the SV as a bonus. The rank
you achieve in your first 31 days is called your Grace Rank. This rank will be part of the evaluation of
how much you will earn on the Team Bonus. After your 31 days are done the rank you have earned
(Grace Rank) will be compared with the current calendar month rank and the previous calendar month
rank. The highest of all three ranks will be the rank used in Team Bonus calculations. This Grace Rank
will be used during your first 31 days and the remainder of the calendar month after the 31 day period.
For example if you joined on 15 August your 31 day period would end 15 September and you could use
the Grace Rank from 15 August to September 30. You can always earn a higher rank through your
efforts but during this time you will never be paid lower than your Grace Rank. (This rank is only used for
Team Bonus Calculations). After this period is done your Team Bonus will only use the current month
rank and the previous month rank for payouts. The chart below illustrates the percentage you will receive
based on your rank. Distributor

A Qualified Distributor is eligible for 20% of the SV. There have been

A Jade is eligible for 25% of the SV. 20% has already been paid to the
Qualified Distributor. 25% – 20% = 5%
A Garnet is eligible for 20% of the SV. 20% has already been paid to the
Qualified Distributor and 5% to the Jade and exceeds the amount a Garnet
can earn. 0% is paid.
A Pearl is eligible for 40% of the SV. However, 20% has already been
paid to the Qualified Distributor and 5% to the Jade. 40% – 20%
