What is an MLM Plan Calculator?
An MLM Plan Calculator is a feature or tool integrated into MLM software that helps calculate commissions, bonuses, and income for users based on their plan structure, team size, sales volume, and levels.
It helps:
- Distributors estimate potential earnings
- Admins automate commission logic
- Ensure accurate, error-free payouts
π Unilevel Plan Formula
Total Income = Ξ£ (Number of Members on Level n Γ Commission per Level n)

Example:
- Level 1: 5 users Γ $10 = $50
- Level 2: 25 users Γ $5 = $125
- Level 3: 125 users Γ $2 = $250
β Total = $425
π Binary Plan Formula
Income = Pair Matching Bonus Γ No. of Pairs (from left and right legs)

Example:
- Left leg = 10 users, Right leg = 8 users
- Matching pairs = 8
- Bonus per pair = $20
β Income = 8 Γ $20 = $160
π Matrix Plan Formula
Income = (Fixed Commission Γ Filled Slots per Level)

Example:
- 3x3 Matrix
- Level 1: 3 people Γ $10 = $30
- Level 2: 9 people Γ $5 = $45
β Total = $75
π ROI/Investment Plan Formula (Daily/Monthly Income)
Income = (Investment Amount Γ ROI Rate Γ Duration)
Example:
- $1000 investment
- 1% daily ROI
β Daily = $10
β Monthly = $10 Γ 30 = $300
