Commission software pricing compared (2026)
Commission software is priced in several different ways, and the headline per-user price rarely tells the whole story. This page explains the common pricing models, shows the prices vendors publish on their own websites, and works through what those published prices add up to for teams of different sizes. Perslace publishes this page, and Perslace is one of the vendors listed. We have only used each vendor's own pricing page, with a link and the date we checked it.

The four pricing models you'll see
1. Per user, per month. You pay a fixed amount for each person who uses the software. Check who counts as a user. Some vendors count every payee as well as admins and managers.
2. Platform fee plus per user. A fixed monthly fee for the account, usually covering a set number of users, plus a per-user price for anyone beyond that. For small teams, the platform fee can be most of the bill.
3. Connector or add-on fees. Some vendors charge separately for each connection to another system, or sell commission software only as an add-on to another product you must already have.
4. Custom quote plus setup fee. Many vendors don't publish prices. You get a quote based on team size and requirements, often with a one-time setup or implementation fee.
None of these models is wrong. What matters is the total for your team over the contract term, including the people you'll add next year.

What the published prices add up to
These monthly totals use only the list prices above, with annual billing where a vendor offers it. They exclude tax, discounts, add-ons and services. Plans differ in features, so this compares cost, not value.
| Team size (users) | Perslace | QuotaPath Growth | QuotaPath Premium | Salesforce Spiff | Sales Cookie Business |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 | $50 (Growth) | $525 | $800 | $375 + connectors | $200 |
| 20 | $300 (Pro) | $1,050 | $1,550 | $1,500 + connectors | $800 |
| 50 | $750 (Pro) | $2,100 | $3,050 | $3,750 + connectors | $2,000 |
How we worked them out: QuotaPath = platform fee + (users − 5) × per-user price. Spiff = users × $75, plus $250 a month for each connector to a system other than Salesforce, plus the cost of a qualifying Salesforce edition if you don't already have one. Perslace Growth is for teams of 1–5 users, so the 20- and 50-user rows use Pro.
Questions to ask any vendor
- Who counts as a billable user: admins, managers, every payee?
- Is there a platform fee, minimum user count or minimum contract term?
- What does implementation cost, and is it one-time or recurring?
- Are connections to your CRM, payroll and finance systems included, or charged per connector?
- Is support included, or sold as a percentage of the subscription?
- What happens to the price when you add users mid-contract or move to the next plan?
- Can you trial the software, or test it with a sample of your own data?
