Rebate & Incentive Mechanics

What Is a Qualifying Transaction?

A qualifying transaction is a sale or purchase that meets all of a program's conditions - eligible product, eligible customer, valid period, correct partner tier and any registration or documentation required - and therefore counts toward earning a rebate. Transactions that miss any condition are excluded from the rebate calculation, even if they otherwise look identical.

A missing deal registration, the wrong customer type or an out-of-period date can disqualify a sale the partner assumed counted. Confirming each transaction qualifies is what makes a rebate forecast trustworthy.

An ineligible product or customer, an out-of-period date, the wrong partner tier, or missing registration or documentation the program requires.
