Forced Matrix General Description

The Forced Matrix Plan is based around a compensation structure that has a set width and depth for which distributor are compensated. Although there are many variations to this compensation plan, the basic concept remains the same. 

The basic structure of this compensation plan is normally identified by a simple equation that distinguishes the width and depth of the plan (i.e. width x depth). For example a 3 x 5 plan suggests you can only sponsor a maximum of 3 frontline distributors and you have the potential to earn commissions up to 5 levels deep.

Forced matrix mode is based on the monthly fee...

First of all, you'll have to complete some setting steps. Have a look at the picture below:

This is the main forced matrix settings screen.
Size settings section defines the matrix size: width and depth.
Payment Settings page defines the payments terms: Period between payments, Payment pariod and Notification period. If we set it like on the picture above the system will work next way:
Members must pay once a month, every month.
After a payment was done the member will have `Paid` status during 30 days.
After 30 days period they will have `Due to pay` status during 7 days.
If the payment is not still done during 5 days member gets notification emails. And then the system removes him out of the system.
Compression Matrix defines the matrix compression rule after a member is removed.
Turn on Payment Mode if you want the system to start removing non-paid members.

This mode requires setting up a cronjob: cronjob.php file must be run once a day.

The next forced matrix settings page is Forced Matrix Levels. Let's suppose we set the next levels (pay attention that the first level is Free):

Cost displays the amount members have to pay periodically. For example, if a member pays $15.00 he'll get Gold status and during the next30 days will be getting commissions from 4 lower levels accordingly the Fee Table (see below).

Fee Table defines commissions members will get from lower levels:

Left column displays payee levels: Silver, Gold and Platinum. As we can see, Silver members will get commissions from two lower levels, Gold - from four and Platinum - from five (all because we have 3x5 matrix) lower levels. And you can make difference between Member and Sponsor (enroller) fee.

Here you can set the commissions from payment of any member level to any upline member level. You can also differ commissions formembers placed on different physical levels of matrix and for personal enrollers (Sponsor Fee).

How does it work?

After registration and account activation members get into their sponsor's matrix. Then by efforts of members and their upline they fill in theirdownline levels.

To stay in the system members must periodically buy some level (Silver, Gold or Platinum in our case).

The higher level he buys the higher commissions he/she will be getting from downline members' payments.
