Traverus Travel offers a 3x9 matrix, explained by the company as follows:
When you become an active Agent that personally generates one "Agent Package Sale," of any type you are eligible to earn "Matrix Residual Bonus" commissions. If you personally generate one (1) sale you are eligible to earn commission on level two (2) through four (4) levels of the Matrix. At three (3) personal Sales you earn commission on level two (2) through five (5) of the Matrix, with four (4) personal sales you earn commission on levels two (2) through six (6) levels in the matrix. At five (5) personal sales you earn on levels two (2) through seven (7) levels in the matrix. At this point you are qualified as an Executive in our compensation program.
Starting with your seventh (7) personal sale you are eligible to participate in the "Paycation Business Builder Program," and also participate in the Regional Executive promotional programs.
Very simply, in a 3x9 forced matrix, a maximum of three sales fit on your front line, and all other sales made by you or those above you are forced down to your second level and beyond – called "spillover." When those below you make sales, they too can only have three on their front line, so all others "spillover" to the next level. In the event that an Agent in your matrix is Terminated or Cancelled your matrix will dynamically compress bringing people from directly below the affected position up higher in your pay line. In the event that an Agent is suspended for more than 60 days, then that Agent will also be purged from the system and the matrix will compress once again.
If you enroll as a Basic Agent, your monthly BV qualification is 60 points, however, that only qualifies you for the coded portion of the compensation plan and the 3x9 forced matrix. In the event that you want to participate in the third phase of our compensation plan, the binary, your BV must total 90 points.
Traverus Travel offers the following qualification levels:Executive
You must personally enroll five (5) Agents by selling them one of the Enrollment Packages. You must also upgrade to the monthly personal BV of 90. With 90 BV you will be qualified to participate in all 3 phases of the TraVerus compensation program. Once you meet the criteria you are able to collect compensation on level seven in the matrix and participate in all other Executive level benefits, to include the "Executive Residual Coded Bonus." Once you achieve the level of Executive there are additional success levels that can be achieved. The criteria to "move up" in the organizational structure are shown below.
Regional Executive
You must be an Executive with a minimum of seven (7) personal enrollments. You must also have a minimum of three Executives, or higher rank, in your organization (only two (2) Executives or higher rank count per leg). As a Regional Executive you earn compensation from level eight in your matrix along with all other Executive Bonuses. Your personal BV requirement per month is 90. With 90 BV you will be qualified to participate in all 3 phases of the TraVerus compensation program. Starting with your seventh (7th) personal enrollment, you qualify for an additional "Business Builder Bonus." This Business Builder Bonus is available for all Regional Executives and above.
National Executive
You must be a Regional Executive with a minimum of twelve (12) personal enrollments. You must also have a minimum of six (6) Regional Executives, or higher rank, in your organization (only four (4) Regional Executives or higher rank count per leg). As a National Executive you earn compensation from level eight and level nine in your matrix along with all other Executive Bonuses. Once you have achieved the level of National Executive you have the option at any time to advise the home office of your intent to establish one additional person on the first level in your matrix. At that point your matrix becomes a 4x9, substantially increasing your matrix earning capabilities with all other Executive Bonuses. Your personal BV requirement per month is 90. With 90 BV you will be qualified to participate in all 3 phases of the TraVerus compensation program.
