Multi-Artist Commission Tracking Explained

Stop using spreadsheets to calculate artist commissions. InkFlow automates commission splits so everyone gets paid correctly, every time.

The Problem with Manual Commission Tracking

If you're using spreadsheets or a notebook to track artist commissions, you know the pain. Different rates for different artists. Tips that need splitting. Retail sales vs service commissions. It adds up fast, and mistakes are common.

InkFlow's POS system calculates commissions automatically based on the rates you set for each artist.

How It Works

Set Per-Artist Rates

Each artist can have a different commission rate. Set it once in their profile — InkFlow remembers it for every transaction.

Automatic Calculation

After each appointment, InkFlow calculates the artist's commission, deducts supplies, and adds tips. No manual entry required.

Payout Reports

Run payout reports for any date range. See exactly what each artist earned, what was deducted, and what needs to be paid out.
