Revenue splits

A split is a standing rule: “pay this partner X% of these sales”. When a customer pays one of your vendors, the vendor sends each partner their share in L$ right away, straight to their Second Life wallet. You keep the rest.

1. A customer pays your vendor (L$)
2. Each partner’s share
3. Plurion 5% (Free plan only)
4. You keep the rest

• Your vendor pays, from your L$. That’s why vendors need the DEBIT permission. Without it, a vendor doesn’t sell at all.
• Your partner needs no Plurion account or object. The L$ arrive in their wallet.
• A rule counts from the next sale.

#Create your first split

1. On the webOpen Splits, click New splitIn the sidebar, Admin → Splits (owner and admin only). The button is at the top right.
2. On the webChoose what it applies toUnder Apply to, pick Product, Vendor or Shop, then the product or vendor in the list. A Shop rule needs no pick.
3. On the webName your partner, press ResolveType their avatar name (First Last) and wait for a checked chip, which means Plurion found the avatar in Second Life. If it can’t, paste their avatar key (UUID) in the box it offers.
4. On the webSet the share, click Create ruleUse a whole percentage. For more partners, click Add another beneficiary. Leave the dates alone to start the rule now, with no end date.

You can also add partners while creating or editing a product, in its Revenue splits section. The fields and rules are the same.

#Product, Vendor or Shop

#How shares add up

• Every matching rule pays, and the shares add up. 20% + 10% + 5% = 35% goes out, and you keep 65%.
• On the net, after discounts. A discount campaign, a promo code or a loyalty offer also lowers what your partners get.
• Rounded down to the L$, in your favor. A share under L$1 isn’t sent, like the 5% Plurion fee on an item under L$20.
• Capped at 100%. Plurion won’t save a rule that pushes a sale past 100%. On the Free plan, Plurion’s 5% counts, so partners can share 95% at most.

#Which sales pay your partners

Splits apply where Plurion moves the money:

Reading the Splits page

• Four counters on top: Paid out · 30 days, Kept on split sales, Beneficiaries, Active rules.
• A red block, only when a share failed to pay (see below).
• Yellow notes, when more than half of a target’s net leaves in shares. That’s allowed, just unusual. Ignore hides a note in this browser, and it comes back if the share changes.
• By product, By vendor, By shop: one card per target, with its partners, their % and “You keep N%”. A rule’s ⋯ menu holds End now (the deal reached its end) and Cancel rule (you’re pulling it).
• By person: one card per partner, with what they were paid over 30 days and the rules that pay them. Not on Plurion · invite invites them to read their own statement, My Earnings.
• History: rules you ended or canceled. ↻ puts one back to work from the next sale. The bin only tidies your list. Past payouts stay on record either way.
• Split calculator: pick an item, type a price and an optional discount, and it shows exactly what leaves and what you keep, computed like a real sale. How splits stack, next to the page title, recaps the rules.

#The Plurion fee rule

On the Free plan, By shop shows a rule you didn’t create: Plurion fee, 5%, marked Locked. It’s how the Free plan is paid, with 5% of each sale’s net sent by your vendor like any other share. It also applies to credit bought at your terminal and to gacha pulls. You can’t edit it. Going Pro removes it (Plans & billing).

#When a share fails

Your vendor makes a real L$ transfer for each share, and Second Life can refuse it if the vendor lost DEBIT, your L$ balance was too low, or Second Life’s rate limit kicked in. Failed shares are listed in a red block at the top of Splits (who, how much, why, and a link to the sale), each with Retry.

Retry sends the share again through an online vendor owned by the avatar who received the payment. The L$ leave that avatar’s wallet. Then:

• “Sent to the vendor…” → it’s on its way. The badge turns Paid once the vendor confirms.
• “Not sent: …” → the vendor didn’t get it. Retry in a minute. If it says “Reset one in-world”, first restart one of your vendors’ scripts in-world (or take it and rez it again), and accept DEBIT if it asks. See vendor health.
• “No live vendor can send this share any more.” → the sale’s vendor is gone. Pay your partner by hand in Second Life, then click Mark as paid and confirm. The share turns Paid for both of you, for good.

#Marketplace sales: declared, not paid

Plurion only moves L$ for sales it controls, made at your in-world vendors. The Second Life Marketplace pays sellers itself, so Plurion transfers nothing for a Marketplace sale. You can still declare who shares a listing, to see your real net and give your co-creators an estimate.

Declaring Marketplace co-creators

1. On the webOpen the Marketplace settingsIn Migrate, open Connect Marketplace (once it’s connected), then Advanced settings.
2. On the webDeclare a distributionUnder Marketplace co-creators, pick the listing from your sales (or paste its exact title), tie it to a product if you like, then add each co-creator and their %.

Declared shares are estimates for your records. They’re computed on what really reached you (the price minus the Marketplace commission). They never show as “Paid” or count in your in-world split totals.
