How to earn income by sharing Shaklee with others, whether you're just getting started or are an established Ambassador.
How to Share and Earn
Shaklee has a path that has your back, with a track record of paying out more than $9 billion in commissions over the last 65+ years.*
And this is how you get started.
You can earn
- 30% on all the purchases your new customer makes in the first 30 days.
- On top of these commissions, earn $75 for every $500 purchased by three or more new customers each month.
- 10–40% on all purchases of returning customers.
For more information regarding the Shaklee Compensation Plan, please refer to the Shaklee Compensation Plan Chart and Booklet on this page.
Star Club Bonuses Paid Weekly
Earn Star Club bonuses and be paid via direct deposit each week.
How it works:
- Earn a $75 Star Club Bonus each time you have $500 in product sales from new people in a calendar month with at least (3) new enrollments.
- Do it again in the same calendar month, and you'll earn another $75.
- For example, if you have $1,000 in product sales from new people in a month with at least (6) new enrollments, you will earn a total of $150 in Star Club Bonuses. We'll reward you each time. You can earn up to 15 Star Club Bonuses each month!
What are new enrollments?
- A new enrollment is a Retail Customer, Member, or Ambassador who places their first product order of any size.
- You must be the Original Sponsor (at the time of purchase) of the new Member or Ambassador on their first purchase.
- The Retail Customer's order must be first level to you.
- The count of new Retail Customers, Members, or Ambassadors starts over with each calendar month, so you must sponsor at least three new Retail Customers, Members, or Ambassadors in the month, with a total of $500 of product sales to earn a Star Club Bonus.
What counts as product sales from new people?
- Product sales from new people includes the first purchase a new Retail Customer, Member, or Ambassador places at their purchase price (excluding taxes, shipping, non-PV items, and join kits) in the month they are sponsored.
- The first product order placed counts. Any subsequent orders placed do not count toward product sales from new people for Star Club Bonuses.
- You must have a minimum of $500 in sales from new people, plus a minimum of (3) new enrollments in a calendar month to earn a Star Club Bonus.
Who is eligible to earn Star Club Bonuses?
- Star Club Bonuses can be earned by a new or existing Ambassador, Associate, or Business Leader. You must be the Original Sponsor (at the time of purchase) of the new Member or Ambassador on their first purchase. Retail Customer first purchases must be first level to the Ambassador, Associate or Business Leader.
- You can earn up to 15 Star Club Bonuses each month!
- You do not have to be bonus eligible (with a 100 PV personal order) to earn a Star Club Bonus.
- In the event the Original Sponsor is a Member or is no longer active, the new join order will count for the next eligible Original Sponsor.
Star Club Bonus Payments
- Star Club Bonuses will be paid weekly (processed on Wednesday, deposited on Thursday), accompanied by a new Report in the Back Office that details bonuses included in each weekly payment.
- Shaklee generally pays bonuses monthly; however, Star Club Bonuses are paid weekly, when you are registered for direct deposit of your bonuses. Qualifiers without Direct Deposit will be paid in their monthly Bonus/Commission check.
Terms and Conditions
Anyone creating and/or placing product orders through fake Ambassador/Business Leader accounts, or using the credit card of another person without their permission, or otherwise attempting to manipulate or game this incentive will be subject to all remedies for breach of contract set forth in the P&R, up to and including termination.

Shaklee makes no promises or guarantees regarding additional income and other earnings opportunities, and the success or failure of each Shaklee Ambassador, like with any other business opportunity, depends on your own skills and personal effort. The actual financial results of all Shaklee Ambassadors for the preceding year are contained in the Shaklee Average Earnings Chart which can be found linked at the top of the page, which does not include Ambassador costs.
Shaklee Ambassadors do not earn compensation for recruiting or sponsoring other Shaklee Ambassadors. For full details about the Shaklee Compensation Plan, speak to your Shaklee Ambassador or visit Shaklee.com.
Rank Up Bonus
Earn up to $20,000 as you rise through the ranks this year.
2024 Rank Up Bonuses
Achieve the Paid As Rank above your 2024 Rank Up Base Rank and hold for a total of four consecutive months to earn these cash bonuses and rewards—up to a maximum of $20,000 in 2024!
Click here to see 2024 Rank Up Bonus Chart.
What Is Your Base Rank?
Your 2024 Rank Up Base Rank is:
- The highest Paid As Rank that was held for any three months or more in the past 5 years (not necessarily consecutive). OR
- It is the base rank of Ambassador.
Example 1: Patrick became a new Ambassador in January 2024. His 2024 Rank Up Base Rank is Ambassador. If he promotes to at least the Paid As Rank of Director (and meets all the other Rank Up qualification requirements) by December 31, 2024 and holds it for a total of four consecutive months, he will be eligible to start earning 2024 Rank Up Bonuses.
Example 2: Elle became a Director for the first time in November 2023. She held the Paid As Rank of Director in November and December 2023. Since she held the Paid As Rank of Director for less than three months, her 2024 Rank Up Base Rank is Ambassador.
Example 3: The highest Paid As Rank Max held was Executive Coordinator in January 2022, February 2022, and March 2023. He was a Senior Coordinator every other month in the past 5 years. Since he held the Paid As Rank of Executive Coordinator for three months, his 2024 Rank Up Base Rank is Executive Coordinator. He must promote to at least the Paid As Rank of Senior Executive Coordinator (and meet all the other Rank Up qualification requirements) by December 31, 2024 and hold it for a total of four consecutive months to earn any 2024 Rank Up Bonuses.
What does "you can earn 3 Rank Up Bonuses at once" mean?
You can be in qualification for 3 Rank Up bonuses at a time. If you advance in Rank more than three Paid As Ranks at a time, you will need to complete the first three Rank Up Bonus qualifications before you can start the qualification for the higher Rank Up Bonuses.
For new Ambassadors or those with the 2024 Rank Up Base Rank of Ambassador, the Director Rank Up reward does not count as one of the 3 Rank Up Cash Bonuses you can earn at a time.
Example 1: A new Ambassador jumps to the Paid As Rank of Senior Coordinator and earns the Director, Senior Director, Coordinator and Senior Coordinator rewards after four consecutive months. They keep going earning more bonuses in 2024 as they advance in rank, meet all the qualification requirements, and maintain for 4 consecutive months.
Example 2: Bruce has the 2024 Base Rank of Senior Director. He has huge growth in his business and in March 2024 he achieves the Paid As Rank of Key Coordinator and maintains it for the remainder of 2024 (including all other Rank Up Bonus requirements). Bruce earns the Coordinator, Senior Coordinator and Executive Coordinator Rank Up Bonuses, a total of $8,500, after June PV month. In July he starts the qualification for Senior Executive Coordinator and Key Coordinator. He completes these qualifications in October and earns another $11,500. He earns the maximum 2024 Rank Up total possible of $20,000.
When Are Rank Up Bonuses Paid?
All earned awards will be paid the month after the completion of all four consecutive months of qualification. Rank Up Bonuses will be paid separately from the monthly commission checks, around the 25th of the month (for qualifiers set up for EFT/Direct Deposit).
Example: A Rank Up Bonus award earned in April 2024 (the Paid As Rank was held January, February, March, and April) will be paid via Direct Deposit around May 25, 2024 if the qualifier is set up for EFT/Direct Deposit or with the May 2024 PV commission check around June 15, 2024 if they are not set up on EFT/Direct Deposit.
Business Leaders earning 2024 Rank Up Bonuses must all have separate bank accounts. They cannot share a bank account with another Business Leader or Ambassador.
Rank Up Director Reward
The Rank Up Director reward includes the 2024 Shaklee Leadership Summit fee for up to two people (both must be listed on the Shaklee Account) and a one-night hotel reimbursement. Rank Up Director qualifiers will receive additional information via email from conventions@shaklee.com.
Already registered? If the qualifier has already registered for the Shaklee Global Conference, they will be reimbursed for their conference registration expense.
How is the one-night hotel room paid for? To be eligible for the one-night hotel room reimbursement the Rank Up Director qualifier must register, attend the Shaklee Leadership Summit and book at one of our official Shaklee conference hotels. If the qualifier is set up for EFT/Direct Deposit, the set hotel reimbursement dollar amount will be paid via Direct Deposit the week after they attend. If they are not set up on EFT/Direct Deposit, the qualifier will be reimbursed in their following PV commission check.
Additional Requirements
- Don't let your Organization Volume (OV) drop. When you advance in rank above your Rank Up Base Rank, you must hold your OV. Your OV must be higher than your OV in the month prior to your rank advancement each month after the rank advancement.
- Example 1: Leader Janice, who has a Rank Up Base Rank of Executive Coordinator, advances in Paid As Rank from Executive Coordinator to Senior Executive Coordinator. Janice's Organizational Volume in the month prior to her rank advancement was 27,000 and grew to 32,500 in the month of her advancement. Janice must maintain her new Paid As Rank for three additional consecutive months and her OV must remain above 27,000 in each month of her maintenance to be eligible to receive the 2024 Rank Up Bonus for Senior Executive Coordinator.
- Example 2: Leader Robert, whose Rank Up Base Rank is Senior Coordinator, advances in Paid As Rank from Senior Coordinator to Executive Coordinator. In the month prior to his rank advancement, Robert had 24,500 Organizational Volume but was missing his third First-Generation Leader leg to qualify for Executive Coordinator. In the month of his rank advancement, Robert acquires his third First-Generation Leader leg; however, his Organizational Volume falls to 20,300, lower than his OV in the month prior to his rank advancement. This month will not count as his first month at the new higher Paid As Rank, because his OV is not higher than his OV in the month prior to his rank advancement. If, in the next month, Robert remains at the new higher Paid -As Rank and increases his OV to a level above 24,500, that month may count as his first month at the new higher Paid -As Rank.
- No more than two people advancing to any new Paid As Rank within a given leg may earn any award at the same time, on the same underlying downline volume. The two people who are lower in the downline genealogy, who are advancing to any new Paid As Rank, will be eligible for the award.
Under this rule, Senior Director and above rank promotions will be evaluated separately from Director rank promotions, meaning that a Director promotion below a Senior Director or above will not be considered a stacked rank promotion for determining the lowest two in the genealogy.
Example: If Tom promotes to the rank of Senior Coordinator in May 2024, his First-Generation Business Leader Eric promotes to the rank of Coordinator in May 2024, and Eric's First-Generation Business Leader Joe promotes to Senior Director in May 2024, then Eric and Joe will need to complete their maintenance period through August 2024. Tom can begin his Rank Up Bonus qualification starting in September, after Eric and Joe have completed and earned their Rank Up Bonuses. - To grow a healthy Shaklee business, you need customers (Retail Customers and Members), in addition to Business Builders (Ambassadors and Business Leaders). Each month during your Rank Up qualification, you must have the following in your Personal Group:
- A minimum of 6 Guests or Members with product orders each month during the qualification. The Personal Group Volume from these Guests and Members must equal a minimum of 500 PV or above, each month during the qualification.
- Retail Customers and Member orders must be from unique customers with separate shipping addresses.
- Retails Customer and Members must use unique credit cards. Orders paid through prepaid credit cards will not be permitted to count toward any Rank Up qualifications.
- Any return of product that counted toward qualification of any award will disqualify that award and will result in the forfeiture/deduction of any award(s) paid from the qualifier and/or their upline Business Leader(s).
Terms and Conditions
2024 Rank Up and Reorganizations
The Company will not approve any reorganization or sponsorship line movement where the new Sponsor, new Business Leader, any intervening Ambassador between the new Sponsor and new Business Leader, or any upline Business Leader within six generations is in qualification for a 2024 Rank Up Bonus or is still within the timeframe where they could be in qualification for a 2024 Rank Up incentive, unless the new Sponsor, new Business Leader, any intervening Ambassadors, and the six upline Business Leaders relinquish their eligibility to participate in the 2024 Rank Up incentive, as evidenced by their signatures on the Reorganization Form.
From time to time, a new prospect may accidentally sign up on the wrong Personal Website, or under the wrong sponsor, through no fault of the website owner. In those cases, the new Member/Ambassador and/or their current Business Leader of record may contact Shaklee with the Reorganization Application within 30 days of signing up online to be transferred to the correct sponsor. In such cases, the Original Sponsor will be changed as well and the 2024 Rank Up eligibility of the uplines of the Original Sponsor will not be affected.
In addition, the Company reserves the right to review, to disallow, and/or to rescind any reorganization into or within the downline of anyone whom they promote to any Business Leader rank that assists in qualifying for any 2024 Rank Up Bonus, if Shaklee determines that qualification for the 2024 Rank Up award is due in whole or in part to the reorganization. Alternatively, the Company reserves the right to exclude any of the uplines involved, regardless of rank, from participation in the 2024 Rank Up incentive.
In the case of a separation, divorce, or full or partial dissolution of a Combined Ambassadorship, if any first-level Shaklee Family Member is moved with the departing member, then for purposes of the 2024 Rank Up incentive, the Company will treat the transaction as a reorganization subject to the rules above. If there is a court order specifying how the first levels are to be divided, then Shaklee will determine on a case-by-case basis eligibility for participating in the 2024 Rank Up incentive.
Rank Up bonuses may not be earned from a reorganization, roll-up, or sponsorship line movement. Shaklee reserves the right to determine in its sole discretion whether an award is appropriate.
2024 Rank Up and Purchase/Sale or Survivorship Transactions
In the case of a Purchase/Sale or Survivorship transaction, the buyer/transferee may no longer participate in the 2024 Rank Up incentive.
The 2024 Rank Up eligibility and qualifications, if any, of the seller/transferor are considered personal to the seller/transferor and do not transfer to the buyer/transferee.
In addition, the buyer/transferee relinquishes any 2024 Rank Up eligibility or qualifications related to the sponsorship position they are leaving.
P&R Provisions
In order to participate in the 2024 Rank Up Incentive, you must be in compliance with all provisions of the Statement of Privileges and Responsibilities of Shaklee Family Members (P&R), including, but not limited to, the following:
Chapter 1, Other Director Requirements Section
Although Business Leaders may share the expense of office space and one Business Leader may help another through temporary difficulties (but not on a continuing or indeterminate basis), Business Leaders may not prop up a sham or "paper" Business Leader through diverted orders or other devices. "Paper" Business Leaders are those who are Business Leaders in name only and do not actively operate their Shaklee businesses but allow other Business Leaders to sustain and direct their sales leadership functions. This prohibition applies to all Business Leader ranks.
Chapter 3, PV Transfers Section
Business Leaders may not transfer any PV amounts out of their account in any given month that would bring their volume below the level required for them to maintain rank.
A Legacy Business Leader may make a PV Transfer to a Dream Plan Business Leader. To cover the Company's costs, including equalizing the difference in bonuses and price tiers between the Dream Plan and the Legacy Plan, Shaklee will charge the Legacy Business Leader's account an amount equal to 15% of the PV transferred and the charge will be deducted on the Legacy Business Leader's Bonus Statement. For example, if a Legacy Business Leader transfers 100 PV to a Dream Plan Business Leader, $15 will be deducted on the Legacy Business Leader's Bonus Statement.
No PV Transfers may be made from anyone in the Dream Plan to anyone in the Legacy Plan.
No Shaklee Family Member may transfer more than 250 PV total to any other Shaklee Family Member in a given month.
No Shaklee Family Member may receive, whether directly or indirectly (including by transfers to Members, Ambassadors, or Associates in the Shaklee Family Member's Personal Group), more than 250 PV transferred from all sources combined in any given month.
Transfers from non-Business Leaders to Business Leaders are not permitted, except in exceptional situations and with Home Office approval.
Ambassadors and Associates who have sufficient Personal Volume may transfer PV to another Shaklee Family Member in their Personal Group if their Business Leader of record participates in the PDD Program, and if the Ambassador or Associate has sufficient Personal Volume, subject to the foregoing 250 PV limits on transfers and receipts.
Any misuse of the PV transfer to circumvent sponsorship or leadership requirements, such as maintaining "paper" Business Leaders, is a breach of the P&R.
PV credits for all sales in any given month to a Shaklee Family Member in another Business Leader's Personal Group must be transferred to the purchasing Shaklee Family Member if their Business Leader of record participates in the PDD Program, or to the Shaklee Family Member's Business Leader of record if not. Any transfers to a Shaklee Family Member in another Business Leader's Personal Group will be included in the 250 PV maximum of that Shaklee Family Member, of the Shaklee Family Member's Business Leader of record, and of any Shaklee Family Members who intervene in the sponsorship line between the Shaklee Family Member and the Business Leader of record.
Chapter 3, Export/Import Policy Section (applicable to U.S. Shaklee Family Members)
The products of Shaklee U.S., LLC have been formulated, manufactured, and labeled to comply with U.S. regulatory requirements. The Shaklee products formulated, manufactured, and labeled to comply with the laws of other countries, including Canada, do not necessarily comply with U.S. regulatory requirements.

Shaklee U.S., LLC will not honor any product guarantee or warranty for products sold in violation of this provision, and any Shaklee Family Member or Shaklee Independent Ambassador engaging in such sales will be solely responsible for the products and any related claims or complaints.
Shaklee Independent Ambassadors may, however, sell and ship Shaklee products to purchasers in other countries where Shaklee does not do business for the purchaser's personal use only, and not for resale to others. If Shaklee operates a business in any market, products of another country may not be shipped to that market for any purpose whatsoever.
Chapter 3, Export/Import Policy Section (applicable to Canadian Shaklee Family Members)
The products of Shaklee Canada Inc. have been formulated, manufactured, and labeled to comply with Canadian regulatory requirements. The Shaklee products formulated, manufactured, and labeled to comply with the laws of other countries, including the United States, do not necessarily comply with Canadian regulatory requirements. Therefore, Shaklee Independent Ambassadors may not, directly or indirectly, export the products of Shaklee Canada Inc. for resale in another country, nor may a Shaklee Independent Ambassador directly or indirectly import Shaklee products from another country for resale within Canada. Shaklee Canada Inc. will not honor any product guarantee or warranty for products sold in violation of this provision, and any Shaklee Family Member or Shaklee Independent Ambassador engaging in such sales will be solely responsible for the products and any related claims or complaints.
Shaklee Independent Ambassadors may, however, sell and ship Shaklee products to purchasers in other countries where Shaklee does not do business for the purchaser's personal use only, and not for resale to others. If Shaklee operates a business in any market, products of another country may not be shipped to that market for any purpose whatsoever.
Chapter 3, Doing Business on the Internet Section, Prohibited Online Business Practices
Shaklee products may not be marketed on Amazon, eBay, TaoBao, Craigslist, Backpage, Kijiji, other online auction websites, or any e-commerce sites or price-comparison websites that list other products. Ambassadors may not market directly on these sites, or through the use of any other individuals or agents.
Company's Right to Change/Cancel Incentive Programs and/or Terms
Shaklee may, at its discretion, alter, limit, or modify the 2024 Rank Up program. Company reserves the right to change or modify Incentive Program terms and conditions or terminate any Incentive Program at any time, for any reason, without prior notice. Your continued participation in any Incentive Program will confirm your acceptance of such changes. The Company reserves the right to monitor the accounts of all participants, at any time and without notice, for compliance with Incentive Program rules. All interpretations of Incentive Program terms and conditions are at the Company's sole discretion, and the Company's decisions will be final. In the event of any discrepancy between the English version and any translated version of any Incentive Program rules, the English language version will govern.
Earnings
Shaklee makes no promises or guarantees regarding income, and the success or failure of each Shaklee Ambassador, like any other business, depends on your own skills and personal effort. Actual financial results of all Shaklee Ambassadors for the preceding year are contained in the Average Earnings Chart linked at the top of this page which does not include Ambassador costs.
Audit Rights
Shaklee reserves the right to audit any activity, for any reason. If there appears to be deception and/or unethical business practices by those in qualification for any Incentive, they will be disqualified, and further action may be taken for breach of the P&R. Examples include but are not limited to shared addresses, forms of payments and shared bank accounts.
Car Bonus Program
Build your Shaklee business and grow to higher levels of Leadership, and you'll be rewarded with progressively larger payments toward your new car.
Overview
Take a look under the hood of the Car Bonus Program.
Once the qualification has been completed, Shaklee will send a packet to you that contains the required paperwork along with more details on the options that are available for participating in the Car Bonus Program. In addition, we include several gifts, that you can use on your new Shaklee car.
- Business Leaders in the Dream Plan are eligible for the Car Bonus Program.
- Qualified Business Leaders who have an eligible vehicle that they already own can participate in the Car Bonus Program as well.
- The vehicle may be either a new or certified pre-owned vehicle with model year within the last five years (e.g., If the registration is submitted in 2022, then the model year can be 2018 or newer).
- Business Leaders may participate in the Car Bonus Program for each rank only once.
How It Works
Earn up to $1,500 in car payments each month for up to 36 months per rank.
When you build a Shaklee business and grow to higher levels of Leadership while accumulating higher volumes of product sales, Shaklee will reward you with progressively larger car payments.
Payoff Bonus Schedule
Shaklee Business Leader Rank | Car (Product Sales) Volume Requirement | Payout Gas/Hybrid |
Senior Director | 5,000 | Earn $225/$250 |
Senior Coordinator | 7,000 | Earn $325/$375 |
Senior Executive Coordinator | 9,000 | Earn $400/$450 |
Senior Key Coordinator | 13,000 | Earn $450/$500 |
Master Coordinator | 15,000 | Earn $500/$600 |
Presidential Master Coordinator | 23,000 | Earn $1,400/$1,500 |
Each term is 36 months, and payouts will be paid in each month in which the Business Leader has met the minimum requirements.
If a Business Leader's Paid As Title falls below the minimum requirement for the current term in any given month, the Business Leader will earn the next lower Rank Payout (example: If a Business Leader in the Sr Coordinator Car Bonus term, fails to maintain their Sr Coordinator Paid As title, they will receive $225/$250 payout for that month as long as they have the 7,000 CV for that month).
If a Business Leader has less than the minimum CV requirement in any given month, or takes a Volume Grace Month, there will not be a payout made for that month.
Don't let that stop you from advancing in Rank!
If you are currently participating in the Sr Director Car Bonus Program, and you become a Sr Coordinator doing 7000 CV, you will earn the higher payout for that month.
This does not impact the Business Leader's eligibility to participate in the Sr Coordinator Car Program, once the 36 months in the Sr Director Program has ended.
Once any 36-month term has been accomplished, there is a three-month qualification period for the new, higher title and CV requirements.
Drive-Off or Down Payment Assistance
Reserve up to six months of bonuses to use toward a lease or down payment.
If you don't have a down payment right now to purchase a car, Shaklee will bank your earned Car Bonus payouts so you will have a lump sum of funds to use toward your Drive-off fees for a leased vehicle or toward the down payment of a purchased vehicle.
Business Leaders may request to have Shaklee reserve up to six months of Car Bonuses for them, which they may use toward the Drive-off charges on a car lease or toward the down payment on a purchased vehicle. Business Leaders who wish to request this option will send in the Car Bonus Program Drive-Off/Down Payment Assistance Agreement to Shaklee indicating this choice.
The remaining period during which monthly car bonuses can be earned will be reduced by the number of months that bonuses have been placed on reserve, and will start in the month after Shaklee receives documentation of the purchase or lease of a car. Once the reserve period has elapsed, a request to receive these funds must be made within 90 days.
Once the check has been issued for the reserved funds, a copy of a purchase or lease agreement must be received by Shaklee within 60 days of the date of the check. If Shaklee does not receive a copy of the Purchase or Lease Agreement within the 60-day period, Shaklee may debit your Shaklee account for the amount of the check issued for these reserved funds.
Registration
Whether you are using a vehicle you already own, or you are planning on going car shopping, the forms that need to be sent to Shaklee are the same.
Business Leaders wishing to participate in the Car Bonus Program must send to Shaklee a completed Car Program Registration form, along with documentation of car lease or purchase, and a picture of the Business Leader with their car, within 6 months after the Qualification Period is completed.
Frequently Asked Questions
The hows, whens, and whats of the Car Bonus Program.
What is the Shaklee Car Program, and who is eligible to participate?
The Shaklee Car Program is an exciting element in our rewards and incentives program.
Anyone who is a Business Leader in the Dream Plan may participate by achieving the qualifications at each of the ranks listed below, and then meeting the specified minimum Car Volume (CV) for your rank, each and every month during the payment period.
Shaklee Business Leader Rank | Car (Product Sales) Volume Requirement | Payout Gas/Hybrid |
Senior Director | 5,000 | Earn $225/$250 |
Senior Coordinator | 7,000 | Earn $325/$375 |
Senior Executive Coordinator | 9,000 | Earn $400/$450 |
Senior Key Coordinator | 13,000 | Earn $450/$500 |
Master Coordinator | 15,000 | Earn $500/$600 |
Presidential Master Coordinator | 23,000 | Earn $1,400/$1,500 |
What is "Car Volume" and how is it calculated?
Car Volume (CV) is defined as your unencumbered Personal Group Volume plus up to 2000 in credit for each first-generation leader.
What is unencumbered Personal Group Volume?
Unencumbered volume is a term that only really applies in the month that you promote a First Generation Director. It refers to your total Personal Group Volume, not including the Personal Group Volume of that First Generation Director in the month that he or she promotes.
What are some examples of how this would work?
Example: Jean becomes a Senior Director, with one first generation leader who does 2000. Her own Personal Group Volume is 3000 and she gets credit for 2000 of the volume that her first generation leader does. She has a total of 5000 CV, and once she maintains this for three consecutive months, she will have qualified for the Senior Director Car.
Example: Michael is a Senior Director as well, but with two first generation leaders. In the month they promote, Michael's Unencumbered Group Volume is 1000. His two leaders each earn him a credit of 2000, for a total of 4000. He has a total of 5000 CV, and once he maintains this for three consecutive months, he too will have qualified for the Senior Director Car.
What is the impact of a Volume Grace Month on someone who is in qualification to participate in the Car Program for their rank?
Any month in which you take a Volume Grace Month (VGM) or waiver cannot be counted as part of your qualification. Likewise, any month in which you take a VGM while you are receiving car payments makes you ineligible to receive a car payment for that month, regardless of whether or not other qualifications have been met.
What if one of my first generation leaders has a Volume Grace Month – do I get credit for their volume?
Yes, the way it works is you earn up to 2000 in credit for each first generation leader. But if the first generation leader is in a VGM and does less, you get credit for their actual volume.
Once someone qualifies, what do they need to do to earn the car payment? How long is the payment period?
Once a Business Leader has completed the required three-month Qualification Period, Shaklee will email the Car Bonus Program packet that includes the options and next steps. The payment period for each rank's Car Program is 36 months.
Is there a maintenance requirement?
Yes, you must maintain the required CV for your rank each and every month during the payment period in order to receive a car payment.
How is the Car Bonus paid?
Car Bonus payments appear on the Summary page of the monthly Bonus statement each month they are earned, as well as in the Car Bonus Program section that includes each month's payments and the accumulated amount of Car Bonus payouts earned to date. Also included is the number of months remaining in the current term.
What if my rank falls below the rank of the Car Program in which I'm participating?
As long as your required CV for your rank is met, you will still receive a car payment, but it will be the payment associated with your Paid As rank for that month.
What if my CV falls below the required amount?
In any month in which your CV falls below the required amount for your rank, no car payment will be paid for that month.
What if my rank increases while I'm participating in the Car Program?
If your rank increases to another rank at which you could qualify for a higher car payment, then we will increase your payment, as long as you also achieve the CV required for that rank. This does not impact your eligibility to then participate in the Car Program for the higher ranks, once the 36 months in the lower rank Car Program have passed.
What if I don't have the down payment or initial payment for a lease in order to purchase or lease a car at the time I am qualified?
Business Leaders may choose to have Shaklee reserve six months of Car Bonuses for them, which they may use to pay the "drive-off" charges on a car lease or the down payment for a purchase. Business Leaders who wish to use this option need to indicate that on the Car Program Registration form and fill out the Drive-Off/Down Payment Agreement Form. The remaining period during which monthly car bonuses can be earned will be reduced by the number of months that bonuses have been placed on reserve.
What if I accrue banked funds but don't purchase/lease a new car?
Any banked amounts accrued can only be used toward the purchase or lease of a qualifying car.
What if I receive the banked funds but don't purchase or lease a new car?
If proof of purchase/lease is not provided to Shaklee within the 60-day window, these banked funds issued may be charged back to your Shaklee account.
What happens after the payment period is over?
Dream Plan Business Leaders may participate in the Car Program for each rank only once. So while you are participating in the Car Program for your rank, you will also be working to achieve the next rank at which you can participate again. Once you have achieved that higher rank and completed the qualifications for the Car Bonus at that new level, you can sign a new Car Program Registration form for the next 36-month term and continue to receive payments.
Can I receive car payments for a car that I have already purchased or leased (before my qualifications were completed?
Yes. The car may be either a new car or certified pre-owned car with model year within the last three years.
If I earn the ability to participate in the Car Program, can I choose to receive the payment without a car?
No. The car payment is only paid if proof of purchase or lease of a car is provided.
Shaklee makes no promises or guarantees regarding income, and the success or failure of each Shaklee Ambassador, like any other business, depends on your own skills and personal effort. Actual financial results of all Shaklee Ambassadors for the preceding year are contained in the Average Earnings Statement which does not include Ambassador costs.
