Business Earnings – Unicity
The success of any business depends on the amount of product or services sold, used, and consumed through the business. As an independent Unicity Franchise Partner, you earn awards and bonuses based on the amount of sales generated by you and your extended team. You may build your business at your own pace, although there are benefits to building as quickly as possible. The most successful Franchise Partners focus on expanding their distribution force while adding to their customer bases over time.
To better understand the terms used in the Compensation Plan, it is recommended you review the glossary at the back of this booklet.

President’s Club Bonus and Recognition
The President’s Club Bonuses are one-time cash payments. You can receive the President’s Club Bonus for a specific Rank when you qualify for the respective Rank (or higher) for three consecutive months. Additionally, after you qualify for a President’s Club Rank for three consecutive months, you also become eligible to be publicly recognized as achieving the specific Rank.
Additional Franchise Position
When you achieve the Rank of Presidential Diamond for three consecutive months, you are then eligible to start an Additional Franchise Position (AFP). Likewise, you are eligible to start two more AFPs when you achieve the Ranks of Double Diamond and Triple Diamond, respectively, for a total of three AFPs. Your AFPs will automatically qualify for the Rank of Presidential Diamond as long as you remain qualified at the Rank of Presidential Diamond (for your first AFP), Double Diamond (for your second AFP), and Triple Diamond (for your third AFP). Qualified AFPs are eligible to receive Personal Rebates, Fast Start Bonuses, and Infinity Share Bonuses, allowing you to earn nearly double, triple, or quadruple the amount of such bonuses for Volume generated in your AFPs.
The following table sets forth the Rank, Volume, and Leg Volume requirements necessary to be eligible to start your AFPs, and the requirements necessary to achieve the Rank of Crown Diamond.
The following table sets forth the Rank, Volume, and Leg Volume requirements necessary to be eligible to start your AFPs, and the requirements necessary to achieve the Rank of Crown Diamond.
In addition to the foregoing requirements, a Franchise Partner must meet the 50% Leg Balance requirement for each of the Chairman’s Club Ranks and hold each Rank for three consecutive months. There are other details set forth in the Additional Franchise Position Application to ensure you properly structure your AFPs.
The diagram at the bottom of page 7 depicts the minimum leg requirements, assuming the total OV and Leg Balance OV requirements are met, to become a Crown Diamond.

In calculating an AFP’s OV, no OV of another AFP is included. For example, if your second AFP has 100,000 OV, your first AFP must have 100,000 OV in addition to the OV attributable to the second AFP.

Chairman’s Club Bonus and Recognition
As you achieve the Ranks of Double Diamond, Triple Diamond, and Crown Diamond for three consecutive months, you become a member of the Chairman’s Club and become eligible to receive Chairman’s Club Bonuses. These bonuses are lifestyle bonuses—not cash bonuses—and are tailored to fulfill the individual dreams of the recipient. As such, the exact bonuses may vary by country and by Franchise Partner. The following table reflects the general dollar value of each bonus in USD. After qualifying for the respective Ranks below for three consecutive months, you also become eligible to be publicly recognized as achieving the specific Rank.
