What it is
What is sales commission software?
Sales commission software automates how variable pay is calculated, tracked, approved, and paid. It pulls deal data from your CRM, applies your plan rules — rates, tiers, accelerators, splits, and clawbacks — and shows every rep their real-time earnings, replacing the manual spreadsheet with consistent, auditable logic that scales as your team grows.
Centify is a no-code, real-time commission management platform built for sales, finance, and RevOps — especially European and SaaS teams moving off spreadsheets. It pairs a visual plan builder with live rep dashboards, developed and hosted in Germany with GDPR-native, ISO 27001 and SOC 2 aligned security.

Comparison
Commission software vs. spreadsheets
Excel works for a few reps on a flat plan; it breaks the moment plans, products, or headcount grow.
| Spreadsheets | Centify | |
|---|---|---|
| Accuracy | Broken formulas, 5–10% payout errors | Consistent, rule-based logic |
| Data freshness | Manual updates, often days old | Real-time from your CRM |
| Transparency | Hidden in tabs and files | Live dashboards for every rep |
| Audit trail | None | Every calculation logged |
| Scales with the team | Fragile beyond a few reps | Handles tiers, splits, multi-team |
