TOPs (Trainer Optional Program) Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can I sign up any 3 members in my first 18 days and receive a Triple Advance Commission?
All three new memberships must be Dental Plus memberships and you must be paid "advanced" commissions on all three to be eligible for the Triple Advance Commission. If you need to change your commission status to "advances", you may go to your IBO Support site and make the change. You may change your commissions back to "as-earned" at any time after you receive the 6-month advances on the 3 new Dental Plus plans.
2. When do I get paid my Triple Advance Commission?
After the full 18 day period is completed, AmeriPlan will look to see if you have three new active Dental Plus memberships signed up and that you were paid advances on all three. If that is the case, AmeriPlan will immediately pay out the remaining 12-month advances ($71.88 each) on all three plans since you have already received the 6-month advances ($35.94 each) at the time of sign up.
3. When do I get paid my Member Acquisition Bonus or my Quick Start Bonus?
Every week at the close of business Friday, we look to see who promoted to Certified Trainer (CT) for the previous week and compile them in a list. For the next week, the "Earn Week", we make sure the initial fees of the 3 members each CT signed up have cleared their banks. The following Monday, AmeriPlan will cut the checks for the QSB and MABs earned for those CTs.
4. I have signed up a new $495 IBO. Why do I not receive a $90 advance?
A new $495 IBO receives 3 free months of the $50/month IBO Benefits fees. Since we do not draft the new IBO any fees for the first 6 months, we cannot advance commissions but will pay the sponsoring IBO "as-earned" ($15) for the initial month. Once the 5 free month period is concluded, we will resume paying "as-earned" ($15) on the $50/month IBO Benefits fees.
5. I signed up a $95 IBO and it shows there is a 4-day hold on my $90 IBO advance. Is this due to the TOP program?
Any new IBO has a 72-hour "window" to sign up for the $400 optional TOP package and receive 5 free months of IBO Benefits fees. AmeriPlan will hold the $90 advance check until the 72-hour period is over to make sure we do not give a $90 advance on a new IBO that receives 3 free months of IBO Benefits fees.
6. Is there any disadvantage for a "Sponsoring IBO" not to talk about the $400 optional TOP program to a prospect who is signing up as an IBO?
When you do not discuss the $400 optional TOP program with a prospect who is signing up as an IBO, they will not know they can receive 3 free months of the IBO Benefits fees (a $150 value). Also, if you sign up a $95 IBO and, later on, they decide to become a Trainer by paying $400 for the optional TOP program, if they become a Certified Trainer (CT), AmeriPlan will deduct the unearned portion of the $90 advance you received from your Quick Start Bonus. You will then be paid "as-earned" on that IBO thereafter.
7. Is there difference in the 18 day "clock" for the Triple Advance Commission and the 28 day "clock" for the Certified Trainer?
The Triple Advance Commission "clock" starts on the day the IBO signs up for the $400 optional TOP program and ends at 5pm CST on the last business day of the 18 day period.
The Certified Trainer (CT) "clock" starts on the day the IBO signs up for the $400 optional TOP program and ends at midnight CST on the 28th day even if that day falls on a weekend or holiday.
8. If I do not qualify for the Triple Advance Commission by signing up 3 new Dental Plus Plans in 18 days, may I re-qualify at another time?
No, a new Trainer has only one opportunity to qualify for the Triple Advance Commission by signing up 3 new Dental Plus plans and be paid advances on them in their first 18 days of being a Trainer.
9. If I do not sign up 3 new members in my first 28 days of being a Trainer, will I be able to become a Certified Trainer (CT) at a later date?
No, a new Trainer must sign up 3 new members in their first 28 days to become a Certified Trainer (CT). However, any Trainer can become a Regional Trainer (RT) by signing up 6 new members and 4 new IBOs no matter if they were a Certified Trainer or not.
