Standard member economics

Brokerage share first. Team split second.

Epique's company brokerage share applies first to gross commission income (GCI), according to current brokerage terms. The remaining amount is the Team Commission Base (TCB).

The standard Vanguard member receives 80% of TCB; 20% of TCB contributes to Vanguard. There are no Vanguard monthly membership fees. Brokerage fees and deductions are separate.

Two separate opportunities

Participation without income promises

Epique company revenue share

Epique's company revenue-sharing program is governed by the brokerage's current terms and eligibility rules. It is separate from Vanguard member compensation and sponsorship.

Vanguard three-level sponsor program

Under Epique-aligned rules, each of three eligible sponsor levels receives 10% of the Vanguard 20% contribution—not 10% of gross commission. The direct Level 1 sponsor provides member support, with upstream Level 2 and Level 3 participation.

For example, if the Vanguard contribution is $1,700, 10% is $170 for each eligible sponsor level, subject to the program rules. This is an illustration, not an income guarantee.

You do not have to recruit to remain a Vanguard member. Eligibility and participation are governed by the applicable program terms; no income is guaranteed.
