How it’s worked out

40% of $5,000 in services is $2,000. Retail at 10% of $500 adds $50, and six memberships at $15 each add $90 — $2,140 in total.

Some spas pay a flat amount by treatment length instead of a percentage; the spa guide compares both.

Common questions

What commission do massage therapists get?

A percentage of the service price — often 35% to 50% — or a flat amount per treatment by length, with retail and memberships paid separately.

Should add-ons be paid at the service rate?

Many spas pay add-ons like hot stones or aromatherapy at the same rate as the service, since they extend the treatment. Say so in the written plan.

Are tips included?

No — tips belong to the therapist and aren’t commissionable sales.
