A draw against commission is an amount of money advanced against amounts you are expected to earn in future commissions. This arrangement can be very beneficial as it helps smooth the cash flow of a person paid on commission. When commissions are earned, the amount you have drawn is deducted and you are paid the balance of the commission. For example: Salesperson Depending on the way your draw contract is written you may end up responsible for repayment of any excess draw when you leave your position. Often, though, your liability is limited. When entering into a draw contract, as in any contract, you should be certain that you understand the terms and conditions to avoid complications later.

The commission paid would be $1500 - (3 x 400) or $300, so the salesperson's benefit would equal the entire $1500.

What does non recoverable draw mean?

A non-recoverable draw is a draw against future commissions that doesn't have to be paid back to the employer. A draw against commission works like this: Say I work for ABC company, they offer me $2000 per month draw. I go three months till I get my first sale of $8000, so the company would pay me the regular $2000 draw, they would "recover" the $6000 already made, and pay me the additional $2000. With that said, a "non-recoverable draw" unlike a "recoverable draw" means if you go a year without a sale you don't need to pay back the $24,000 you've been paid.
