UNIT Commission Structures
All units
receive a base commission of 32%. The Prize Option includes Walmart or Amazon gift cards for Scouts based on the cumulative dollar value of popcorn each Scout sells: the more
popcorn sold, the higher the value of the gift card they receive. Additional
prizes and incentives are available to individual Scouts who reach certain
sales goals. All prizes,
including gift cards, will be mailed to the unit popcorn chairperson when the
prize order is placed.
Your unit
may select the Money Only Option, which returns a slightly higher commission
of 35%. No Council prizes (gift cards) are available to units choosing this option. However, Scouts
in units choosing this option are still eligible for the Trail’s End
Scholarship program, $100 Military Club, $500 Online Bonus, $1,500 bonus prize,
the “$600 Club” Zyclone incentive, and the Free Camp incentive.
By submitting certain forms, increasing your sale, and paying on-time, your unit can earn a 
2% Bonus Commission.
