Star Club Bonuses

Earn as you grow your customer base and team with Star Club Bonuses.

How it works:

  • Earn a $75 Star Club Bonus each time you have $500 in product sales from new people in a calendar month with at least (3) new enrollments.
  • Do it again in the same calendar month, and you’ll earn another $75.
    • For example, if you have $1,000 in product sales from new people in a month with at least (6) new enrollments, you will earn a total of $150 in Star Club Bonuses. We’ll reward you every time!

    You can earn up to 15 Star Club Bonuses each month!

What are new enrollments?

  • A new enrollment is a Retail Customer, Member, or Ambassador who places their first product order of any size.
  • You must be the Original Sponsor (at the time of purchase) of the new Member or Ambassador on their first purchase.
  • The Retail Customer’s order must be first level to you.
  • The count of new Retail Customers, Members, or Ambassadors starts over with each calendar month, so you must sponsor at least three new Retail Customers, Members, or Ambassadors in the month, with a total of $500 of product sales to earn a Star Club Bonus.

What counts as product sales from new people?

  • You must have a minimum of $500 in sales (cumulative) from a minimum of 3 new people in a calendar month to earn a Star Club Bonus.
  • Product sales from new people includes the first purchase a new Retail Customer, Member, or Ambassador places at their purchase price (excluding taxes, shipping, non-PV items, and join kits) in the month they are sponsored.
  • The first order placed counts, regardless of size. Any subsequent orders placed do not count toward product sales from new people for Star Club Bonuses. Unfortunately, due to system limitations, no exceptions can be made to count sales from any order other than the first order.

Who is eligible to earn Star Club Bonuses?

  • Star Club Bonuses can be earned by a new or existing Ambassador, Associate, or Business Leader. You must be the Original Sponsor (at the time of purchase) of the new Member or Ambassador on their first purchase. Retail Customer first purchases must be first level to the Ambassador, Associate or Business Leader.
  • You can earn up to 15 Star Club Bonuses each month while sharing Shaklee products.
  • You do not have to be bonus eligible (with a 100 PV personal order) to earn a Star Club Bonus.
  • In the event the Original Sponsor is a Member or is no longer active, the new join order will count for the next eligible Original Sponsor.

What if I am a new Ambassador?

The month you become an Ambassador, you are given the remainder of that month, plus a full calendar month to earn your first Star Club Bonuses. We combine your counts and sales over your first two months to help give you more time to earn a Star Club Bonus. If you are someone that earns more than one Star Club Bonus during this time, you may need to look at your previous month history and your current month to get an accurate snapshot of your total Star Club Bonus activity and achievements during your first two combined months. You can earn a maximum of 15 Star Club Bonuses in each calendar month.

Star Club Bonus Payments

  • Star Club Bonuses will be paid weekly (processed on Wednesday, deposited on Thursday), accompanied by a new Report in the Back Office that details bonuses included in each weekly payment.
  • Shaklee generally pays bonuses monthly; however, Star Club Bonuses are paid weekly, when you are registered for direct deposit of your bonuses. Qualifiers without Direct Deposit will be paid in their monthly Bonus/Commission check.
