Question 1

What does counsellor incentive payout software actually do?

Accepted Answer

It lets a consultancy define its own incentive or commission rules for internal counsellors — for example, a fixed amount per case closed, a percentage of consultancy fee collected, or a slab-based structure that changes past a monthly case-count threshold — and then automatically calculates what each counsellor has earned based on real case and payment data already in VisaBOS, rather than someone manually cross-referencing a spreadsheet against case records every month. Each calculated incentive moves through a review and approval step before being marked paid, with a full audit trail of every calculation and decision.

Question 2

How is this different from sub-agent commission tracking?

Accepted Answer

They track two different relationships and money flows. Sub-agent commission tracking is for external referral partners and sub-agents who bring in business from outside the consultancy and are paid a referral commission. Counsellor incentive payout software is for your own internal staff — the counsellors on your payroll — being paid a performance incentive on top of salary for cases they personally handled and closed. The underlying case and revenue data can be shared between the two, but the rule structures, the people being paid, and the approval chain are kept separate so the two payout types are never confused on a report.

Question 3

Does VisaBOS actually pay out the incentive to the counsellor?

Accepted Answer

No. VisaBOS calculates what a counsellor has earned based on your configured rules and real case data, and tracks that calculation through review, approval, and a 'paid' status once your consultancy has actually disbursed the amount — through payroll, bank transfer, or however your business normally pays staff. VisaBOS is not a payroll system and does not itself move money to a counsellor's bank account; marking an incentive as paid is a record-keeping step your team performs once the actual payment has happened outside the platform.

Question 4

How are incentive rules configured?

Accepted Answer

A consultancy defines its own rules per counsellor role or individually — for example, a fixed amount per case marked approved, a percentage of the consultancy fee collected on a case, or a slab structure where the per-case rate increases once a counsellor crosses a monthly case-count threshold. Rules are entirely configurable by the consultancy; VisaBOS does not prescribe or recommend a specific incentive structure, since compensation policy is a business decision for the consultancy to make, not something a software vendor should dictate.

Question 5

What data does VisaBOS use to calculate an incentive automatically?

Accepted Answer

The calculation draws on case status (for example, whether a case is marked approved or filed, depending on how a rule is defined) and the actual consultancy fee amounts recorded and collected on that case through the existing payment and invoicing records — the same records used by our GST invoicing and accounting features. Because the calculation pulls from real, already-recorded case and payment data rather than a manually maintained spreadsheet, the incentive figure stays consistent with what actually happened on each case.

Question 6

Is there an approval step before a counsellor is told what they will be paid?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A calculated incentive amount moves to a review stage where a branch manager or admin can check it against the underlying cases before approving it, and can adjust or dispute a line item if a case was miscategorized or a rule was misapplied — rather than the calculated figure going straight to the counsellor as a final number. Once approved, the incentive is confirmed for payout; once your consultancy has actually paid it, a staff member marks it paid in VisaBOS to close the loop.

Question 7

Can a counsellor see their own incentive calculation?

Accepted Answer

Yes, depending on the access level your consultancy configures for that role. A counsellor can typically see their own calculated and approved incentive amounts and which cases contributed to them, giving visibility into how the number was reached rather than receiving just a final figure with no breakdown — which reduces disputes and back-and-forth over how an amount was calculated.

Question 8

Is there a free trial for counsellor incentive payout tracking?

Accepted Answer

Yes — VisaBOS offers a 14-day free trial with full access to incentive rule configuration and payout tracking alongside every other feature, no credit card required. You can define a sample incentive rule, watch it calculate against test case data, move it through review and approval, and mark it paid before deciding to subscribe. Pricing starts at ₹5,000 per month, billed in INR.
