The Semi-Monthly Bonus is calculated based on the Pay Out Value (POV) of the products and the percentage is based on the level of the total Group Point Value (GPV) a distributor has accumulated during the cycle. The higher the cycle PV achieved, the higher the percentage will be used to calculate the Semi-Monthly Bonus. This DLC bonus is based not only on the Distributor’s personal purchase but also includes all purchases made by all non-manager distributors under his/her organization. The difference in percentage between his/her Semi-Monthly Bonus and his/her active direct downlines’ Semi-Monthly Bonus will be the Override Bonus.

The value of 1 PV will be set based on the GDP of each country. For example, in North America 1 PV may be equivalent to US$1 while in Taiwan it may be equivalent to NT$33.
