For a Utility Warehouse Distributor, the potential rewards are impressive – immediate income, residual, cash bonuses, car plan, holiday incentives and share options!

Utility Warehouse Distributor rewards in summary

• Customer Gathering Bonus (CGB)

  Utility Warehouse Distributor rewards include a Customer Gathering Bonus for every new customer they gather. For IDs, the more services the customer takes, the higher the amount of CGB available. To generate CGB, the customer must become active with at least one live Eligible Service. There is no limit to the number of customers you can gather or the amount of CGB you can earn – in fact, the more the better, as the more personal customers you have, the quicker your monthly income will grow.

• Fast Start Bonus

  New IDs can qualify for a £100 Fast Start Bonus if they gather three Gold customers within 30 days of their joining date.

• Residual income

  Residual Income is the way we share with our Partners the profits we are making from the customers they have gathered personally (Personal Residual Income), and also (but at a different rate) a share of the profits we are making on customers gathered by Partners in their team (Group Residual Income). Both types of Residual Income are calculated at the same time and paid monthly, based on the amount that customers were billed for using our services, or the number of services they paid to use in the preceding month. It is also possible to accelerate payment of Personal Residual Income that you will earn on certain new customers by opting into QUIP (see below).

• Team Building Bonus (TBB)

  In order to encourage coaching, we pay all IDs that assist new Partners to gather customers in the first 30 days matching CGB on the first six face-to-face customers gathered by each of their new IDs within 30 days of their (the new ID’s) Joining Date.

• Leadership Development Bonus (LDB)

  To encourage Leaders to drive and support promotions within their teams, Group Leaders and Senior Group Leaders can qualify for a LDB.

• Promotional Bonuses (PB)

  To encourage and reward those IDs who are working consistently at building their business, a Promotion Bonus is payable on achieving promotion to a new title of Team Leader or above within a pre-determined period of their most recent promotion. The value of the Promotion Bonus increases with your title, from £300 when you reach TL up to £20,000 on becoming NNL – you could earn a total of up to £38,500 in Promotion Bonuses as you climb the Stairway to Success!

• Plus Clubs

  Any ID who has gathered 50, 100, 200, 500 or 1,000 Active personal customers is automatically promoted to our exclusive ‘Plus Clubs’. While they remain a Plus Club member, they are paid a higher level of Personal Residual Income each month, and are eligible to receive a range of other valuable benefits.

• Distributor Car Plan

  Once you have successfully established yourself as a Team Leader with an average monthly Residual Income of £200 (or less if you are opted into QUIP – see point 11 of the Payment Plan section for more details) over the previous three months, you can apply for a brand new BMW Mini (or if you are SGL in Status, you can apply for a brand new BMW X5). Additional bonuses (based on earning Activity Points) are available to IDs on the Car Plan, which can help bring down the cost of owning these cars.

• Home-Starter

  Home-Starter is designed to give IDs the opportunity to get onto the housing ladder, by providing them with a £25,000 deposit to use towards purchasing their first home.

  To receive the £25,000 deposit (which is a loan) you will need to successfully gather one member a week (on average) over five years. There are no monthly targets, but you must gather a minimum of 40 gross new members each year for at least four years and achieve the overall targets for this incentive.

  After receiving your Home-Starter Loan, then provided that you continue gathering (on average) four customers per month for another five years, we will write-off the loan so it never needs to be repaid; this is explained in detail below. Important note: Your Home-Starter deposit is a Loan repayable out of future income generated by your Utility Warehouse position. If you do not meet the minimum activity requirements after receiving your £25,000 Loan, then interest and repayments will be deducted from your monthly commission as set out below.

• Retirement Plan

  IDs who have achieved a Status of SGL (or above) can choose to retire from the business and ‘lock-in’ their future entitlement to Residual Income. Under our Retirement Plan, your income can even continue to grow depending on activity within your Group.

• Holiday incentives

  Utility Warehouse offer regular holiday incentives for their Partners. These range from luxury European weekend breaks to all expenses paid holidays of a lifetime to locations all over the world. Options are always included to cater for family rewards. Current incentives include: Lisbon, Maldives, Zanzibar and Mexico.

• Share options

  At Utility Warehouse, we have always recognised that our Partners are one of our most important assets and we believe that everyone who is contributing to the success and growth of the Company should share in the wealth that is being created.

  Utility Warehouse is one of the first Referral Marketing Companies in the world to implement an Equity Share Option Scheme for the benefit of its Partners. The share options issued so far to our Partners have been worth many millions of pounds and the intention is to make further allocations in the future. Equity Share Options give all Partners the opportunity to share in the future success of the Company and create substantial personal wealth, without financial risk.

• Quick Income Plan (QUIP)

  Our Quick Income Plan (QUIP) is designed to help you recruit more new Partners, give you the opportunity to earn more money, more quickly and enable you to build your UW business on a full-time basis, by accelerating payment of the commission you will earn on Daffi Double Gold customers. With QUIP, you can accelerate payment of between £50 and £300 of Personal Residual Income for each relevant new customer.

• Recognition

  Nothing is more important to us than recognising your success. We therefore have a comprehensive Recognition Programme, which could see you being presented with Lapel Pins, Certificates, Trophies, Champagne and many other awards – even a Porsche Boxster, or a luxury holiday! We have special Plus Clubs for our top Customer Gatherers, and frequent competitions with superb prizes which everyone can win.

  At regular intervals, we run a Partner Express Day when the corporate Directors and Leading Distributors present awards and celebrate your achievements. We recognise not only star performers, but also high flying new participants, as we know how everyone needs encouragement at the start.
