How does the AXEN commission structure work?
AXEN offers two plans: Pro Plan at $500 per closing with a $6,000 annual cap, and Elite Plan at $1,000 per closing with a $12,000 annual cap. After you hit your cap, you keep 100% of every commission for the rest of your anniversary year. No percentage splits ever.
What is the cap and how does it work?
Your cap is the maximum total fees you pay AXEN in a year. Pro Plan caps at $6,000 (about 20 closings), Elite Plan at $12,000 (about 60 closings). Once you hit your cap, you pay $0 per closing for the remainder of that anniversary year. The cap resets annually from your join date.
Is there a monthly fee or desk fee?
There's a $50/month platform fee that covers your full tech stack, Deal Desk, and contract management. It can be paid monthly or deducted from closings. No desk fees and no percentage splits. The flat closing fee stops once you hit your annual cap.
What is same-day pay?
AXEN agents get paid the same day their deal closes. No waiting days or weeks for commission checks, and your money hits your account the same day you close.
Does AXEN offer a reverse sign-on bonus?
Yes. Your first few closings are fee-free, so you start earning right away without owing anything back.
What is the revenue share program?
AXEN offers a 5-level revenue share program. When agents you recruit close deals, you earn a percentage of their transaction fees, up to 5 levels deep. The more agents in your network, the more you earn. Details are available on the
Why AXEN page.
What technology does AXEN provide?
Every AXEN agent gets Lofty CRM with built-in IDX website, SkySlope transaction management and e-signatures, Google Workspace (email, drive, calendar), AI-powered marketing tools, and Deal Desk transaction coordination — all included at no extra cost.
What is Deal Desk?
Deal Desk is AXEN's in-house transaction coordination team. They handle contract review, compliance, deadline tracking, and title company communication. You get a TC on every deal so you can focus on selling.
How do I get my own website and CRM?
Lofty CRM with a built-in IDX website is included for all AXEN agents. Setup instructions arrive via email after onboarding, typically within 48 hours. If you don't receive them, visit

What is NEXA Lending and how does it relate to AXEN?
NEXA Lending is one of the largest mortgage companies in the US. AXEN was built from day one in partnership with NEXA, giving agents access to in-house lending with faster turn times and competitive rates. Chase Lance, AXEN co-founder, is a former NEXA branch manager.
Do I have to use NEXA Lending?
No. AXEN and NEXA are affiliated, but you can use any lender you want. A lot of agents like having NEXA there for faster processing and dual-licensing income, but it's your call.
