Performio

Performio is sales commission software for mid-market and enterprise finance and RevOps teams that calculates, approves and pays complex incentive plans.

Performio is sales commission software for companies whose incentive plans have outgrown spreadsheets. It calculates, reports and pays variable compensation for sales teams from one platform, so finance, sales operations and payroll work from the same numbers. The company of the same name makes it: founded in Australia in 2006 by sales compensation specialist David Marshall, owned by Stables Partners since June 2019, and run from a global headquarters in Irvine, California. Plan Management configures compensation plans without code: rates, tiers, matrix rates, accelerators and decelerators, quotas, SPIFFs and bonuses. Credit is assigned to participants, teams and territories and rolled up or down the management hierarchy, and payout rules cover clawbacks, true-ups, adjustments and reconciliations. Commission Reporting gives reps and managers real-time dashboards of earnings and quota attainment on desktop or mobile, and Analytics Studio produces statements, leaderboards and payroll files. The AI capabilities page adds what-if calculators for projecting a payout and AI agents. Integrations include native Salesforce and NetSuite connectors with scheduled or real-time sync, a REST API, and connections to Workday, Snowflake and ADP Workforce Now. Performio is built for mid-market and enterprise compensation teams whose plans involve many roles, currencies and approval steps. Finance teams that need multi-level approvals, audit trails and multi-currency payouts with automated FX conversion are its core users, alongside sales operations teams that own plan changes and rep-facing reporting. It fits companies that run one commission process across regions rather than a single small sales team. It is bought as one platform on a subscription that scales with the number of participants and the capabilities selected, with implementation as a one-time project. Pricing is quoted per customer rather than published. Day to day it takes closed deals and invoices from the CRM and the ERP, applies the plan rules, and puts earnings in front of reps as deals close. Payout runs pass through multi-level approvals before payroll files go out. Controllers and auditors trace every calculation back to its inputs through the audit trail. It draws deal data from Salesforce, ERP data from NetSuite and HR data from Workday or ADP Workforce Now, replacing the spreadsheet that used to join them.
