If the Affiliate has 2 children under them then also Affiliate is not going to receive the MLM commission, To complete the chain there should be 3 users under an Affiliate.
Unilevel MLM:-
In the unilevel matrix, you can set the Depth that how many levels can MLM chain have. There can be ‘N’ number of children’s a user can have, but an Affiliate can have only one child under their affiliate chain.
As you can see in the above image one Affiliate can have only one child under them.
So if B, C register using A’s affiliate link then B came under A and C came under B.
If any new user came through using A’s link then it will come under affiliate C.
Unlimited MLM:-
In Unlimited commission, a user can have an unlimited number of users under their affiliate chain, It is totally different from another plan like in Binary plan an affiliate can have a maximum of 2 children and the user will receive a commission, In a forced matrix user are forced to register the number of affiliates enter by admin after that affiliate is going to receive MLM commission, In Unilevel one Affiliate can have a single child under their affiliate chain
But in the Unlimited plan, there is no validation if the admin sets the maximum number of children an affiliate can have as 200 so that does not mean affiliates have to register 200 users under them then they are eligible to receive MLM commission. If the Affiliate has only one child under their MLM chain then also affiliate will receive MLM commission as per the setting done by admin.
As shown in the above Image maximum child is set as 200 and the MLM plan is set as unlimited, according to the setting an affiliate has a maximum of 200 children and the affiliate will receive a commission even if the affiliate has only 1 child under their affiliate chain.
