Advantage Commission Model: 90/90 Split for Growing Brokers

Redrock's Advantage model pays 90% upfront and 90% trail commission — the independent mid-tier model for brokers building consistent settlement volume.

Redrock's Advantage commission model

The Advantage model is Redrock's independent mid-tier: a 90% upfront / 90% trail split built for brokers who are past the starting blocks, writing consistent settled volume, and ready for a model that reflects that. It is an independent model — your brand, your business and your client relationships remain yours.

Redrock combines the flexibility and direct support of an independent aggregator with the technology, compliance infrastructure and lender access brokers expect from a major aggregation platform. Advantage is where that combination tends to matter most: an experienced broker gets a stronger split without stepping down to a thinner platform.

Who it suits

Advantage sits between the entry models and the higher-tier splits, and it is built for brokers at a specific point in their business. It fits well if you are:

  • Past your first year, settling regularly, and ready to step up from an 80/80 entry model without giving up support or infrastructure
  • Moving across from another aggregator with an established client base and trail book, and looking for an operating model with more flexibility and more direct support
  • Running your own brand and business as an independent operator, wanting full ownership of your client relationships with a complete aggregation platform behind you

Your brand stays yours. Your clients stay yours. Your business stays yours. Advantage gives you a stronger commercial foundation to keep building from.

What's included

Advantage brokers get access to Redrock's full aggregation stack:

  • The Redrock Broker Portal — Redrock's own secure, custom-built platform, with forms, templates, practical tools and video guides supporting your day-to-day workflow
  • Search Suite, Redrock's AI Smart Search tool, embedded in the portal via an iframe and queried in natural, human-language questions against Redrock's knowledge base
  • ComplySuite, Redrock's all-in-one NCCP compliance monitoring and reporting platform, used directly by brokers to maintain compliance registers, interact with file auditors and complete quarterly self-reviews. Compliance is not an add-on here; it is foundational to how Redrock operates — see what Redrock checks in a file audit, and why
  • Commission Suite, Redrock's head-office commission system. Brokers do not log into it; what it delivers is accurate, timely and comprehensive monthly RCTIs and commission statements
  • Lodgement and CRM through Salestrekker, the third-party platform Redrock provides access to, with product comparison tools
  • Data and verification subscriptions covering property data, credit file access and bank statement services
  • Access to a broad panel of residential, commercial, asset finance and specialist lenders, plus the spot-and-refer commercial lending program, broadening the solutions you can bring to clients. Brokers receive 14 automatic lender accreditations on joining, with access to a further 55 residential and 27 commercial lenders

Inside the Redrock Broker Portal and Compliance Platform walks through what you work in day to day, and Redrock's Technology Platform: What Brokers Actually Get covers the stack end to end.

What it costs

The investment varies according to the broker's pathway, qualifications, experience and requirements, with detailed pricing provided following consultation — so the honest answer is that it is confirmed in conversation rather than published as a list price. All fees are quoted excluding GST.

What is fixed across every Redrock model: a minimum two-year term, one credit representative included in the monthly fee, and up to three months to complete induction with no monthly fee. Adding a further credit representative carries a one-off charge of 50% of the initial investment, plus the ongoing monthly fee for that representative — the 50% is a single charge at the point you add the representative, not a recurring monthly cost.

The Initial Investment: What Joining Redrock Covers sets out what the initial investment pays for, and What's Included, What's Franchise-Only and What Carries a Fee separates the standard inclusions from the extras.

Conditions to note

  • All fees exclude GST
  • A minimum 2-year term applies, as it does on every Redrock model
  • Commissions on products other than mortgage loans are calculated at 80% of commission received, with how broker commissions and earnings are paid covered in more detail
  • The monthly fee is charged per credit representative, with one included
  • There is no minimum volume requirement on the Advantage model, and no compliance fee
  • New-to-industry brokers have up to 3 months to complete induction with no monthly fee

Where to next

Advantage is a step in a progression, not a ceiling. If your settlement volume keeps building, Prime (95/95) and Maximiser (100% upfront / 95% trail, with a $1,500 per annum ex GST compliance fee and a minimum volume of POA) offer higher splits as your business grows — this guide works through which Redrock commission model fits your stage, and Redrock Commission Models Compared sets them out side by side.

If you are currently with another aggregator and weighing up a move, the switching aggregators FAQ covers how the transfer process works and how your trail book is treated.
