Understanding eXp Revenue Share: Building Passive Income in Real Estate
By Bean Group Team

One of eXp Realty's most compelling value propositions is revenue share—a program that allows agents to build passive income by attracting other productive agents to the company. Understanding how it works is key to maximizing this opportunity.
What Is Revenue Share?
eXp pays agents a percentage of the gross commission income (company dollar) generated by agents they directly or indirectly sponsor—up to 7 levels deep.
How Revenue Share Works
When an agent you sponsor (or an agent they sponsor) pays their company dollar contribution, you receive a percentage:
Real Numbers: What Revenue Share Can Look Like
Let's look at a realistic example. Assume each agent pays the full $16,000 cap to eXp:
| Tier | Agents | Rate | Annual Revenue Share |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tier 1 | 5 agents | 3.5% | $2,800 |
| Tier 2 | 15 agents | 4.0% | $9,600 |
| Tier 3 | 30 agents | 2.5% | $12,000 |
| Tier 4-7 | 50+ agents | 0.5-1.5% | $8,000+ |
| Total Annual Revenue Share | $32,400+ | ||
*This example assumes full cap agents. Many agents cap faster or slower, affecting actual payouts.
Important Considerations
Revenue share is based on company dollar paid—agents who don't cap generate less revenue share
5 productive agents generate more revenue share than 20 struggling agents
Agents on reduced caps (like Bean Group's $4K cap) contribute less company dollar to the pool
Revenue share is a marathon, not a sprint—it compounds over years, not months
