How you get paid — two ways.
There are exactly two ways money reaches your position. Once you see them, the whole plan clicks. No income is guaranteed — this shows the mechanics, not a promise of earnings.
Entry rewards — from your own directs
POSITION
under your link
When someone joins the program using your link, you receive their entry reward (326 POL at Premium) — directly, and you keep it. You earn this on every direct you ever bring, not just the first two. Two is simply the number that qualifies you.
Upgrade payments — each layer pays you at ONE level
This is the part people ask about. When your team upgrades, each payment travels up the matrix to the position at the matching depth. Each person below you pays you exactly once — at the single level that matches how far below you they sit.
To catch each one, you must be at that level yourself (and qualified). Layer 3's Culmen payment only stops at you if you're at Culmen — otherwise it passes up to the next eligible position. That's why the rule is: stay one level ahead of your team's deepest active layer.
