Case Study: Showpad achieves faster, more accurate commission processing with CaptivateIQ

Showpad takes an innovative approach to commissions, rolling out strategic plan updates in just 2 days

Showpad, a global leader in revenue enablement technology, needed a better way to manage increasingly complex sales commissions. Before CaptivateIQ, the finance team spent nearly the entire month calculating payouts in Google Sheets and manually sending PDF statements to 100+ reps, which created bottlenecks, limited agility, and increased the risk of errors.

With CaptivateIQ’s commission management platform, Showpad automated payout processing, improved accuracy, and gained the flexibility to adapt comp plans much faster. The time to process commissions dropped from one month to 12 days, a 60% reduction, new commission plans went from five to six months to just two days, and error rates fell from about 5% to few or none.
