Executive Summary

Salesforce Spiff is an enterprise incentive compensation management (ICM) platform designed to automate commission calculations, streamline compensation plan management, and provide real-time visibility into rep earnings. Acquired and integrated natively into Salesforce Sales Cloud, Spiff eliminates spreadsheet errors and disputed statements by connecting CRM deal closures directly to commission logic. With Spiff, compensation administrators can build complex multi-tiered commission rules, accelerators, splits, and quotas without relying on custom code.
