Yes. Wayward allows you to set custom commission rates for specific creators or publishers, in addition to your default rate. This is a great way to incentivize top-performing partners to prioritize your products.

Many brands use this strategy to strengthen relationships with high-value creators, and we highly encourage it as a way to drive more engagement and sales.
