Bonus statements will be distributed in the four weeks following the end of each commission statement distribution period.

Progression commission statements will be distributed upon confirmation of student enrolment and receipt of commission from partner universities.

How is my commission calculated?
  • Commission is calculated on a termly basis as a percentage of net tuition fees invoiced and paid in full, less any prior period overpayments (due to withdrawals etc.). Other amounts invoiced for accommodation, airport transfers, etc are not commissionable.
  • No commission will be paid before the student has arrived at the centre and enrolled on their course.
  • If tuition fees are received after the cut-off date for calculation of commission (generally a week before the beginning of the statement distribution period) then the commission due would be included in the following term’s statement.
  • If a student pays the full year’s fees in advance, commission due will also be paid in advance.
  • EUR tuition fees will be converted to GBP for the purposes of remuneration payments.
  • CEG has introduced the CEG Commission Portal, developed to streamline the processing of agent remuneration statements and improve cybersecurity by minimising the exchange of sensitive data via email. You will be able to view, query and approve your statements via the portal, prompted by automated email notifications at key stages in the process. A comprehensive User Guide is attached to the initial email notification, including details of the registration process.
  • If you experience any difficulty with registration or accessing your statements, please request assistance from Agent Support via email:agentsupport@ceg-uk.com
  • Once you have viewed your statement and checked that the remuneration amount and bank details are correct, you should approve it in the portal.
  • It is important that any queries regarding the detail of your statement are raised with Finance via the portal, including as much information as possible (eg student number, full name, date of birth, centre, course, etc)
  • If you wish to change your bank account details, a Bank Account Authorisation Form should be requested from Agent Support via email – agentsupport@ceg-uk.com
  • The cut-off for payment of approved statements is 5.00pm Hong Kong Time every Wednesday, for value the following Tuesday (subject to public holidays and banking procedures). Please note that the bank transfer can then take up to 10 days to reach your account.
  • No, this is unnecessary.
  • General queries (ie not statement-specific) should be raised with Finance via email – commission@ceg-uk.com
  • Your commission rate will be reviewed and agreed annually with your CEG representative.
  • Remuneration for all branches in a group will be paid to the head office (ie the contracting entity). If a branch office is to receive its own remuneration, this will require head office approval and a separate contract with CEG.
