How we read this statement
Figures are annual and before expenses, for U.S. Brand Partners in 2024.
Average: $651 covers Brand Partners who were active at any time during 2024. "Active" means they purchased products, sponsored another Brand Partner or earned commissions. The rank table also gives averages for all Brand Partners by rank.
Earning nothing: 34% is LifeWave's figure for Brand Partners who earned no compensation because they were not active. The statement also says that 21% of registered and active Brand Partners received a commission payment in at least one month. The share that received no commission at all is therefore higher than 34%; the statement does not give it as one number.
The entry rank (Brand Partner, 94.41% of all Brand Partners) had a median of $0. LifeWave publishes no overall median and no participant count.

"Exectutive" is spelled that way in the original. Months to achieve rank are measured from the date of enrollment.
Method: a median is recorded only when the company publishes one for all participants, and “earning nothing” uses the statement's own definition. Nothing is estimated; empty fields mean the statement does not publish that figure. Details on the methodology page.
