For husband & wife teams
Husband and wife real estate teams: Two agents.
One cap.
Updated
Married agents can share one cap at AXEN Realty. Your spouse gets everything a full agent gets for $50 a month. And you each get your own revenue share line.
$0 to sign up. Nothing is charged until your license is active with AXEN.
01How it works
One business. Charged like two.
Most brokerages charge each of you your own split and cap. Here, you join as one partnership.
The same 20 sales on Pro
- Your closing
- Your spouse's
- $500 file fee
- $0 after the cap
You close 12, your spouse closes 8. One cap keeps $4,000 more with you.
Two caps vs. oneWhy two caps cost a couple more.
- Two caps to hit. Each of you has to fill your own cap before either of you keeps 100%.
- Two sets of fees. Every fee you pay, your spouse pays too. You pay double for one team.
- The quiet spouse pays the most. The one who closes less may never cap, so their split never stops.
- At AXEN: one cap. Every closing either of you does counts. Then $0 file fees for the rest of your cap year. The $295 admin fee stays.
- $50 a month for your spouse. The platform fee, or $500 a year. No second cap, no second split.
At AXEN there is no split at all. See how AXEN pay plans work.
02What you pay
What does a couple pay? The whole bill for both of you.
No split to work out, so this is all of it. You close 12 sales on Pro, your spouse closes 8.

| On Pro, one year | Two agents, two caps | Couple, one cap |
|---|---|---|
| File fees | $10,000$6,000 + $4,000 | $6,000one cap, then $0 |
| $295 admin fee | $5,900 | $5,900$295 a closing, whoever closes it |
| Platform fee | $1,200 | $1,200$50 a month each |
| Total to AXEN | $17,100 | $13,100 |
At a $9,000 average, that is $180,000 of commission between you. On one cap, 92.7% of it stays with you.
Small deals, leases and referralsAll of it counts toward your one shared cap.
- Under $2,500 of commission, a file costs 10% of it instead of the plan fee.
- Leases, rentals and referrals cost 10%, max $500 ($1,000 on Elite), plus a $50 admin fee that goes to the Deal Desk coordinator.
- The $295 admin fee: most of it pays your Deal Desk coordinator and state broker. Many agents pass it to the client.
- On Pro, the cap takes about 12 full-price closings between the two of you.
- Your cap year runs from the lead partner's AXEN anniversary.
Every fee is on the pay plans page. This shows fees only, not a promise of what you will earn.

You share a cap, not a seat. Each of you has your own spot, paid on the agents you bring in.
- Level 1
- Level 2

- Level 5
How it paysFive levels deep, on your own line.
- Agents you bring in can sit under either of you.
- Each of you is paid five levels deep on your own line.
- $100 a level for each closing by an agent on Pro. $200 on Elite. The same on all five levels, on your line and your spouse's.
- Paid while that agent still pays a file fee. It stops once they cap.
- No recruiting quota to unlock a level.

06Straight answers
Questions couples ask
Can a husband and wife share one cap at AXEN Realty?
Yes. You join as a partnership, and both of your closings count toward one cap: $6,000 a year on Pro or $12,000 on Elite. Once you hit it together, your file fees are $0 for the rest of the year.
What does the second spouse pay?
$50 a month for the platform (or $500 a year). That is the only extra cost of adding your spouse. The $295 admin fee is per closing, not per person, so a closing costs the same no matter which of you closes it.
Does my spouse get the same tools and support as me?
Yes. Your spouse is a full AXEN agent: their own login, CRM, website, AXEN email, a Deal Desk coordinator on every file, a state broker, AXEN University and live support. Nothing is held back.
Do we each get our own revenue share?
Yes. You each have your own spot in revenue share. Agents you bring in can sit under either of you, and each of you is paid five levels deep on your own line: $100 a level for each closing by an agent on Pro, $200 on Elite. It is paid while that agent still pays a file fee, and stops once they cap. It is not a promise of income.
Do we both need a real estate license?
Yes. You are both licensed agents, and you both hang your license with AXEN in your state.
Which anniversary does our shared cap follow?
One of you is the lead partner, and your shared cap year runs from the lead partner's AXEN anniversary.
Do we both have to be on the same plan?
Yes. You pick one plan together — Pro or Elite — because you share one cap.
What if one of us sells a lot more than the other?
That is the point. The cap is shared, so the busier spouse fills it and the other spouse rides along for $50 a month.
Do leases, referrals and small deals count toward our cap?
Yes. A sale under $2,500 of commission costs 10% of the commission instead of the plan fee, plus the $295 admin fee. Leases, rentals and referrals cost 10%, max $500 on Pro or $1,000 on Elite, plus a $50 admin fee instead of the $295. All of it counts toward your one shared cap.
We are on Elite and paid toward a cap at our old brokerage. Do we get credit?
Yes. The Elite reverse sign-on credits what you already paid toward your old cap this year. On a shared cap it is one credit for the household — the larger of yours.
How do we sign up as a couple?
You each sign up for your own account. It takes a few minutes each. One of you ticks “I’m joining with my spouse” on the join form and adds your spouse’s name. The Join together button on this page ticks it for you. We won’t contact your spouse. Once you have both joined, our team links your two accounts into one partnership with one cap. Missed the box? Just tell us on your call.
