A Distributor must personally or foster sponsor 6 or more Distributor Groups, each of which qualifies at the maximum Performance Bonus Level in at least six months during the performance year. The Distributor must be a qualified Platinum Distributor.
Bonus of the qualified Diamond Bonus recipient = Diamond Bonus Fund x Total points of a qualified Diamond Bonus recipient / Total points of all qualified Diamond Bonus recipients
Amway will set aside an amount equal to 0.25% of the total BV of all qualified downline from all Diamond Bonus recipients, including their Personally, Internationally and Foster Sponsored Groups that attain the maximum Performance Bonus Level as the Diamond Bonus Fund.
The volume of the Upline of the Foster Sponsored 21% Group, like the Personally Sponsored 21% Group, will be included in the calculation of the Diamond Bonus Fund. The BV of all qualified Diamond Bonus recipients' Internationally Sponsored Groups that attain the maximum Performance Bonus Level is also included in the calculation. However, only the volume of the First Internationally Sponsored Group that attains the maximum Performance Bonus Level will be included.
The method of calculation of Diamond Bonus is the same as that of Emerald Bonus.
Diamond Bonus for the performance year ending August 31 is issued after assessment. The volume of an Internationally Sponsored Group that attains the maximum Performance Bonus Level will be calculated for Diamond Bonus twice; one for the Foster Sponsor and the other for the International Sponsor.
