Income Disclosure Statement

Last updated: August 31, 2026

Most EMPYRE participants earn little or no income.

EMPYRE does not yet have sufficient production history to publish a statistically meaningful earnings distribution. The zero-dollar figures below are not an earnings projection or guarantee. Future results will vary based on effort, skill, market conditions, expenses, and other factors. Most people who join direct selling opportunities earn little or no income.

1. Purpose of This Disclosure

This Income Disclosure Statement is provided in accordance with Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidance on income claims for direct selling and multi-level marketing (MLM) businesses. It is designed to state clearly that verified historical earnings data is not yet sufficient for EMPYRE to make a typical-income representation.

EMPYRE is a direct selling platform that provides Independent Business Owners with a cannabis-focused online storefront, training academy, and hybrid matrix compensation structure. IBOs earn commissions on retail sales and may earn team volume bonuses based on their downline's sales activity.

2. Earnings by Rank

The following table reports no substantiated annualized earnings by rank because the platform does not yet have a sufficient production reporting period. Future published figures, if available, will cover qualified direct-retail commissions and will exclude business expenses (marketing, travel, internet, phone, etc.), which IBOs pay from their own funds.

Rank% of IBOsAvg. Annual GrossMedian Annual GrossHours/Week (Avg.)
Associate—$0$0—
Builder—$0$0—
Director—$0$0—
Ambassador—$0$0—
Crown—$0$0—
Legend—$0$0—

Figures shown as "$0" indicate insufficient data, not a promise of zero or positive earnings. This table will be updated only when a verified, substantiated reporting population is available.

3. Key Findings

  • •No typical, average, median, or rank-based income can yet be substantiated from EMPYRE production history.
  • •The current production plan pays qualified direct-retail commissions; team-volume bonuses are not active.
  • •Gross income is not net income. IBOs are responsible for their own business expenses, taxes, and compliance costs.
  • •Earnings require ongoing effort, customer acquisition, and product sales. Passive or residual income is not guaranteed.

4. Definitions

Gross Income: Total commissions and bonuses earned before business expenses, taxes, or deductions.

Net Income: Gross income minus business expenses. EMPYRE does not track IBO business expenses; net income will be lower than gross income shown here.

Personal Volume (PV): The dollar value of products sold through an IBO's personal storefront.

Group Volume (GV): The combined personal volume of an IBO and their entire downline.

Active IBO: An IBO who has made at least one qualifying retail sale in the current period.

5. FTC Compliance Statement

This Income Disclosure Statement is provided to comply with the FTC's guidance on income claims for direct selling businesses, as set forth in the FTC's Business Guidance Concerning Multi-Level Marketing and the FTC Act. EMPYRE requires all IBOs to reference this disclosure when making any income claim or earnings representation.

IBOs must not make any income claim that is not substantiated by this disclosure. Any income representation must include a clear and conspicuous reference to this document and must not imply that earnings are typical or guaranteed.
