Commissioning is a payment system which can be found in many of today’s market niches. In shareholding, the commission represents a charge which is payable by the investor (the person who buys shares) to the broker (the professional who is involved in trading, selling these shares). The amount of the commission payable directly depends on such factors as the number of shares, and the price of these.

For example, if there is a 10% commission charged per share, and the cost of one share is $100, then the broker will charge $10 as a commission fee.
