While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

Terrible experience, stay AWAY!

I started with a $1,000 budget, and from day one, they pushed me to deposit more, saying $1K, isn’t enough. They never mentioned their strict no-refund policy.

We spent $350 with zero leads, traffic quality was awful. The same campaigns worked perfectly on other platforms. Once the money was in, the account manager stopped replying. Emails, calls, and WhatsApp messages were ignored.

If you message about adding funds, they reply instantly. Otherwise, silence.
Horrible support, bad traffic, and no transparency, stay away. So many good platforms this is definitely not one of them!

scam company

Unfortunately, it's a scam company.
After I deposited $100 and started campaigns, they didn't activate them for a month, claiming I had to spend $500, which is not true. When I asked for a refund for a month, they told me the transfer had been made, but it hadn't. When I asked them for proof that the transfer had been made, their response was, "We can't send you a transfer reference." This means they're a scam company.
