    I started with Neobux mid 2013 and invested about $250 (all from earnings from other sites). I have an Ultimate membership (paid until September and the Gold element will be paid in points this year as I have passed the 30000) and I have now 3795 RR. I renew 15 to 20 of them each day to spread the cost, and always for 240 days.

    Since the day I signed up I have earned $13,626 and at first I reinvested everything. I have now started cashing out at the end of each month and I have received $2,630 in 2014. It works out at just under 20% but it takes very little work as most of it comes from my RRs.

    I hope this helps :)

    I started the same time as you then but haven't invested anything, makes a good comparison. I was initially renting lots of referrals but then got stuck for quite a few months having to extend them and not being able to risk buying more.

    I would say recycling all your referrals would be a nightmare, but I guess as you are an ultimate member you don't really need to worry about that. Ultimate is a lot of money though!

    I agree, it is but it's worth it. As you said, I save a lot in recycling although I still recycle some myself, it also gives you 15 fixed ads a day (all the normally 1c ads are 2c), 24c bonus instead of 12 on tasks, and you don't have to click every day to get your RR commission. The amount I cashed out was after paying for the Ultimate membership.

    Thanks map66 for posting that, but I meant more specifically where do I go on the site to convert the points to be used to rent referrals etc? Sorry for not being more specific.

    Neobux is definately a slow burn route its not a get rich quick scheme and its a year at least before any serious return will be made i'm currently dabbling with it i've done as apple crumble did and invested money that i've earned from the site and other sites in december so its quite abit as i earn a decent amount from all the sites. I can see potential in it and am using all money from neobux to fund it.

    my other earnings i'm keeping seperate. my only worry is neobux suddenly disppearing but its lasted 7 years already even through the banking crisis so i'd hope its business plan is stable in the long term i'm sure it is.
  • Hello everybody. Thought I'd just pop my head above the parapet and add a little more fuel to the Neobux (slowly-burning) fire, since we seem to be on that topic at present.

    I won't drench this post in stats. There are plenty of Neobux forums for that.

    I've been a member for 16 months now, and am aiming for 6000 or so referrals by early summer. This should give me a pretty stable passive income of around £1500 per year. External investment at this juncture (from another site and in-house mini jobs earnings) I forecast will have been approx $5000. We're therefore looking at roughly 2 years for 100% ROI once the account expansion has stopped.

    So, all told, 3.5 - 4 years unpaid effort for an eventual pure profit of £1500 per annum.

    I suppose you've just got to weigh up the risks vs rewards and decide whether or not you fancy the trek.

    Thanks for all the helpful posts and tips on here :)

    How many referrals did you have when you got ultimate?

    I'm going on holiday for a week in feb and am considering how to not lose my referral earnings. Don't really want to take my laptop, but you are not allowed to use tablets. Guess I could teach my brother to do it lol.

    Hi :)

    Once you have referrals you can use your points to extend etc. You go to the rented referral page and at the right hand side of each referral there is a tick box. If you tick the box, you will be shown options e.g. 133 points to extend a referral for 15 days or 93 points to recycle one.

    At the moment I cannot check how to buy referrals as that box is greyed out on my screen (you can only rent once every week). If you click the green referrals button on the home page, though, you will be able to explore that and see what is on offer.

    There is a very good link on the NeoBux forum that will help you too, I will have a look tonight when I get home and PM it to you :)

    Thanks again for using my link on the referrals page.

    There is other options other than ultimate package which is 890 dollars sapphire is 290 dollars and has a 7 day vacation mode and other benefits. i'm going to see how my account plays out over the next 6 months and see what income i can make during that time and extend more during promotion dates if possible.
