My Review About Probux.com
I registered on the site probux.com and I'am quite happy with the service.
First, the site is new and beautiful. The design is very professional, flashy and pleasant to navigate.
Probux.com is a registered company. Many PTC are not registered businesses and I already lost some money on them. Being a registered company means that the name of this people are bound with the business, with less chance of being just another PTC that will close doors in six months.
Let's get to my review.
- Personal Experience
- Forum
Before I sign in, I entered the forum to see what people were saying. I saw several forums in different languages, to offer help to members who do not speak English.
One section that I found quite important before I register, was part of the payment proofs. There I could see payments ranging from $ 5.00 to over $ 100. I didn't complaints that payments were not instant as well. I have seen on other sites.
Also the part of feature requests. In this part, members make requests for features they would like to see working. The most requested are implemented by the probux team. This was the case for "add funds to rental balance from main balance". This feature did not exist when the site was released in August, but after several requests in the forum, the probux team implemented.
The forum has the help of some moderators, which are selected by showing activity in the forum and helping other members with their questions.
The online chat is also very helpful. There you can speak with a support staff member to solve your questions. I went there and talked briefly with Mark, who attended me well and was very helpful answering my questions. Positive point to probux site because only a few sites offer this type of service. That gave me a confidence that they will be there for when I need some help or have some problem.
We can also do the calculation of our earnings using the calculator we found on the FAQs page. You can get an idea of return per day / month / year of investment.
- Words by Admin
The part of the forum "News about Probux", Admin posts about what's new in the system. That was the part that really made me feel comfortable to invest. The Admin shows transparency with his words when he talks about the features of the system and especially when Admin talks about probux as a company.
- Specifications
- Viewing ads
At this moment there is 16 advertisements availables to click. This made me this day $0.088 as a Standard Member. It's a considerably amount for Standard Members.
- Direct Referrals
Each member entering under my link, turns a Direct Referral of mine. Whenever a Direct Referral clicks to make money, I get credited too by their clicks. For Standard members, the limit is a hundred. Golden Members can have up to tow hundred and Ultimate Members can have an unlimited number of Direct Referrals. This is a good option for those who spread their banners and get a lot of Direct Referrals. And for every member who complete the registration, the Golden and Ultimate Members earn a commission of $2 per Direct Referral. A good extra money.
- Rented Referrals
I still did not rented any referrals. It's my next step. But from what I've seen on the forum, AVG clicks of Rented Referrals has left the users happy with the result. As a Standard Member, can I rent up to 200. Hopefully I will rent soon to update this post.
- Minimum cashout
The minimum cashout is $5.00. I thought a little high to try outand see if it really would be worth investing in Probux, but I saw several payment proofs in the forum, then I have proof that this site is really paying it's users.
- Surveys and Tasks
I missed this feature. Other competitors have other ways to make money. Maybe they implement something like this in the future. Already made my request in the forum.
- Bottom line
Probux is really worth checking out. Not just because it's beautiful design, but it is a registered company and be paying for the users. The confidence that the site has passed to users, despite being a new site, is breathtaking. Reading the words of the Admin, I could be sure that the probux team are doing the right thing to stay online for a long time.

There is a website with false rumors against Probux, though administrators have denied all farces.
Follow their response below;
The internet is a place where you can find many different viewpoints, and this makes it an magnificent place and full of information. However, not all information found on web are true or reliable.
The site containing this information, is based exclusively in a personal opinion, although the information present are based on rumors and false speculations.
Regarding the arguments presented:
Script - GeN3 heavily modified script, based in only one page.
└ Incorrect information
We took months to complete the script that we are using. All lines of code and html were made entirely by our team.
ProBux would be impracticable and never be stable if a Gen3 script was running due to the large numbers of simultaneous access to the site.
We use class, cronjobs, cache, gzip compression, indexes directly to the database, optimizations, etc. Things that a basic script as the GEN3 does not have, and it is not capable to support a system of high traffic, causing the system remains slow most of the time.
You can go and look at the ProBux's source code for any line similar or equal to the script mentioned and you will not find.
Judging by the similarity of a page, it would be foolish and childish to make a comparative statement like this.
The PTC systems follows a pattern, as well as search engines, social networks, emails, etc.
As you can see, even these big search engines, social networks and email providers have similarities in their pages but that does not mean that their systems are all the same.
That would be an argument totally invalid and absurd. It would be like saying, BING is Google, Gmail is Hotmail and AMAZON is Ebay.
The page has presented similarity, indeed, is identical to the NeoBux. A system in which we have great respect.
It would be another abusive comparison saying that by having a similar page of NeoBux, we are part of the same group.
The country is the same as other PTC sites.
└ Incorrect information
This is a comparison that has no logic, and gets to be funny if you think about it.
The country in question has about 190 million people and has the 5th largest population in the world.
If someone from that country, making a website in the same business segment, must necessarily be part of the same group of people?
Honestly, this has no logic.
That would be like saying: So if someone open a social networking site in the United States, or it is part of Facebook or Twitter?
PayPal account and their creation date.
└ Incorrect information
Our company had to make an account especially for transactions - ProBux, this account was created to move large volumes of transactions and for that you need a business account.
Is there a difference between a personal account and a business account in payment processor in question, as to use resources such as IPN and API (responsible for processing transactions and send instantly payments), you should have a specific account for this purpose.
And so, our company had to create this account and not use a personal account.
Again, another invalid and meaningless argument.
Registered Company (most likely bogus)
└ Incorrect information
ProBux is an authentic company, and can be accessed through the Trustwave's site (company that makes authenticity checks and services SSL).
To get the seal of "IDENTITY" by TrustWave is necessary to provide corporate documents, and only after they are analyzed, the authentication is provided.
The seal of authentication can be confirmed directly by Trustwave's site: https://sealserver.trustwave.com/cert.php?customerId=&size=105x54&style=normal&baseURL=www.probux.com
Again, another false argument that has no any veracity.
Fixed fake ads
└ Incorrect information
We have affiliate relationships with other advertisers websites, among them directly: EmpireMoney.com
The ads in which it makes reference(eToro, BinaryOptions, ect) are part of this affiliate network.
As you can see, all of our links make reference to our affiliate account.
eToro: http://links.empiremoney.com/click.php?af=9136&pd=1&ln=1&pf=8362
BinaryOptions: http://www.thebinaryoptions.com/?af=9136&pf=8362&emp=1
Again, another invalid and meaningless argument.
We believe that every person has the right to have your opinion, and respect even if it is wrong.
If there remains any doubt, just check our hard work - Latest News and our credibility - Payment Proofs.
We'll continue demonstrating through our actions and not just words that we are here to do serious work, for this reason we have invested so much time and dedication to the system.
ProBux is Legit , register under my referral link.
Thanksss

Dear users,
Our team worked during the last weeks to bring new features for our members.
Among the improvements made to our system:
Modified and restructured the design of the "My Account" page, in order to become more intuitive and easy to use.
We will continue to optimize other pages, always seeking to facilitate and improve the experience of our users.
We have enabled the option to transfer funds. from your Main Balance to Rental balance.
Now members can rent referrals using the Main Balance by simply transferring it to Rental Balance.
We've added a new layer of protection to the system, named "Security Check".
In order to avoid robots attacks, automated activities like robot will be analyzed by the system, and if necessary, will be asked for a captcha to proceed.
This measure will strengthen the security of our system, and thus prevent fraud.
We reviewed our business plan, and in order to maintain consistency, we are readjusting the limits 'Maximum Amount of Direct Referrals' for the Golden members to 200.
Note: This adjustment is only for the new Golden purchase from now on, those who had already purchased the Golden before, will not be affected.
Moderators;
As announced in the previous news, we are selecting some active members who help others and participate in the forum.
We will keep our eyes on the active members in the forum, and we will contact you in the coming days.
Now you can invite your friends to join and earn with you. “Like Us” on Facebook and “Follow Us” on Twitter.
We will be updating the latest news and exclusive promotions there.
Enjoy and have an excellent week.
Thank you,
ProBux.
