Click Intensity Review: $25 a pop, $30 ROI Ponzi scheme
There is no information on the Click Intensity website indicating who owns or runs the business.
As at the time of publication, the Click Intensity website only displays a ticker counting down to a March 16th launch.
Further research reveals a “contact us” page on the Click Intensity website providing a “company address” in Bedfordshire, UK.
This address is for the Maxet House Business Centre, in which office space and mailing addresses can be rented.
The Click Intensity website domain (“clickintensity”) lists “Click Intensity” as the owner and was first registered on June 26th, 2009.
The domain registration was recently updated on February 22nd, 2016, which is likely when the current owner(s) acquired it.
Of note is the Delaware, US address listed on the registration, which is obviously different from the UK address provided on the Click Intensity website.
The Deleware address is that of Hardvard Business Services, who on their website claim to have been “forming Delaware companies for more than 30 years”.
As with the UK, it appears Click Intensity exists in Delaware in name only.
A closed Facebook group exists for Click Intensity, with Tara Mish, Ankur Agarwal and Nick Johnson listed as admins.
On his Facebook profile, Nick Johnson credits himself as Click Intensity’s CEO.
Nick Johnson’s Facebook profile was only created a few weeks ago, and appears to exist for the sole purpose of promoting Click Intensity. The photo used to represent Johnson has been cropped and superimposed against a white background.
It is highly likely that Nick Johnson, the purported CEO of Click Intensity, doesn’t exist.
At the time of publication, Alexa currently estimate that 31.5% of traffic to the Click Intensity website originates out of India.
The use of a mailing address in the UK and generic Anglo-Saxon named admin is typically a calling card of Indian scammers. In all likelihood, Click Intensity is probably being run out of India.
As always, if an MLM company is not openly upfront about who is running or owns it, think long and hard about joining and/or handing over any money.
The Click Intensity Product Line
Click Intensity has no retailable products or services, with affiliates only able to market Click Intensity affiliate membership itself.
The Click Intensity Compensation Plan
Click Intensity pay affiliates to complete tasks. The company also solicits $25 investments on the promise of a $30 ROI.
Cash Tasks
Click Intensity claim their affiliates will be able to make money by “completing cash tasks”.
From Time To Time Whether You Are A Free member or paid member, u will get cash tasks which on completion will give you income.
The $ value per cash task varies from task to task.
Paid members will get more cash tasks versus totally free members.
Cash task income appears to have nothing to do with the MLM side of Click Intensity.
Profit Sharing
Click Intensity affiliates invest $25 for “1 profit share in the company”.
Each $25 investment is advertised as paying out a $30 ROI, after which it “expires”.
Referral Commissions
Referral commissions in Click Intensity are paid out on profit sharing investments made by recruited affiliates.
The commissions themselves are paid out via a unilevel compensation structure.
A unilevel compensation structure places an affiliate at the top of a unilevel team, with every personally recruited affiliate placed directly under them (level 1):
If any level 1 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 2 of the original affiliate’s unilevel team.
If any level 2 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 3 and so on and so forth down a theoretical infinite number of levels.
Click Intensity cap payable unilevel levels at seven, with commissions paid out as a percentage of invested funds across each level:
- level 1 (personally recruited affiliates) – 10%
- level 2 – 1%
- levels 3 to 6 – 0.5%
- level 7 – 2%
Note that how many levels a Click Intensity affiliate can earn on is determined by accumulated personal investment as follows:
- invest $25 = earn on level 1
- invest $2500 = earn on levels 1 and 2
- invest $5000 = earn on levels 1 to 3
- invest $10,000 = earn on levels 1 to 4
- invest $25,000 = earn on levels 1 to 5
- invest $50,000 = earn on levels 1 to 6
- invest $100,000 = earn on all available 7 levels
Joining Click Intensity
Affiliate membership with Click Intensity is free, however affiliates must invest at least $25 to participate in the offered MLM opportunity.

The above is a marketing pitch from the Click Intensity website. Notable, it sounds more like a Ponzi pitch than that for a legitimate MLM business opportunity.
That’s because a Ponzi scheme is exactly what Click Intensity is.
Affiliates invest $25 on the promise of a $30 ROI, which itself is paid out of newly invested funds.
As Click Intensity themselves explain;
The profit share values will vary based on the total gross within the system.
Total gross = affiliate investment, with those funds used to pay out ROIs making Click Intensity a Ponzi scheme.
This is no fixed timeline for the profit share to hit $30 on each silver coin pack.
It’s a variable component and totally depends on company’s profits.
No new affiliate investment = no ROIs.
The “free tasks” are neither here nor there, as they have no bearing on the MLM side of the business. Likely the tasks will just be busy-body work sourced from third-party affiliate network, paying peanuts for clicks or some such.
As with all such schemes, once new affiliate investment dries up Click Intensity will find itself unable to meet its advertised ROI obligations.
When that happens the anonymous Click Intensity admin(s) do a runner, leaving the majority of investors with a loss.
I can’t figure out where you got all your information, as a member of Click Intensity, most of what you say does not exist in the program. It seems you have made up some things to bolster your claims.
We shall see if a PONZI is at hand. Never invest money you are not willing to lose. It’s a gamble, just like the stock market.
They are just one big fraud, some win and a lot lose. But that is tolerated daily.
I got it from Click Intensity. You invest $25 and they pay you a $30 ROI out of subsequently recruited funds.
Ohhhh right. You mean pseudo-compliance. I don’t deal with that sort of garbage, this is real talk.
Don’t need to, it’s right there in the business model.
Ponzi schemes have nothing to do with gambling or the stock market. Click Intensity is investment fraud.
I agree with the writer. It does seem like a PONZI, but an extremely elaborate one. They spent a lot of time on those “training” videos.
It is a very nice concept though. But they need a better source other than relying 100% on new recruits.

One day I hope you will get it right Oz, what traffic exchanges are about or MLM in general.
Total gross is total advertising revenue, not just adpacks. All real traffic exchanges work like that, and while not all created equal you always seem to deem the great ones scams.
Affiliates don’t invest, they purchase adpacks and/or advertising.
Setting qualification guidelines to get paid out on multiple generations is common and fair practise too. Plus purchasing advertising is not an investment, but a business expense.
(Ozedit: Offtopic derail attempts removed)
There is little to no non-adpack advertising taking place on adcredit Ponzi sites. Affiliate investment is the primary source of revenue.
Purchases don’t pay a ROI, investments do.
AdSurfDaily’s Andy Bowdoin would like a word… from his jail cell. He thought ad-credit Ponzi schemes were legit too.
Best of luck with the scamming.
One of these days I hope you’ll understand that real traffic exchanges rarely involve money, and real internet advertising don’t promise ROI. Internet advertising is an EXPENSE.

You are a perfect example of Dunning-Kruger effect: you think you know everything when you know nothing.
ClickIntensity is fraud. Not Pay.
Hmmm. I been looking at this and there is definitely a case for potential fraud (not wanting to point fingers just yet). But since Andy Bowdoin, formerly of AdSurfDaily.com, was mentioned earlier, I came across this article of how he was convicted…
(Source: stopfraud.gov/iso/opa/stopfraud/DC-120829.html)
So if Click Intensity is running the same business model as this, with no sales generated from customers outside its pyramid scheme, then this is indeed fraudulent.
BEST SITE REVIEW OF CLICK INTENSITY EVER!!! Thanks Admin!
All you’ve written are correct I enroll as member to know more of their process inside cuz I’m gonna do a whole page review as a writer. I throw a little as paid member to see how sharing works.
Members are blinded by the 20% ROI in 5months coming from new paying members. Company is not really earning from advertiser, it’s rolling over from new member paying the old member.
All advertisement are created by CI, just to tell there is task to do. So worried of those who puts in big cash without the true knowledge.
The system is too comic from training videos to withdrawing money. I also investigated the company here in Delaware. Registration are Bogus.
These presentors, CEO, admins, trainers, etc will disappear in the cloud without members knowing… I have the name and the phone number of the CI registrant. He is not Nick Johnson. Bwahahaha.
If you put huge investment you must go out soon! But the trick is you can’t withdraw your investment now, until you reach the 5months.
That’s when you gathered all your investment and if there are still people who will get in?????
@ The Honest Me….
Your name is comic as your post is full smell of BS and lack of real investigation.
20% in 5 months? But the trick is you can’t withdraw your investment now, until you reach the 5months?
Where you get your information from? I am a member and i have been withdrawing since only 50 days and withdrawing regularly
20% is not huge returns and unlike other TE’s Click Intensitys revenue share does indeed fluctuate with incoming revenue.
There are more and more people still registering but because the revenue does not come solely from the purchase of ad packs, the revenue share has gone down slightly to a reasonable rate for a new company. This is fine and those who are involved are all earning and withdrawing.
Do you think anyonw would be so stupid enough to join a business that takes 5 months to pay out?
Your crazy and wrong.
The person behind this I should Ankur Agarwal. Who has made himself a very rich man thanks to click intensity.
Avoid anything the man is associated with. Coinmia, Coiin. .Tara mish (the communications advisor) claims she was scammed as well. And never met Nick Johnson but did meet Ankur.
Didn’t start to tell people the truth till they stopped paying her! Stay away from her also goes by Tara Gilbert.
Well, here’s the latest and greatest update from Nick Johnson, the admin of CI (also note that previously payouts were suspended for six months due to a (cough, cough) hacker or some such nonsense with funds frozen in payment processor), about their new crypto-currency and I quote:
And there you have it. Everyone is CI will be millionaires in no time.
I totally agree with the writer, As a member of CI, I was told everything that is written. The down fall of CI started in exactly the same way as another scheme under investigation Traffic Monsoon.
Firstly came the verification of accounts, followed by the impounding of funds by payza, then payments were put as pending…
the only difference so far between CI and TM is that the same guy Nick Johnson is now busy with the pre launch of another scheme AdsCash…
He is asking members from CI to put in more of their hard earned cash to make the scheme a success… He hasn’t yet paid back the funds from CI to those who have lost.
I just wish I had trusted my own instinct about these schemes and stayed away from them… The only people that benefit at all from them are the top marketeers… whose names crop up time and time again on these money grabbing schemes..
