TranzactCard acknowledges prelaunch is a “mess”
With TranzactCard shaping up to be another pile of broken promises from Richard Smith, the company has trotted out Peter Rancie for a July 3rd Corporate Update.
While TranzactCard’s update does contain some information (more promises), Rancie takes up a good deal of the real-estate babbling on about a “war against inertia”.
It’s now obvious that when BehindMLM reviewed TranzactCard last month, we were reviewing a concept. None of what is promised actually yet exists.
Well, except the part where you can pay fees to sign up as an affiliate and get paid to recruit. The pyramid scheme part.
TranzactCard’s July 3rd Corporate Update is an attempt to address that, but affiliates are instead presented with disturbing indoctrination-style rhetoric.
We are at war! It’s a war that we – you, me, us – must win.
War is messy. How dramatic you say. No, it’s not a war fought with guns or tanks or planes and missiles. But in some ways, it’s even more important than that.
It’s a war against inertia, a war against doubts and fears, a war against poverty, a war against yours, our, other people’s earlier failures, a war against the attrition of the US community banking system, against the erosion of the buying power and savings capacity of the average American family, against the erosion of the Great American Dream.
TranzactCard is not the whole answer to anything, of course.
The grand experiment of democracy embodied in the United States of America, with its importance to the world at large, circumscribes much more than TranzactCard.
But we are part of it. The tides of time and history have brought us to here and now.
Shall we fight the good fight, or shall we let the moment pass because of inertia or dissatisfaction, or lack of vision?
We – you – are part of the war against inertia, doubt, and disintegration, against the devaluing of the wellbeing of individuals and families.
We’re not all of it, we are part of it.
If you came only for yourself, if you came only for what you can get in the short term, you came for the wrong reason. You might not make it through the mess, through the war.
If you came to help build something that can last for generations and make a tangible difference for millions of American families, then hold on. This is all bigger and more important than you had previously imagined.
Mate, TranzactCard is an MLM company. Take a breath, calm your tits and settle down.
As it stands, TranzactCard has launched without a product, without anything to purchase and with a “placeholder” platform.
Does the TranzactCard Banking Platform look like and function like it will at launch?
No, the current format is a placeholder.
Does the Z-Club E-Commerce Platform look like and function like it will at launch?
No. The current experience using the old tech platform is now simply a laboratory, delivering a range of beta tests of products, Z-Bucks, shipping, handling purchasing experiences, product experiences, etc.
Will the current back office experience be similar (to) the post launch back office experience?
No, please take a look at the DBO back office currently being built.
And the elephant in the room; why collect fees from people if what TranzactCard is pitching doesn’t actually exist?
If TranzactCard wasn’t ready, why did you enter the pre-launch phase?
We were ready for the pre-launch phase. (Ozedit: obviously)
What we weren’t ready for was hundreds and perhaps thousands of Digital Branch Offices being established in a frenzy, people joining with little or no education about the objectives of TranzactCard, little or no awareness of available back office resources, and a plethora of similar, very basic questions being repeated over and over.
Ah yes. It’s your fault for signing up, realizing most of what you were pitched on either doesn’t work or is missing entirely, and daring to ask questions.
Right now TranzactCard is looking an awful lot like Richard Smith’s last launch failure, R Network. That’s perhaps not surprising, as TranzactCard is basically a continuation of what Smith started with R Network.
The problem is R Network never amounted to anything other than a bunch of marketing promises that went nowhere. People lost money buying into Smith’s promises though – that part was very much real.
What perhaps differentiates TranzactCard from R Network is Smith’s self-imposed launch deadline.
Why did TranzactCard change the dates for the launch event, and will the dates change again?
No, the dates are final, they will not change.
There were several competing factors that had to be taken into account. The date range for TranzactCard to be ready to launch version 1.0 in 2023 rather than 2024 had a narrow window in November only.
So uh, there it is. November 12th to 14th or bust.
To be clear: I’m not saying Smith won’t deliver TranzactCard’s launch and everything affiliates are being promised on November 12th.
All I can do is point to similarities in the past and draw comparisons. Valid comparisons, seeing as the same people are involved.
November is roughly four months away, which isn’t a lot of time to wait. If TranzactCard has piqued your interest I’d probably wait till November before signing on.
For those that can only see problems, the refund option is still available.
Further, TranzactCard is willing to buy a number of founder DBO position based on hardship or other mitigating circumstances for $1000 each, thus delivering a 200% ROI for those hardship cases.
Rules and guidelines for the qualified buyback offer will be forthcoming.
If you were gullible enough to fall for handing over $500 for TranzactCard marketing promises, apparently it’s not too late to get a refund.
Looking forward, Smith has said it himself; “The dates are final and they will not change”.
If TranzactCard doesn’t launch with everything that’s been marketed thus far on November 12th, 2023, it’ll officially be R Network’s broken promises 2.0.
Personally I had some questions about TranzactCard’s Power Save Account. Should it actually launch in November, I’d be keen to explore further and provide a more definitive answer on potential securities fraud.
Tick tock.
Told at least ten of these idiots that offered this to me, just like I did with that silly Tucan penny auction, it aint gonna happen.
vaporware for sure oz, with the intent on selling the pyramid grift until, well, till they can’t sell anymore.
the crazy thing is it’s the same group of people all scurrying over fomo to see who will be on top without doing any intelligent research.
If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.
Well Oz hopefully this article will be the beginning of the end of countless people saved before they part with their funds because they did some research first and found this article,
another feather to the cap, kudos…

I wonder how Lisa Torres will slime out of this one without apologizing to people that paid $500.
Of note, it was promised that commissions on card swipes were to begin on July 1st. It would be interesting to know if that came to pass.
To answer my own question swipe commissions did just get paid:
To earn $25/month in swipe commissions a Tranzactcard affiliate would need about $16,600/month in downline swipe volume.
And unless they’re participating in a pyramid scheme, downline swipe volume of $99,600 just to break even on the $150 affiliate fee.
See how everything changes with this “opportunity”! Now you have to earn $25 in commissions to be paid out! Just another way for them to hold onto peoples money! And I bet MOST people earned the one penny!!!
One question I put before the guy who asked me to join was: Where is the zbucks money coming from?
For example, he said that if saved up 5000 z bucks, he could take a cruise worth $5000 or get $5000 in products. So I asked him WHERE is the $5000 in cash coming from to pay for that cruise? Where is $5000 worth of products coming from?
Right now they are using DBO $500 entrance fee to pay for other peoples purchases, but eventually that money will run out.
Am I seeing this correctly or am I blinded in some way.
I believe the ruse is that collected fees will cover the Z-buck spend. I don’t see how that’s feasible.
Add to this that manager positions and above come with recruitment based bonuses completely divorced from downline swipe commissions.
So fees collected from digital branch victims are at least in part, already allocated.
I am ready to purchase the $495 to be a DBO. After reading this I am on hold. Why, I have been looking at every you tube video regarding TRANZACTCARD before I join.
OK, the last video i looked at was the PROVO, UT Conference with all these DBO Manager’s, Vice President and Senior Vice President.
Actually the Provo Conference promise the DBO’s the world. DBO who signed up before 1 July get the ratio of TCM assigned up to 100 by rank. After 1 July it expired. (why expire that)?
The TCM’s, BDO’s and Non-profit organizations will be part of getting 300 million American’s onboard to join “TRANZACTCARD”.
The PROVO, US Conference in July updated info of the launch that mobile TRANZACTCARD corporate office will roll out a TRANZACTCARD AD on wheels.
Yes, A BAT-MOBILE OR TRANZACTCARD MOBILE in their respective city. OK, who is going to be driving these TRANZACTCARD MOBILES? I see milking more money out of Ranking leaders to purchase one of these Batmobiles in their respective city.
So in other words the ranking leaders who purchase the batmobiles will gain more TCM and more volume quicker than an everyday worker on the job who passes by word of the mouth that wanted to make some money.
EXAMPLE: A TRANZACTMOBILE for a respective city will generate over 100 TCM per day. Now a TCM who goes to a 9-5 job only generates 5 to 10 TCM (can increase if they are network marketers).
What is the promise? TRANZACTCARD PROMISE THE DBO’s a ratio of TCMs by RANK, top of the line is President will receive 100 TCMs.
This promotion expired 1 July, Why? There are 300 million Americans or more who use Visa card.
If TRANZACTCARD member can get 100 referral’s why not leave it to them to make some money. All referral will not spend $4K to $6K monthly to build a residual, but give them the chance.
Last but not the TRANZACTCARD has changed every month. So I don’t know why these folks resort to posting the lasts COMPLAN because it is a broken promise.
Please don’t get me wrong. TRANZACTCARD is a GOOD CONCEPT if it works.
Now between Aug to Dec if you build your Z-BUCKS, can you image Christmas time where people will have build THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF Z-BUCK DOLLARS AND ALL THEY HAVE TO DO IS GO SHOPPING. WILL Z-CLUB DELIVER…MMMMMmmmmmm.
MangoMan, I have no doubt there are 300 million Visa transactions, but there are not 300 million Visa Card holders. That would mean almost every man, woman and child in the US would have a Visa card.
It also means there would be no reason to leave their Visa card for this card in the numbers they need to keep this going.
Like in every MLM program, you should run out of people to join by the time you get to 13 levels deep depending on how they set up the matrix for the downline membership.
If you think that each Visa card program is just going to roll over and play dead when this tries to take away their customers, they are living in fantasy land. This is all smoke and mirrors.
Wow! Look at this Richard Smith rabbit hole: https://behindmlm.com/companies/ix-global-sued-for-49-million-in-fraud-by-sec/
Scam after scam after scam. Gullible/Desperate peope keep on following these types of people. A sucker is born every second.
Just because a business doesn’t pan out doesn’t make it a scam. (Ozedit: snip, see below)
Nobody said it did. If you have to make up a premise to argue against you’ve already lost.
