Jamalife Helpers Review: Eight-tier cycler Ponzi targeting Africa
Jamalife Helpers provides no information on their website about who owns or runs the business.
The Jamalife Helpers website domain (“jamalifehelpersglobal.com”) was privately registered on November 8th, 2016.
Jamalife Helpers primarily targets Africa, as evidenced by Alexa traffic estimates for their website.
As I write this, Alexa peg Nigeria (35%) and South Africa (20%) as the top two sources of traffic to the Jamalife Helpers website. They are followed by Botswana (10%), Cote d’Ivoire (7%) and Malawi (6%).
Given this, it’s highly probably that whoever is running Jamalife Helpers is based out of Africa itself.
My guess would be Nigeria, owing to the Jamalife Helpers website defaulting to USD the Nigerian Naira.
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.
Jamalife Helpers Products
Jamalife Helpers has no retailable products or services, with affiliates only able to market Jamalife Helpers affiliate membership itself.
The Jamalife Helpers Compensation Plan
Jamalife Helpers affiliates purchase $5 positions in an eight tier matrix cycler.
Matrix sizes used in Jamalife Helpers’ compensation plan are 2×2 and 2×3.
A 2×2 matrix places a Jamalife Helpers affiliate at the top of a matrix, with two positions directly under them:
These two positions form the first level of the matrix. The second level of the matrix is generated by splitting these first two positions into another two positions each (4 positions).
Thus a 2×2 matrix houses a total of six positions.
A 2×3 matrix adds an additional level to the matrix for a total of fourteen positions:
Commissions in Jamalife Helpers are paid out as positions in a matrix cycler tier are filled.
Positions in a matrix are filled via $5 cycler position purchases by new and existing Jamalife Helpers affiliates.
Once all positions in a matrix are filled, a “cycle” is triggered and a commission paid out.
Commissions paid across Jamalife Helpers’ eight matrix cycler tiers are as follows:
- Stage 1 (positions cost $5, 2×2 matrix) – $3 cycle commission and cycles into Stage 2
- Stage 2 (2×3 matrix) – $21 commission and cycles into Stage 3
- Stage 3 (2×3 matrix) – $140 commission and cycles into Stage 4
- Stage 4 (2×3 matrix) – $770 commission and cycles into Stage 5
- Stage 5 (2×3 matrix) – $3500 commission and cycles into Stage 6
- Stage 6 (2×3 matrix) – $11,200 commission and cycles into Stage 7
- Stage 7 (2×3 matrix) – $56,000 commission and cycles into Stage 8
- Stage 8 (2×3 matrix) – $280,000 commission and generates a new Stage 8 matrix position
Bonuses
Starting at the Stage 5 cycler tier, Jamalife Helpers rewards affiliates with the following one-time bonuses:
- cycle out of Stage 5 and receive “phone, laptop & household gadgets worth $1000”
- cycle out of Stage 6 and receive a “mini SUV car worth $13,000”
- cycle out of Stage 7 and receive either a “Jeep car worth $50,000” or “travel & tours worth $10,000”
- cycle out of Stage 8 and receive a “housing fund of $300,000” and a Range Rover car worth $170,000

Jamalife Helpers affiliate membership is free.
Participation in the attached MLM opportunity however requires the purchase of at least one $5 cycler position.
Conclusion
Jamalife Helpers markets nothing to retail customers. Affiliates sign up and invest at least $5 on the promise of a potential $351,634 ROI.
The ROI is paid out of subsequent $5 investments, making Jamalife Helpers a Ponzi scheme.
To put Jamalife Helpers’ advertised ROI into perspective, 70,327 five dollar investments are required to satisfy just one $351,634 ROI.
In reality even more is required, owing to the non-linear way in which the company-wide matrix at each tier fills. Cycle tier bonuses also bump up the required funds per total ROI payout.
In order to pay a total ROI on just a few cycler positions, easily over a million $5 positions will have to be purchased. And that number only gets exponentially worse over time.
Contrary to the company’s name, matrix cycler Ponzi schemes like Jamalife Helpers primarily benefit those running them.
Through one or more preloaded admin positions, whoever is running Jamalife Helpers will receive most of the funds invested into the cycler.
A few early adopters will receive what’s left, with Ponzi math guaranteeing that the majority of Jamalife Helpers lose money.

This is serious o. It looks like I have falling for that, though with 6000 but to get people is as difficult as anything.
I began to wonder what they do with the money and the compensation is too much to be real. Besides one needs a very Large number of people.
May God safe us in this country o. MLM thrives in poor countries.
Good morning, I have to disagree with this nonsense!
In the first place, the fact that I have to fill my email, tells me already a lot!
Since the day I joined jamalife my life change completely… services is as good as products, some companies sell physical products other services and some both!
Jamalife system require only people! If you bring g in more it will to your team and to yourself!
I get my commission on the dot when someone drop in my matrix! Jamalife for real for life!
Jamalife give back to its members. 20 cars was rewarded to members last year, not because they qualify according the comp plan…but to help members to do the business effectively!
Two houses of 3. 9 million rands was given to members! And as I speak I’m in South Africa all expense paid by jamalife. Five star hotel, flying returnfrom Namibia paid by jamalife!
Jamalife is giving back to the community. .200 members attend the seminar in South Africa all expenses paid by jamalife!
Jamalife is not a ponsi scheme!jamalife was started in Belgium by Kurt maes together with other network marketers!
Jamalife is changing lives all over the globe!
Whether you agree or disagree with the fact JamaLife is a cycler Ponzi scam is neither here nor there.
Don’t kid yourself. You stealing from your fellow Africans isn’t helping anyone but yourself.
The least you can do for your victims is own your thievery.
It sure is. People all over the globe are having their lives changed by having their money stolen by people such as Sophia Cloete.
Sophia Cloete, your nothing but a leach sucking the life blood out of innocent victims.
While you are flying around staying in five star hotels all with the money stolen from other victims of Jamalife, I hope that someday soon this comes back to haunt you. Your nothing but a Ponzi scheme pimp….
There had been this type of scheme in many parts of the world and they all failed.
I’m not stopping anyone from joining but “Ro daradara ki o to kowo le”.
The first few may gain something but a lot of them are likely to regret because it is not sustainable.
As much as this blog is right so its wrong.
1) Jamalife pays per head that registered in a matrix, not when the whole matrix is filled.
2) if you say jamalife doesn’t have product, you might be right depending on what you understand as products.
Products can be tangible or intangible. Jamalife offers skill acquisition training (soap making, paint production, etc) to there members. And I stand to believe that this is a very good product with such a price.
Note: Many recognized if not all network marketing organisation collect registration fee from there members……. Please kindly redo your review. Thanks.
The end result is the same. For the sake of simplicity I just calculate the total matrix payout per tier.
There’s a difference between having a product and having a retailable product.
As noted in the review, Jamalife has no retailable products or services.
You can’t “we have products!” your way out of Ponzi fraud. You’re selling matrix cycler positions – what you bundle with them is irrelevant.
It depends on what you meant by retailable products. I have never seen any retailable product like skills acquisition because at your comfort you developed yourself, transfer the good deed either free or cash.
Infact, there are many network marketing organisation that tell you to buy there product atleast once in a life time. Then refer people to buy.
World is evolving, alot of things are changing, there are lot of network marketing organisation that are selling hotel reservations, picnic packages etc, all in the name of service.
What matters is that, is there a value in exchange for my money aside from the network structuring scheme?
The sale of a product and/or service to genuine retail customers (non-participants).
This is the only meaning of retailable products with respect to MLM regulation and due-diligence.
The Ponzi model hasn’t, it’s been the same scam since the 1930s. Stop making excuses for scammers.
It’s not about making excuses. It’s about not throwing stone into the ruin of a brave man’s house.
There’s nothing brave about launching and promoting Ponzi schemes. Own your thievery.
Most people don’t understand how ponzi schemes work. The fact that you are able to cash out in the short term doesn’t make it legit.
Jamalife will not go beyond 2019. It’s at its climax.
Emmanuel, Let wait and see.
See mumu people, I just make money from them, dey there make you dey argue.
All I got from your incoherent comment is that JamaLife Helpers is legit because you make money.
That’s not how due-diligence works.
well its 2020 and they seem to be going strong. Had a friend who cashed out the level 4, N308,000 yesterday. hmmmmmmm.
Alexa traffic estimates for JamaLife’s website show a decline from late July 2019. There is no need to lie about JamaLife’s current status.
That said, Ponzi cyclers will continue to pay out as long as new victims are recruited. Your friend stealing money from people who join after him is not evidence of legitimacy.
You can’t legitimize a Ponzi scheme.
What, how can u calculate 1930, with 2020. Two different centuries. Oga go and make concreat research in recent mlm world, b4 u blab shit out.
That’s the thing about Ponzi schemes. The vehicle and buzzwords change, the fraudulent business model is the same.
Just because you haven’t seen a particular scam model before doesn’t mean it hasn’t been around in one form or another for almost 100 years.
So because the company dont have a tangible product is a ponzi right. Is that your conclusion. If it is, then lets accept it the way u said it.
No. Jamalife Helpers is a Ponzi scheme because newly invested funds are used to pay existing investors.
Okay. Agreed.
Either a scam or not some people would benefit and if it goes otherwise some people would suffer it. even people would say all these MLM companies are using there participant, (markerter) to enrich themselves.
what of our country, (Ozedit: derails removed)
A small percentage of scammers benefiting from a Ponzi scheme is not justification for fraud. Neither is what other MLM companies do or don’t do.
Also if you want to have a whinge about your country, do it elsewhere. It has nothing to do with Jamalife Helpers being a Ponzi scheme.
