Residual Commissions (unilevel)

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.

Maktub Emirates caps payable unilevel team levels at nine.

Residual unilevel commissions are paid out as a percentage of points generated via investment across these nine levels as follows:

  • Desert and Falcon affiliates receive 10% on level 1, 5% on level 2 and 1% on levels 3 and 4
  • Miracle affiliates receive 10% on level 1 and 2% on levels 3 and 4
  • Aquarium affiliates receive 10% on level 1, 5% on level 2, 2% on levels 3 and 4 and 1% on level 5

  • Khalifa affiliates receive 11% on level 1, 5% on level 2, 2% on levels 3 and 4 and 1% on levels 5 to 9

For corresponding investment tier point values see the “Incentive Bonus” section above.

Residual Commissions (binary)

A binary compensation structure places an affiliate at the top of a binary team, split into two sides (left and right):

The first level of the binary team houses two positions. The second level of the binary team is generated by splitting these first two positions into another two positions each (4 positions).

Subsequent levels of the binary team are generated as required, with each new level housing twice as many positions as the previous level.

Positions in the binary team are filled via direct and indirect recruitment of affiliates. Note there is no limit to how deep a binary team can grow.

At the end of each day Maktub Emirates tallies up new investment volume on both sides of the binary team.

Affiliates are paid 60% of corresponding investment point volume generated on their weaker binary team side.

Note that leftover volume on the stronger binary side is carried over the following day.

For corresponding investment tier point values see the “Incentive Bonus” section above.

Matching Bonus

The Matching Bonus is paid out on residual binary commissions paid to downline affiliates.

The Matching Bonus is paid out using the same unilevel compensation structure as residual unilevel commissions, capped down five levels of recruitment.

  • Aquarium and Safari affiliates earn a 2% match on level 2 and 1% on levels 2 and 3

Conclusion

Rather than cough up one external ROI revenue cliché, Maktub Emirates go for gold by claiming to be involved in forex, real estate, petroleum, cryptocurrency and stock exchange(s).

Naturally no evidence of any of the company’s claimed activities is provided.

That leaves new investment as Maktub Emirates’ sole verifiable source of revenue.

Faceless corporation, unverifiable revenue claims, ridiculous returns? Yep, Maktub Emirates is just another Ponzi scheme.

Maktub Emirates affiliates invest funds on the promise of a ROI, paid out of subsequently invested funds.

If Maktub Emirates’ anonymous admins were able to legitimately generate a consistent 2.8% daily ROI, they’d have no reason to solicit investment from randoms over the internet.

Secondary compliance issues include pay to play and pyramid recruitment.

Pay to play is evident in pretty much every commission payout, with how much a Maktub Emirates affiliate invests dictating ROI and commission amounts.

Pyramid recruitment occurs by way of commissions paid on fees and invested funds by recruited affiliates (Maktub Emirates has no retail tier).

As with all MLM Ponzi schemes, once affiliate recruitment slows down so too will new investment.

This will starve Maktub Emirates of ROI revenue, eventually prompting a collapse.

The math behind Ponzi schemes guarantees that when they collapse, the majority of investors lose money.
