In this lens, we will discuss whether Bux.to is a scam. I hope to get various opinions that will help me and others on the Net make decisions about this site.

Bux.to is a PTC site that started their beta launch on June 12, 2007.

Their layout was almost identical to another PTC site, Adbux. This caused concern to some people, but others were just happy to use something that is familiar.

They grew quickly because, each Ad click is 1 cent and you earn 100% of your referrals earnings.

This is on their Welcome page:

" Welcome to Bux.to!
At Bux.to, you get paid to click on ads and visit websites. The process is easy! You simply click a link and view a website for 30 seconds to earn money. You can earn even more by referring friends. You'll get paid $0.01 for each website you personally view and $0.01 for each website your referrals view. Payment requests can be made every day and are processed through PayPal. The minimum payout is $10.00.

Earnings Example
» You click 10 ads per day = $0.10
» 20 referrals click 10 ads per day = $2.00
» Your daily earnings = $2.10
» Your weekly earnings = $14.70
» Your monthly earnings = $63.00

The above example is based only on 20 referrals and 10 daily clicks. Some days you will have more clicks available, some days you will have less. What if you had more referrals? What if there were more ads available?

I joined them, clicked everyday on all the ads available (usually about 4 to 8 ads). I managed to get 13 referrals of which a few are active. After about 2 months, I reached payout.

Then, the TOS changed: I was told that since I am not an upgraded member, I would need to wait for 30 business days to get my $10.01, provided I pass the audit. And so, I waited. And then, when I least espected it, they paid me on Oct 05 2007.

Does this mean that they do pay? I have checked with some forums and it seems that they do pay, but due to the long payout time, people find it difficult to wait and start calling it a scam.


Although their payout time is long, Bux.to is still one of the fastest growing PTC. I think that it is because their payment of 1 cent per click and 1 cent for each of your referrals' clicks means that your earnings can grow quite fast especially if you have some active referrals. I am now getting about 13 clicks per day. Upgraded members get at least 20 ads per day.

They have paid me again 30 Dec 2007 after more than 30 business days. So, I guess they may sometimes be late in payment but so far they have been paying.

However, the payout time has been changed to 60 business days for free members and 30 business days for upgraded members. They are now paying via AlertPay.
