Crowd1 denies false claims and unjustified accusations

Crowd1 has fought back against false claims by BBC’s Crowd1 documentary “Unmasking the Pyramid Kings – Crowd1 scam targets Africa.”

The firm said in a press release that there are several slanderous, false claims and unjustified accusations circulating against Crowd1’s business model, and the affiliate members.

Crowd1 indicated that it is an incorrect perception of Crowd1 as they offer SAfer, Tribute and LifeTRNDS, among other interesting products, besides their educational packages.

According to a Crowd1 press release:

Crowd 1 has, therefore, decided to publish the following statements and clarifications in South Africa and other affected markets regarding such claims and accusations.

1. Crowd1 is not an investment or financial services company. We are an online network marketing company.
2. Crowd1 does not sell any kind of financial products or provide any financial services, and therefore there is no need for us to be registered as a provider of financial products or services.
3. There is no sign-up fee or premium payable in order to join Crowd1, hence no revenue is derived from the sign-up process. All revenues in Crowd1 come from product sales.

As far as we are concerned, there is no rational basis for the false claims and accusations against Crowd1 other than to disrupt its business activities. We are 100% registered in South Africa with all the relevant authorities based on the business model and products we sell.

• – Crowd1 is an online network marketing company, which offers an amazing platform to generate additional revenue for themselves. It is possible for anyone to run their business from basically anywhere where there is an internet connection and the only thing you need is a smartphone. Through online network marketing, you basically are giving people a fishing rod and not just a fish. Says Jonathan Ström, Chief of African Expansion and continues by saying:
• – We’re not selling any kind of financial products or services, and therefore there is no need for us to be registered as such. It is very important that everyone understands this. We don’t offer any kind of financial product or provide financial services. It is as simple as that.

Similar to Uber and Airbnb, who own neither cars nor beds or keep any form of stock, Crowd1 does not sell any products of its own.

It merely markets other companies’ products and services. Crowd1 always strives to find a strategic partnership with companies where we claim it possible to create a win-win situation that can benefit all included parties.

The companies that Crowd1 has identified and are collaborating with are great and successful in the field in which they are operational, Crowd1’s intention is, therefore, to expose their services and products to a large number of people through the Crowd1 platform and the usage of Crowd marketing.

As a result of this, Crowd1 can offer its affiliate members great products and services at a lower price in addition to other benefits and share the majority of the profits earned back to the hard-working Crowd1 network.

So, if you work hard and are good at your job, you will be rewarded. As previously mentioned, there is no sign-up fee in Crowd1, hence no revenue is derived from the sign-up process. All revenues in Crowd1 are generated from the sales of products, where the focus has mainly been on digital products since it allows us to gain global accessibility and reach millions of members worldwide.

Crowd1 is not like buying stock or shares, where you can sit back and hope it will increase in value, you always need to work and make sales to earn through the compensation plan. I think it is very inspiring to see the hard work that the successful and amazing people put into this,

says Jonathan Ström.

Furthermore, on the 4th of July Crowd1 is really proud to present new products to our exciting product line. This is something that Crowd1, of course, would have loved to have launched at an earlier stage but due to the Covid-19 pandemic, these things were postponed until now.

Crowd1 also has a really strong product pipeline with additional products that will be launched in the next coming months.

Crowd1’s most distinct and disruptive contribution is that it leverages both the crowd- and the sharing economy.
