Money FX Group supplies no info on their web site about who owns or runs the enterprise.
Money FX Group’s web site area (“cashfxgroup.com”) was privately registered on March 4th, 2019.
Replace thirteenth October 2019 – CashFX associates are citing Huascar Lopez as founder and CEO of the corporate.
As finest I could make out, Lopez seems to be from the Dominican Republic.
The one MLM firm I used to be in a position to peg Lopez too was My Enjoyable Life circa 2013-2014. /finish replace
As at all times, if an MLM firm shouldn’t be brazenly upfront about who’s working or owns it, suppose lengthy and exhausting about becoming a member of and/or handing over any cash.

Money FX Group funding packages expire when both 200% in passive returns or 400% in MLM associated commissions are earned.
As soon as both 200% or 400% in returns have been generated, funding in a brand new package deal is required as a way to proceed incomes.

The corporate makes use of 50% of this payment to fund residual matrix commissions (see beneath).

This 50% is calculated primarily based on PV generated through Academy Pack funding.
E.g. recruiting a 500 package deal affiliate generates 250 PV, which pays out a $125 recruitment fee.

A unilevel compensation construction locations an affiliate on the high of a unilevel workforce, with each personally recruited affiliate positioned instantly underneath them (stage 1):

Residual Commissions (3×10 matrix)
A 3×10 matrix locations a Money FX Group affiliate on the high of a matrix, with three positions instantly underneath them:
These three positions kind the primary stage of the matrix.
The second stage of the matrix is generated by splitting these first three positions into one other three positions every (9 positions).
Ranges three to 10 of the matrix are generated in the identical method, with every new stage housing 3 times as many positions because the earlier stage.
Positions within the matrix are crammed through direct and oblique recruitment of Money FX Group buyers.
Residual matrix commissions are funded by 50% of withdrawal charges collected from associates positioned within the matrix.
What number of matrix ranges a Money FX Group affiliate earns on is decided by how a lot they’ve invested:
- make investments on the 300 or 500 package deal tiers and earn 3% on ranges 1 to three
- make investments on the 1K package deal tier and earn 3% on ranges 1 to three and 5% on stage 4

A ten% matching bonus can be paid out on residual matrix commissions earned by personally recruited associates.
Management Bonuses
Govt and better Money FX Group affiliate ranks purportedly correspond with related Management Bonuses.
On the time of publication these usually are not included in Money FX Group’s compensation materials.
What we do know is that when a personally recruited affiliate qualifies on the similar rank, the recruiting affiliate receives 50% of their Management Bonus.
Becoming a member of Money FX Group
Money FX Group affiliate membership is tied to a $300 to $100,000 preliminary funding.
As soon as a 200% or 400% return has been generated, reinvestment is required as a way to proceed to take part in Money FX Group’s revenue alternative.
Conclusion
Money FX Group declare to generate exterior ROI income by way of “assisted buying and selling techniques with algorithms”.
No proof of any buying and selling is supplied, nor does Money FX Group disclose any details about their purported buying and selling exercise on their web site.
Moreover, while clearly providing a passive funding alternative, Money FX Group supplies no proof of getting registered itself with monetary regulators.
As an alternative the corporate states it’s
Regulated by the next establishments: FAC – Monetary Conduct Authority of London, DFSA – Monetary Providers Authority in Dubai, FSCA – Monetary Sector Conduct Authority of South Africa and FSA – the Monetary Providers Authority of Seychelles.
Dubai and Seychelles are scam-friendly jurisdictions with little to no regulation, so we are able to ignore them.
The Monetary Conduct Authority, incorrectly cited because the “FAC”, regulate securities within the UK.
On the time of publication Money FX Group shouldn’t be registered with the FCA.
A search of licensed monetary service suppliers registered with the FSCA additionally reveals Money FX Group shouldn’t be registered to supply securities in South Africa.
Past the same old meaningless shell incorporation, it’s in all probability a secure guess Money FX Group and its operators aren’t registered to supply securities in Dubai or Seychelles both.
Extra importantly, I’ve personally witnessed a lot of US-based promoters internet hosting Money FX Group prelaunch alternative calls.
Money FX Group shouldn’t be registered to supply securities within the US.
Until Money FX Group registered with monetary regulators in each jurisdiction it solicits funding in, the corporate and its promoters are working illegally the world over.
With out legally required monetary regulatory registration, Money FX Group buyers haven’t any approach of verifying the corporate is utilizing exterior income to pay returns.
In some unspecified time in the future Money FX Group will in all probability present social media movies of purported merchants and buying and selling exercise, however this isn’t an alternative choice to registering with regulators.
Neither is it precise proof of exterior income being truly used to pay associates.
Exterior of Money FX Group’s passive funding alternative, the corporate operates as a pyramid scheme.
There are not any retail clients in Money FX Group (retail clients paying 30% withdrawal charges?), which means 100% of commissions are tied to recruitment.
Moreover it’s within the MLM facet of the enterprise that one can affirm Money FX Group is working as a Ponzi scheme.
If I enroll as a Money FX Group investor with the intention of producing a 400% return, I achieve this by recruiting new buyers and them doing the identical.
My 400% return is thus actually paid out of subsequent funding.
If recycling invested funds is occurring on the MLM facet of the enterprise, relaxation assured it’s taking place on the buying and selling facet of the enterprise too.
Secondary to funding and pyramid fraud is “pay to play”.
Money FX Group’s compensation plan demonstrates pay to play by proscribing matrix ranges primarily based on how a lot an affiliate invests.
In MLM fee qualification ought to at all times be tied to gross sales quantity, not how a lot an affiliate themselves spends or invests.
As with all MLM Ponzi schemes, as soon as affiliate recruitment inevitably dies down so too will new funding.
This may starve Money FX Group of ROI income, finally prompting a collapse.
The mathematics behind Ponzi schemes ensures that after they collapse, the vast majority of members lose cash.
