The  Plexus Compensation Plan

There are several ways to earn in Plexus as an ambassador. The company's compensation plan listed 10 ways to earn.

However, before we go into that, it is best that we understand first the Plexus ranks and achievements.

For you to rise to these ranks, you must be a qualified ambassador who pays the annual membership fee of US$39.95 and you have at least 100 Personal Volume (PV) before the monthly cycle ends.

 As the rank increases, the higher Plexus Points (PP) and personally sponsored qualified ambassadors are required.

1. Ambassador

2. Senior Ambassador

3. Silver Ambassador

4. Gold Ambassador

5. Senior Gold Ambassador

6. Ruby Ambassador

7. Senior Ruby Ambassador

8. Emerald Ambassador

9. Sapphire Ambassador

10. Diamond Ambassador

First, an ambassador can earn from purchases of referred customers. This may range from US$4-22 per product.

Second, an ambassador can earn through the Personal Volume accumulated based on purchases associated with his or her ambassador number. The percentage earned from PV depends on the PV value accumulated. Since ambassadors are able to purchase at wholesale price, they can also earn retail profit when they make sales at retail prices directly from their own inventory.

Third, ambassadors earn retail rewards override commissions for any of their Pay Level 1 ambassador that earn over 100 PV. This commission is 5% of that ambassador’s PV.

Fourth, ambassadors can earn bonus and Plexus Points from their new ambassadors purchase of Welcome Pack.

Fifth, ambassadors get achievement bonus for each rank achieved from Silver ambassador up until the senior Ruby status.

Sixth, bonus can also be earned from Plexus Points earned for each Welcome Pack purchases of new ambassadors in your team.

Seventh, upon reaching Emerald position, you are now entitled to a portion of 3% of the 50% of the company's Commissionable Volume that is to be divided for Emeralds, Sapphire and Diamond.

Eight, at Sapphire level in addition to a portion of bonus that you can get from the emerald bonus pool, there is 1% of the 50% of the company's Commissionable Volume that is allotted for Sapphire and Diamond levels.

Ninth, at Diamond level, there is 1% of the 50% of the company's commissionable volume allotted for Diamond levels in addition to the share of bonus from the emerald and sapphire pool.

Tenth, Diamond levels can double leverage their earning by re entering the program with a second position that will be placed under his/her team at Level 1.

Plexus also offers car bonus and lifestyle bonus programs to Emerald, Sapphire and Diamond levels.

Conclusion - Is Plexus Worldwide A Scam

So, is Plexus Worldwide a scam? No, definitely not.

Plexus Worldwide has actual product lines that cater to people's need for weight loss, nutrition, skin care and body care.

 The remaining question though is do the products work? There is not enough scientific research to back whether or not Plexus products work.

Another drawback can be the product prices too because they are relatively costly.

If you are into the company’s products, then being an ambassador can be your alternative source of income.

If the products actually work for you, then marketing and selling them may be an opportunity as a side hustle.

Plexus requires a reasonable amount of annual membership and a substantial income, as outlined earlier, is not guaranteed.

 The core of its compensation plan lies mainly to recruiting ambassadors to your organization. If you can recruit and make your organization to replicate your effort then this is the best way to earn a decent income.

 In saying that, earning a good income from this scheme is really challenging.

 This is even clear in the company's income disclosure where the median income is really low amongst ambassadors and less than 1% of the ambassadors are earning a decent amount to support oneself let alone a family.

Here is what I would recommend to earn a passive income, without selling or recruiting.
