To Be Concluded

Here we end with the compensation plan of APLGO. Now let us answer the most asked questions related to APLGO.

Is APLGO a Scam?

APLGO is a nutrition and beauty products-based network marketing company. As per the compensation plan, distributors get a commission on personal and downline product sales.

Network marketing is a legal business, hence APLGO is a legal entity in most countries if it follows regulatory guidelines.

APLGO highly focuses more on recruitment practice and not on retail sales.

In November 2021, APLGO received a warning in Vietnam for illegal MLM activities.

APLGO is a new company in the USA and has the most participants from Russia.

Overpriced Products & Complex Incomes

APLGO’s Facial Toner has a retail price of $125. Like this, most APLGO products are extremely expensive for end customers. Overpriced product is a common characteristic of most MLM companies. But APLGO products are not for ordinary people and hence it becomes difficult to succeed in MLM.

First of all, there is no URL to the compensation plan file on APLGO’s official public website and the compensation plan is extremely complicated to understand.

Out of the total incomes mentioned, a few incomes are not explained in marketing material.

APLGO have 3 different types of customers and 2 types of ranks (Qualification & GoStatus) which brings more confusion. APLGO has messed up things and unnecessarily made plan complicated, while income can be described in shorter and better ways.
