BigCrumbs vs My Power Mall 

Which Home Based Opportunity Will Make You The Most For Your Efforts?

Cost to Sign-up

*BigCrumbs - Free
*My Power Mall - $15.95 minimum if you wish to make any money off referral income

Purchasing Requirement?

*BigCrumbs - None
*My Power Mall - None with Personal Mall - Membership Fee for a mall to earn money off referrals

Rebate / Compensation Plan Comparison

*BigCrumbs - 5 Tier Pay Plan
Based Average Commissions with 5 Direct Referrals, each referring 5 down all 5 levels, and everyone spending $50/month.
Total # of Shoppers - 3,905
Total Per Month = $1,366.75

*My Power Mall - 14 Tier Pay Plan
Based on Average Commissions with 5 Direct Referrals, each referring 5 down all original 9 levels, and everyone spending $50/month. They've since added 5 more tiers at 1% on each tier ( good luck even getting down this far ).
Total # of Shoppers - 488,280
Total Per Month = $39,257.08


These numbers represent an average amount made per shopper of:
*BigCrumbs - $0.35 per shopper
*My Power Mall - $0.08 per shopper.

BigCrumbs pays out just over 4 times more on a per shopper basis.

These are the raw figures I've come up with, being a member in each and pulling the numbers directly from each of their income calculators. It is evident that when it comes down to sheer ability to make money, then BigCrumbs is the clear choice.

As far as tools and support go, My Power Mall wins in that arena. So you need to make your choice, are you the type that needs more support to make it or can you go it your own? There's pros and cons to both.

My Power Mall Review 

The "no longer free" Online Business

To date, I've ceased promoting My Power Mall altogether. It's gone from a free shopping portal to where you must pay to be a member if you plan on referring anyone - something I can't promote given the fact that the returns in this venture have yet to be proven by ANYONE in this business. Now they are trying to convince folks to buy into a monthly subscription based "you can do it" program, which is probably the only way anyone is going to make any money.

It's full of hype and "dream big" crap in my opinion - nothing real. It fails at it's basic function, paying shoppers their rebates for using this portal. My personal experience and many others are proof enough for me that you can't even get credit for doing the shopping...and good luck getting paid. They can't even decide how they're going to pay members "if" they qualify for payment.

My suggestion: Stay away from this...run away...FAST!

I still give BigCrumbs the lead by far.

    it's close to midnight MST ..MPM has recruited a grand total of 102 new people for the day. For an outfit that boasts that they have over 138,000 members, and are currently in 200 countries, I'm going out on a limb and say, if it's a numbers game , to achieve a large enough downline ...It may take a few lifetimes to succeed.
    Why debate who's better ..MPM by the data they them self provide are a natural born loser ,destine for failure! No downline, no sales ,no sales ,no commission, no commission....,figure it out!

    Remember Linda that BC only goes 5 levels, which means if they're offering 1.2% to all 5 levels plus the purchaser you have a total of 5 levels x1.2 = 6% plus 1.2% for the purchase = 7.2% rebates for the purchase. Yes, there are higher and lower paying companies but near as I can see, on a per shopper basis you get a much higher percentage from shopping on BC. Also, how do you see them losing money with that type of payment? They're obviously getting more than 7.2% from those stores, nobody in their right mind would offer a higher rebate than they're receiving. Check the history of BC - if they haven't gone belly up by now due to their percentages, don't think they're going to in the near future.

    I've been with MPM nearly since the beginning (#4336)AND I also joined BigCrumbs because I sell on eBay as well - and that is all I use BC for! It's not a pissing match folks - they're both free - one is 9 levels with 1200 stores and avail in 233 countries and the other is only 5 levels, 250 stores and in 5 countries. Levels don't matter and how many stores don't mater either IF NO ONE IS SHOPPING!! What is important though is that because MPM has the training and support and regular updates and MT Captains etc - there's a human factor involved that helps everyone to gain the most they can. AND - you ultimately stand to earn more with MPM IF you know how to set up your organization to best benefit YOU. a)BC doesn't offer 35% & b)if you study BC structure, because they pay out the same on all levels of referrals upline - where are they making any $$?? I don't see them being around for the long run...think about it - they're paying out more than they're getting = not smart business.

    To Alexander, no need for Jesse to do the math - I already did it for ya in my lens. As far as MPM wanting money from people, Ginny actually asked for investments awhile back - check it out if you feel the need.
