Is MoolaVine A Scam? – Truth Exposed!
When I heard of MoolaVine and that it was the brain-child of Bryan Winters, I just had to check it out. Some of his products aren’t as good, like 5 Figure Day and CashBlurbs, but I really have to say that his ideas are very unique and that’s the reason I wanted to know what he had come up with this time, inside of MoolaVine.
Is MoolaVine a scam, where Bryan is going to run away with your money and leave you stranded with broken promises? Or will Bryan deliver on his promise of being able to make you money through this system?
What you will find within this review will be truly eye-opening and I highly recommend that you read all the way to the bottom as I expose the truth about this system.
At A Glance
Name: MoolaVine
Website: MoolaVine.com
Owner: Bryan Winters
Purpose: Make money doing affiliate marketing
Price: Free membership, $30/month membership
Do I Recommend?: Absolutely!
MoolaVine – What is it?
Bryan starts off the sales video by introducing himself and showing you the big income numbers that he is able to bring in with his online business, on autopilot. He entices you by telling you that he is able to reap benefits, such as having lots of time on his hands and being able to spend time with his family, going on vacation and fishing, his favourite hobby.
He goes on to explain how MoolaVine works; to have hundreds to thousands of people with credit-card ready in hand, to purchase through YOUR link, and not anybody else’s. Bryan says that all you would then need to do, is to reply to emails with your affiliate link, making “effortless” $10, $25 and $100+ commissions.
So basically, unlike other businesses where you have to go looking for people, people will come to you, READY to buy! he explains that it is like affiliate marketing but in reverse.
Bryan is such a nice guy that he is ready to GIVE you this system, for a wonderful price of………… $0. Yup, FREE! Who on earth would not grab this opportunity? It is a dream come true, isn’t it? Bryan asks you to imagine what you could be doing with such a system, bringing you $100+ commissions every single day.
As per Bryan, “Anybody can make easy money MoolaVine”, and you don’t need any experience. In fact, you could even receive your first commission today.
Is it true? Can you make full-time income with MoolaVine and quit your job, stay home with your family, go on vacation and live the laptop lifestyle?
How Does MoolaVine Work?
MoolaVine is a cooperation-based website, that will have you as a referral, purchasing through your mentor’s link. Likewise, your referrals (called Vines) will purchase through your link. These would be products that Bryan says that either you or “they would have bought anyways” but are buying through affiliate links.
It does not change the price of the product, but it helps your mentor make money, just like your Vines that will buy through you, will make you money by buying through your link.
When you buy a product through MoolaVine (and earning your mentor a commission off this sale), it gives you what are called “Green Days”, which is a time period within which you will be eligible to earn commissions from any product. As soon as those days are over, you have to buy a new product, which will reset your Green Days clock.
If you upgrade to the Unlimited Green Day Plan, which I will be discussing below, you are not required to buy any product at all. Your mentor will receive recurring monthly commissions from your upgrade and you will also receive unlimited commissions from whatever product your Vines buy and a recurring monthly commission for whoever upgrades to the Unlimited Plan.
Your job would be to get as many vines as possible and for them to purchase either a product through approved marketplaces such as ClickBank and JVzoo through your link, or for them to upgrade to the Unlimited Plan so you can make recurring monthly commissions from their monthly payment.
Don’t Mistake MoolaVine for a Pyramid or an MLM!
Don’t mistake this as an MLM or a pyramid scheme, because it’s not. A pyramid scheme is one where you have to pay a fee to join the program, where the only way to make money for you, would be through recruiting. Not only would you make money through your recruit, but your uplines as well.
An MLM is where you (sometimes) have a fee to join the company, where this fee is used to educate you about the products and where you make money through the sales of products ONLY. You may either make money through selling the products yourself, or through the sales made by your downlines. Commisions are paid on multiple levels, meaning your uplines make money from your sales / your referrals’ sales too.
MoolaVine uses an affiliate marketing system. If you are not familiar with this term, I would suggest that you Read My Article On Affiliate Marketing HERE. But a brief description is that you can make money through recruiting or through the sales of products, where only YOU make money. Your uplines don’t. It’s commission paid on a single level. It is completely legit.
Upsells
1) Unlimited Green Day Plan – $1 Trial, $20/$30 monthly
I signed up for free and was immediately hit with the first upsell, which to try the Unlimited Green Days Plan for 5 days, for only $1. After 5 days, the price will be a recurring monthly fee of $20, a 33% discount from $30. With this upgrade, not only would you be eligible to receive commissions right away from your Vines’ purchases, but you also receive $10 for each Vine that upgrades to the Unlimited Plan.
This sounded good and I had nothing to lose by trying it out for $1 for 5 days, so I grabbed the offer.
2) Dual Squeeze – $97 One-Time Fee
This is simply making money through MoolaVine plus Email. This will allow you to make money on MoolaVine while building a list as well. So not only will you be able to make money from your Vine’s purchases, but you can also capture their email addresses to promote more products to them that they will be able to buy through your affiliate offers.
This is an upsell where Bryan promotes another of his products to you, called Dual Squeeze which I have already written a review on. Bryan’s deal is to have you pay a one-time fee of $97, instead of $27 per month, to use squeeze pages created via Dual Squeeze. What you will be able to then do, is direct your sign-ups to MoolaVine.
But as I outlined in my Dual Squeeze Review, this service is overpriced. Squeeze pages can be created for WAY less money than what he is charging for it. But for a one-time upgrade of $97, I think it’s worth it, especially if you don’t have a list yet. You get to keep Dual Squeeze whether or not you choose to remain a MoolaVine member.
However, I did not go for this upgrade because I already have a list.
3) MoolaVine Traffic Co-op – $40 each
This is where Bryan explains that he has devised a way for you, the newbie, to get traffic to your MoolaVine squeeze page on autopilot. This is great if you don’t know how to get your squeeze page in front of people on the internet. Not only will this build your list (if you have purchased Dual Squeeze) but it will also to help you get as many people on your vine as possible, to maximize your earning potential.
The way this works, is that there is rotator every month, starting on the 1st of each month, where each member’s affiliate link is out in front of real people in the form of Facebook Ads, Solo Ads and Banner Ads, in sequential order. When people interacting with these ads sign up, they become part of your list and part of your vine.
You can purchase as many “shares” as you would like at $40 each, to increase your chances of having your link put in front of people and to grow your list and revenue.
I didn’t purchase this because I already can drive traffic to MoolaVine. Although the price is a little steep, I think it’s a great idea! If you have the money to invest into this AND direct tons of traffic to your squeeze page yourself, then you would expedite your first earnings.
Inside The Member’s Area
The member’s area has an introductory video that you can watch first. This video will explain in complete detail, of how the system works. I like the redundancy of the explanation by Bryan, because it shows that he is trying to make sure that you are understanding the power of the system.
The remainder of the member’s area is broken into three further sections;
1) Go Shopping – This is where you can request the products that you would have bought anyways through either ClickBank or JVzoo. In return, you will receive Green Days. For each dollar that you spend, you receive a Green day.
So, spend $20 dollars, and you will receive 20 green days. 20 days within which, you will be able be able to make money off the people you refer to your vine.
This comes with a tutorial video to show you exactly how to use the tool.
2) Make Money – This is where you are asked to link your ClickBank ID. Yes, you do need to have an account with ClickBank to be able to use MoolaVine. But don’t worry, creating an account with ClickBank is free.
One you link up your ClickBank ID to MoolaVine, you will be able to receive requests from your vine. That’s where you will also be replying to requests with your affiliate link and where you will be able to see whether your vine member has completed the purchase.
There is also a tutorial to show you how to go about putting everything in place.
3) Grow Your Vine – Here, you will have access to your affiliate link to grow your vine. You will be able to use this link to refer others to MoolaVine. They will then be added to your vine and you will benefit from either their requests to buy a product, or from them upgrading to the Unlimited Green Day Plan.
You will also be able to buy “shares” to the rotator through this section, to be able to get traffic on autopilot from Ads that the MoolaVine team will be posting on your behalf.
A tutorial is also included here to help you.
Pros
– Bryan Winters is a real person, unlike many other conman and scammers on the internet that prefer to remain anonymous.
– Solutions for newbies and advanced affiliate marketers.
– Free Membership for as long as you want
– Monthly fee is affordable and reasonable for service offered
– Ability to make residual income
Cons
– Upsell #2 and 3 are a little on the steep side

– Only PAID traffic available (no FREE traffic methods taught)
– May be a little confusing for newbies at first
Is MoolaVine A Scam? – Final Thoughts
MoolaVine is absolutely legit! I am a member and I enjoy the benefits that it has to offer. I think that this is an ingenious idea. For me, as an affiliate marketer, I already need to buy products from these marketplaces (Clickbank and JVzoo) to review anyways.
By being able to receive Green Days in exchange from buying them through MoolaVine instead, not only does it help out the person who referred me, but it also helps ME make more money. On ClickBank, there are products from every single category imaginable, that convert really well. You could choose categories, such as Arts, Cooking, Health and Fitness, Parenting and many other categories that ARE high-quality.
You don’t necessarily have to be a marketer either to make money with MoolaVine though. You can sign up for free as a newbie, buy the products you were looking for anyways through the system and earn Green days, and share your affiliate link with friends and family on Facebook and Make-Money groups to gather as many people within your Vine as possible.
Then, enjoy the benefits of them either requesting to buy through your link ( or even better if you have the Unlimited Plan, enjoy $10 in commissions for each sign up you get to the Unlimited Plan itself).
I TOTALLY RECOMMEND THIS!

Hi Reyhana
I saw Moolavine on the Internet and was thinking about joining and now after reading your blog, I feel a lot safer about pursuing this platform to help market my business
You have given a truly honest and very informative review here and I am sure like it helped me it will help all who are considering using MoolaVine
Thank you so much and all the very best
Hello Vicki. Thanks for reading!
Moolavine is definitely a legit way to make money online. It motivates you as well as your referrals by giving them an incentive when they make a purchase; they would become eligible to make money themselves.
I highly recommend it!
This is all new to me. Your thorough review has opened my eyes to another potential avenue for making money online however, it does appear to have an MLM / pyramid vibe to it.
How long have you been with MoolaVine and are there other similar MMO ventures in which you currently participate?
Hello Susan and thanks for reading!
I’ve been with MoolaVine for about a month now and it definitely is not an MLM or a pyramid scheme. An MLM is where multiple levels above you get paid commissions based on your sales of a product and a pyramid is illegal, because there is no product to be sold.
This model uses affiliate marketing. The products are the ones from ClickBank and JVzoo, products that you would need to buy anyways. Instead of making your purchase through ClickBank or JVzoo directly where you have NO chance of making money, you just go through Moolavine, where you buy the products that you need. This will appoint you with GREEN DAYS depending on how much you spend. Within these GREEN DAYS, whoever of your referrals that make a purchase through MoolaVine too, will make you commissions.
Currently, I only make money through affiliate marketing, which is what MoolaVine is about. Do you have any other questions about Moolavine or affiliate marketing? I will be more than happy to assist you more. Pleas do let me know.. 🙂
This information is amazing. One point could you please elaborate a little more as on what needs to be done, as even I want to try this out, it feels really good to come across such an article, thanks a lot for sharing this information.
I just feel a little more information will be very helpful, as this is something people would want to read more on, as it sounds very interesting.
Hello Sahil. Thanks for stopping by and for reading this review.
This opportunity is good for newbies as well as for the experienced marketer to make more money. Instead of buying your clickbank or jvzoo products from these platforms directly, you want to buy them by going through MoolaVine. You would send a request to your referrer, who will then send you their affiliate link so that you can buy the product that you need and they can make money.
What this will do is reward you with GREEN DAYS based on the amount of “dollars” you spent. So if you spend $30 for a product, you will get 30 green days. The purpose of these GREEN DAYS is to allow you to make money from people who you referred as they will also want to buy the products from your affiliate link within Moolavine. They want to buy from your affiliate link because they also want those green days.
If you don’t want to keep buying products, then you can always just pay $30 per month and you will have unlimited green days.
I hope I have explained it better for your understanding this time, Sahil.. 🙂
I’m glad you specified that this is not a pyramid scheme, because that was the first thing I thought of when I read about how Moolavine works. It’s definitely an interesting idea, but maybe not one I want to invest time into at this particular moment. Thanks for sharing the information!
That was the first thing that came to my mind too, when Bryan explained the “Vine”. However, it actually uses an affiliate marketing model. It’s very interesting because it does make sense that people will want to buy from you in order to get their “Green Days”. It’s a win-win situation.
I understand that this may not be for everybody, but it’s a good one to keep in mind for the future. 🙂
Hi Reyhana
Interesting product, thanks for the in-depth review, I recently came across Bryan Winters and saw some of his other products (I think one was called My Traffic Co-op), I don’t know if this is the same as Moolavine Traffic Co-op but it did seem interesting. However, since I have a few ongoing projects, I decided to pass up and not purchase it, maybe sometime in the future. Moolavine has definitely intrigued me and I might just check out the free membership.
Hey Minhaj. Glad you found this review interesting.
Yes, one of Bryan’s other products is called My Traffic Co-op and it is similar to MoolaVine Traffic Co-op. The difference is that with My Traffic Co-op, it works similarly to the whole MoolaVine system; where instead of people buying Clickbank or JVzoo products, they will buy “shares” to get visitors to their My Traffic Co-op link to build their following. Each time a “share” is bought, the person who referred you makes some money.
With MoolaVine Traffic Co-op, you are given the option to only buy “Shares” to get traffic (through ads) to your affiliate link promoting your Vine. Your mentor does not earn anything from these shares.
Hi, Reyhana
In first I thought OMG one more big scam lol but in the end very cool I have signed up from your link and will try this out.
Thank you for writing an article about this Moolavine. this is great.
Best regards
S.A
Hey Salomon. I also thought that this was going to be a scam or a low-quality product. I tried a few of Bryan Winters’ products before and though his ideas are unique, I didn’t think that they were going to work well. MoolaVine is actually the first of his products that I actually like, after going through a few of them.
I think it’s a pretty neat idea myself… 🙂 Glad you decided to sign up and give it a try. I am loving it so far.
Thank you for this article. I had not heard of Moola Vine before so I found your information here really beneficial.
I sounds really good and worth a serious looking into.
Many thanks
Jennifer
Hey Jennifer. Thanks for dropping by.
I was very pleasantly surprised by how good this idea was as well! Not only are you helping somebody else make some money in the process of buying a product (that you would have needed and bought anyways) but you also introduce the system to others who want to make money as well.
It is definitely worth a serious looking into. It has lots of benefits and earning potential.
I have read your entire work and it is great there is a lot of good information on your site enough to make anyone successful if following your very informative information thank you
Hey Liz. Glad to hear you like my website and content.
I try my best to give as much information as I can because I know every little detail will lead to somebody making an ultimate decision.
