Got Backup launched about a year ago and falls under Joel Therien’s Global Virtual Opportunities (GVO) umbrella.

GVO was launched back in 2009, with BehindMLM reviewing their
HostThenProfit
opportunity back in 2011. A few months later we looked at
7 Minute Workout
, a fitness orientated GVO offering.

The latest GVO-branded opportunity we reviewed was
Pure Leverage
back in 2013.

Pure Leverage rebranded GVO’s marketing tools and a blogging platform, and combined it with a “100% commissions” compensation plan.

The Pure Leverage website is still up today, but Alexa traffic statistics suggest a sharp decline in activity over the past twelve months.

Read on for a full review of the Got Backup MLM business opportunity.

Got Backup’s Products

Got Backup offer a cloud-based backup service:

Personal Backup ($1 and then $7.99 or $8.99 a month) – unlimited cloud backup for one device

Family Plan ($1 and then $12.99 or $14.99 a month) – unlimited cloud backup for five devices

Backup & Share ($1 and then $11.99 or $13.99 a month) – unlimited backup for one device plus 500 GB of data syncing with other devices (100 GB of extra sync data is $6)

Not that the more expensive monthly fee is if a user pays per month. The cheaper fee is charged on a 12 month contract.

Unfortunately Got Backup’s service doesn’t appear to be available at a retail level. A promotional video on the Got Backup website advises that affiliates can “get started today for just $1”:

This ties in with the $1 fee charged on all Got Backup plans, suggesting that they are only sold bundled with the Got Backup affiliate membership.

Got Backup’s Compensation Plan

Commissions in Got Backup are paid out via a unilevel compensation structure.

A unilevel compensation structure places an affiliate at the top of a unilevel team, with every personally recruited affiliate placed directly under them (level 1):

If any affiliates on level 1 recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 2 of the original affiliate’s unilevel team.

If any level 2 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 3 and so on and so forth down a theoretical infinite number of levels.

Commissions paid out are a percentage of earnings generated by an affiliate’s unilevel team, paid out at a rate of 50% scaled upwards.

At the bottom of any unilevel leg you have an affiliate at the lowest level of that leg.

They earn $x, with their upline paid a 50% match bonus of that. In turn, their upline is paid a 50% match bonus of their match.

Their upline is paid a 50% match bonus of that bonus, and so on and so forth right up to the affiliate at the top of the unilevel team.

Here’s another way of explaining it, using a simple 4 level deep unilevel leg and any given month.

The affiliate on level 4 made $100 in personal commissions. They don’t make a matching bonus because there are no affiliates below them (yet).

The affiliate on level 3 made $500 in personal sales commissions, so their total commission
