JokaBux is a buxhost site that has been online and paying for over 6 months. Site will be added to the Legit List however we would recommend that you test the site fully before investing into it. Here are the pros and cons of this site:


PROS:


1. Forum - Not exactly a forum but you can find their forum link goes to facebook. Forums are great for communication between members and staff. Members can post payment proofs, get support, and stay up to date on changes made to the site.

2. Paying - They are paying and payment proofs can be found on the forum and throughout the web. Here are a few places where you can view these proofs:

3. All Countries Accepted - So far there are no restrictions and all can join and earn from this site. Will update if this changes.


4. Instant Payments - A great option for any site to have. No more waiting days or weeks for something you rightfully earned.

CONS:

1. New Site - We do not recommend investing or buying upgrades on new sites. For at least 6 months, if not a year. If you can't wait that long, at least test and get paid first before you decide to invest.

The main reason why we see this as a downside is due to the large number of new sites that go through many sudden changes during their first 6 months. Changes anywhere from rates per click, payment processor issues (paypal limitations), and payment wait times. New sites notorious for changing their terms. Why we do not recommend investing on new sites. 
2. A "Bux" Site - This type of ptc has a very high fail rate. Most "bux" sites go scam under 6 months, if not within a year. Most rely on upgrades and rental purchases rather than actual advertisers. A typical "bux" site will show fixed/self-sponsored ads, sell rentals, and have a higher rate per click. This type of business model is not very successful and unsustainable, which is probably why most "bux" sites fail.

3. BuxHost/NextGen Site - One of the easiest host to purchase a ptc site. Anyone with $25 can open up a site. Makes it very easy for scammers to open a site. There are a few that are honest and actually trying, however most go scam. If you don't know what a buxhost site is, look at the footer of the PTC site. More info on Buxhost sites:
