I was introduced to Helping Hands International by another network marketer who insisted that I should take a look at their innovative compensation plan.
There is an announcement on their homepage about an upgraded version of the software.Moreover, they mention that the company is in transition mode and that they will change their plan and website by the end of September.
Now I don’t know if they did proceed with those changes because it is the first time for me to visit their website on October 8.
What is H2i?
I will mention some of their headlines before we dive deeper
..”Help us to help others”..”Save the world”…”Our charity helps those people who have no hope”…”Make a change who can affect millions”…”Donate us”…
As we can clearly see this is a charity organization but not a simple one.
According to the about us page Helping Hands International, aka H2i, is an empowerment-based membership program, a global community born out of the passion for total human capacity development and for helping the less privileged.
You can co-operate with H2i to empower yourself and people around you.They suggest that you introduce the company to your friends and family and to welcome them to a world of endless possibilities.
Founder and CEO of H2i is Mrs. Luzviminda Mac-Elvis.She believes that irrespective of background, location or education, anyone can achieve his dreams.All humans need is a helping hand.
And with H2i, her vision is to help people that are in need.So she needs our help to help the weak communities.

H2i Services
Humanitarian Services
H2i renders help and services that touch and empower lives of members and non-members (less privileged, window, motherless homes and the needy).They want to help people live a better lifestyle, get out of poverty, lack and want.
At some point (that I will analyze later in this review), members will be required to recommend 2 persons from their community and neighborhood to H2i for lifetime empowerment.Motherless and disabled homes will be reviewed by H2i visits.
Trade and Skill Acquisition
As they believe in human capital development their members should acquire additional skills or learn a trade and they will make sure that you have all the resources required.
At advanced stages, members can acknowledge their interest in the organization and H2i will discuss with them where to lean and which trade or skill to acquire.
The stage 3 (super master) position for members is all they need to enjoy that service which is offered free of charge.
Now I don’t understand who is teaching the members and what kind of education they get, H2i is not revealing any information on that matter.
Asset and Property Support
Members on Stage 4 and above can be helped by H2i to buy brand new cars, home appliances or properties.
H2i will contribute 70% of the costs (members the rest 30%).The 70% should be paid off in the next 12 months to H2i.There is no interest, no collateral.
Financial Empowerment
Do you have any financial challenge?…is your business suffering because of lack of money?…you want to set up a new business or expand an existing one?…
H2i can help and empower your business by providing interest-free microloans (business and elite club members loans).
Scholarship Award
The award aims to promote academic excellence and improve skills base among orphans and the less privileged in our society.
H2i helps you by giving a scholarship from the first year to when you graduate.
3 categories of scholarship
An educational fund for members children.At Prime Minister stage $2000 is automatically paid to the member.
Scholarship for orphans.A board of trustee members is required to visit an orphanage in their neighborhood and recommend 2 orphans yearly from different homes.
Scholarship for religious people.Trustee members are encouraged to recommend 2 less privileged persons yearly from any religious gathering, churches or mosques.Upon approval of H2i, these people will be helped to payout their education fees/tuition.
Compensation Plan
H2i says ..”incredible, unbeatable and highly profitable marketing plan, designed by promoters for promoters.”
A forced 2 X 2 and 2 X 5 matrix where every member is required to refer 2 members each.Every additional sign ups (referrals) will cause a spillover making the matrix to fill faster.
It is a follow me matrix with spill over and spill under effect.
There is only one-time payment fee, set to $40 and members earn in 5 different stages.As they progress from stage to stage they get rewards and bonuses.
The comp plan consists of 5 stages of payment
- Stage 1 – 2 X 2 feeder matrix , 6 positions
- Stage 2 – 2 X 5 matrix , 62 positions
- Stage 3 – 2 X 5 matrix , 62 positions
- Stage 4 – 2 X 5 matrix , 62 positions
- Stage 5 – 2 X 2 , 6 positions
- Stage 1 – Associate
- Stage 2 – Master
- Stage 3 – Super Master
- Stage 4 – Minister
- Stage 5 – Prime Minister
Every member gets a bonus of $8 for referring new members.The 20% of the $40 initial fee. And every member starts their own matrix occupying the top position, even if they are part of their upline’s matrix.
- Stage 1 Matrix filled bonus = $10.
- Stage 2 Matrix bonus = $1000.Additional incentives are a laptop , a cug phone.
- Stage 3 Matrix bonus = $3000.Additional incentives are a brand new Huyndai – $10000 , empowerment on 2 people on recommendation ($1000 each = $2000).And a 5% matching bonus to uplink = $150.
- Stage 4 Matrix bonus = $6000.A matching bonus of 5% of the uplink =$300 is paid automatically.Additional incentives are an executive car (Hyundai Jeep = $27000+), empowerment for 1 motherless home, an interest-free loan (up to $12000) upon request.
- Stage 5 Matrix bonus =$12000 paid in 2 levels.And a 5% matching bonus =$500 paid to uplink,Additional incentives are housing fund ($40000) , all expenses paid international trip (to where?) , educational fund ($2000) , yearly infinity bonus ($5000) , elite club members loan (up to $44000).
If we examine the matrices to get the maximum of referrals we have
Stage 1 = 6 … Stage 2 = 62 … Stage 3 = 62 … Stage 4 = 62 … Stage 5 = 6…A grand total of 6+62+62+62+6=198 members.
Moreover, there are special instructions beyond the Prime Minister level, which you can re-enter with a $500 fee and earn more bonuses.And there is the Board of Trustee which you can study for yourself.It exceeds this review purpose.

How it Works
You are required to refer at least 2 persons to be qualified for earnings and these 2 referred members by you will have to do the same, to bring in 2 persons each.
The initial one time fee of $40 is non-refundable, it is a donation for the vision and operation of the company.
Any member can have multiple accounts directly to their names, but they have to refer at least 2 persons in each account to start earning.

Final Words
This is an MLM opportunity with no retail products.You can market and sell only the membership.
The initial fee is very affordable and with $40 you can qualify for a business opportunity without having to worry about monthly fees that suck your energy and stress you all the way.
But there are some questions that arise based on the structure of the company and the lack of crucial information.
Let’s examine a few of them
For example the Stage 1 matrix of the comp plan gets filled with 6 persons under you.If you had referred all 6 you will get paid 6 X $8 = $48 plus the stage bonus of $10 making it up to $58.H2i gets 7 X $40 – 20% = 280 – 56 = 224.
You have referred 6 people and you are in profit $18 dollars.How much time will you need to refer 6 people to an MLM business plan?…and get paid only $58 dollars?
Now let’s examine the Stage 2.
Your 6 referrals from the associate stage 1 fill their matrix and they follow you to the stage 2 matrix.
The 2 X 5 matrix gets filled with 62 persons under you.H2i gets 62 X $40 = $2480 – 20% = 2480 – 496 = 1984.They will give you a bonus of $1000 plus the incentives (laptop , phone).
Are there any money left for the less privileged?…The one time $40 payments are enough for H2i to provide loans without collateral and interest and furthermore to fund educational expenses and give all these gifts?..
It is not stated when the charities are taken place.They say that when you reach the Stage 3 you are required to recommend 2 persons for lifetime empowerment.
How exactly are they going to help those people in need?…What is lifetime empowerment after all?..upon analyzing the stages they speak about $1000 per less privileged person.
Do they only wait for someone to reach the Stage 3 as a requirement to help those people?
When you complete the Stage 4 they can offer an interest-free loan of $12000…But when you complete that stage you have already been gifted 2 cars (1 Hyundai of $10000 at Stage 2 plus the Jeep of $27000+) and the bonuses of $3000 + $6000.
So, if I understand the details correctly H2i will give you all these money, 2 cars, laptop and the rest of matching bonuses and the loan….but would you need a loan with all these money in pocket?…and why to get in the trouble of paying off the loan in the next 12 months? … can’t you wait 12 months by referring more people and enjoying the bonuses?
So where all the money come from?…from those that paid the initial $40 but did not manage to refer others and lost that money?…are there any other external funding resources?
In their FAQ section, they mention that the Prime Minister level (last one) can be easily achieved within 3 or fewer months.Have you ever met a network marketer recruiting others like that?
They do not mention anything about promotional tools or training material.Are they offering their members websites (even with an H2i subdomain).? … are you left alone to promote the opportunity your way?
Last but not least I was expecting to find image galleries and videos.H2i members proudly proceeding with charities, presenting the bonuses and the cars, I mean seeing them in action.But there is nothing on their website and their Facebook fan page seems like abandoned.A few sporadic comments don’t fit with the size of this organization.
I feel that the website is created for the main purpose of promoting the MLM opportunity.The charity and other gifting actions are only mentioned now and then, with the MLM business plan take over 90% of the whole content.
I don’t know, I can not answer these questions by myself … but in any case, I would advise that you won’t take any loan.If you manage to complete the stages and you get the bonuses on hand there is simply no need to get involved in such an undesirable process.
Contact a specialized in economics lawyer to help you understand the comp plan and the details.
Can you help me answer these questions?…Have you any experience with this company?…Then I would like to hear from you.

Welcome John, I believe it would be better for everyone if you provided more information about H2i here, instead of publishing your phone numbers and affiliate links. Do not try to recruit people using video or pictures, this is not a serious piece of evidence. People want to be educated first. What makes H2i so great?…is it a genuine MLM selling products?

Is H2i real and are they registered??
Welcome Sydney
The domain helpinghandsinternational.biz was created on October 2013. The name Stephen Chukwu appears as the registrant. He refers to his organization “Galaxyworld Technologies” and this man’s name reveals many people on LinkedIn under the same name. On LinkedIn the man under that name and owner of the Galaxy World global resources, which should be the same company, appears with no photo on his profile. The address mentioned in the whois database, did not reveal any information about that location.
GalaxyWorld Technologies seem like a “ghost” company as well. No information and activity online.
I could not find the H2i company registered with any MLM association, nor in the BBB or the FTC listings.
I hope that helps a bit!

Stage 2 to Stage 3
From you to leave stage three, all 62 members must have filled their 62 members making it 62*62 people
Same for Stage 3 to Stage 4 and 4 to Stage 5
Meaning 62*62*40 dollars for those stages
That is
Stage 2 will consume 62*62*40
Stage 3 will consume 62*62*40
Stage 4 will consume 62*62*40
Its incredible
