Practically Explained!!!
Ultimate Cycler – How does it work?

The normal way it works is
You register under a person,
The system automatically pairs you with someone you will have to pay $25 (N12500) to
First you have to contact the person
Make arrangement and notify him or her
You only have 48hours to pay
After paying call or notify him or her to confirm payment
After confirmation you will now be able to access the platform fully…


So How do I get paid?

Here is how…

You will be given a referral link…

Is there a bonus from referring people?

No… There isn’t

So why do I have to refer people?

Referring people only makes the process faster which means you can quickly get N50000 within 2 days while the normal wait is like 2 week or so…

Hmmm… Which means I have to refer people right?

Not necessary

You can also speed up the process by joining an active team
like ours using this link:

https:///2SqCWhNnCREBnfRlqg72Y2




There is a term called “Spill over”

When people keep joining your team, people will be quickly assigned to you to receive payment…


You have questions, enquires, contribution concerning this:

09095445969

You don’t need to evangelize or stress yourself, although you can bring in people using our group link:
