Neobux started its pre-launch / pre-registration phase on March 25, 2008. At the beginning people could only invite referrals and communicate on the forum. Those who registered during the pre-launch phase got Pioneer status. The official opening was on April 30, 2008.
A short summary of how Neobux developed early on in 2008:
- March 31, 2008 - The option to buy clicks for your advertisements and the ability to upgrade to Golden Membership was added. The price for Golden Membership in the pre-launch phase was $30.
- April 8, 2008 - A poll was generated and requested Neobux users to vote. Over 90% of users said "YES" to increase the minimum to cashout by $1 with each cashout requested (up to $10). The poll was closed on 12 April and the rule was implemented.
- April 17, 2008 - There were already 19054 members on Neobux and 75 confirmed Golden Members.
- April 19, 2008 - Admin had announced that Neobux will offer instant cashouts (it was stated in the TOS before that it will take up to 48 hours to receive payments).
- April 30, 2008 - Neobux.com officially opened on April, 30 20:00 GMT.
- May 3, 2008 - The option of renting referrals was added. The Rent-A-Ref System revolutionised the PTC Industry along with Instant Payments. The Golden upgrade price increased to $60.
- May 17, 2008 - Admin added a red dot for people to click when clicking on their advertisements, as there were a lot of members using autoclickers.
On 8 October 2008 Neobux's Paypal Account was limited . Members were asked to donate funds and eventually Paypal was reinstated. Neobux still continues to provide instant payments to this day.
