    The number that moves

    97% of people who test are out of balance. The target is 3:1.

    Most people run 15:1, 20:1, sometimes higher on omega-6 to omega-3. Then you retest, and the number either moved or it didn't.

    Seventeen ranks

    Retail profit and a Cash Bonus from the first sale, 10% rising to 30%. Q-Team at four customers, X-Team at ten, A-Team at twenty-five. Every figure here is the company's own illustrative monthly number, not a promise.

      The streams, as the plan names them

      Fast Start Bonuses, Team Commission, Mentor Matching, and more as you climb.

      Team Commission pays 10–15% weekly on combined volume across two teams, held to a 2:1 balance. From President, bonuses are paid in company shares.

      Source 12-n1Read in full →

      Converted to your own currency

      Commissions are calculated in Pay Points, then converted to local currency.

      Zinzino pays about 50% of its revenue back to partners as commissions, and runs roughly 20 to 25 customers for every partner: a customer-led business, which is what a healthy direct-sales company looks like.

      Chapter six · Is this for you

      Who it fits

      It suits people who can give it 120 days and build steadily.

      Read in full →

      Is this for you

      It fits if

      • You can be patient for 120 days
      • You want proof you can check yourself
      • You're building for more than one country
      • You'd rather have room than a full market

      What it asks of you

      • About 120 days of patience
      • Taking the test yourself first
      • Building customers, not just a team
      • Showing up consistently

      A small market with room beats a full one, if that's how you think. It also means taking the test yourself and showing your own numbers. If that sounds like you, let's talk.

      Saturated? Stock? Halal?

      Malaysia: 12,609 tests. Germany: 334,917. No stocking product. Halal-Control certified.

      Registering as a partner is free, and most people start alongside a job. BalanceOil+ carries Halal-Control certification, and the Malaysia webshop states what that covers.

      The opening is here

      Asia-Pacific is 8.5% of revenue and grew 254% in 2025. The region is early, and its hub is in Kuala Lumpur.

      Results take 120 days: the retest is the proof. Commissions are calculated in Pay Points and paid in your own currency. The markets that are wide open are open because nobody has built them yet.

      The listing, the reports, the test map, the plan document. All public, all linked.

      Your move

      Nothing here asked you to decide anything. That hasn't changed.

      I'm an independent Zinzino partner. I'd rather you see it for yourself than take my word, which is why every figure above carries a source. So what would you need to see with your own eyes before it's worth a proper conversation?
