More customization and better ability to test

Proof of buying to increase my conversions on my pages. Easy and not an annoying way to prove this.

"Not user friendly"

The concept. It is a good idea but just seemed to have to many steps to make it work and was not clear what needed to be done in which order

Took me forever to install and a long time to get hold of customer service. However when I did get hold of them they were very helpful.

I unsubscribed a while ago and yet I am still getting emails and notifications form them

I was looking for social proof during a time when I knew I was going to get a lot of traffic on my blog. But with the amount of time to took to get going I missed my window

Totally Dishonest Company Practices

As a publisher with Fomo, I used them for about 4 months to evaluate monetizing a decent-sized website with a consistent number of monthly visitors. Fomo claims they're "honest" - they actually have this everywhere in their marketing pages, but they're nothing but a dishonest private company just trying to make a buck off of their advertisers.

Their initial setup seemed great - within the first month I'd made more in one month with Fomo than I'd make in one month with Google Adsense. The second month was lower, which was odd because the ads did not change and they showed up at the same frequency. The third month was almost rock-bottom in payments despite the same number of ads were shown on the site. Eventually I figured out that Fomo would claim to show "0 ad views" in their dashboard within a given time period, while simultaneously showing ads on the site at a regular rate.

Do not trust Fomo. Websites that need to monetize, even when small, are better off sticking with Google Adsense and being patient rather than use these scam artists.

Very Dishonest & Fraudulent Behaviour

Our company had been evaluating fomo.com for a first time in November 2018 using a free trial. Back then, we did not have time for an implementation, so we decided not to subscribe.

Now in March 2019, we decided to re-evaluate the software. The sign-up processes prompts you to "Start a 14 day free trial" and also clearly states "You won’t be charged during your free trial.".

However, Fomo.com decided to charge our card right away without any free trial. This is a bit strange, if you are prompted to enter your credit card details for a free trial, but end up being charged right away?

Normally this shouldn't be an issue. SAAS service providers are in the business of building valuable customer relationships and enticing word-of-mouth, right?

Not so with Fomo.com. When nicely asked, the support-time states that "We do not make exceptions to our Terms of Service as this would be unfair to our other customers, the majority of which are paying via company card. If you submit a chargeback we will respond in a timely manner via Stripe."

Those business practices are very concerning, and we will stay away from this company in the future, and will have to go through the administrative effort of doing a credit card charge back via our bank.
