Is Hempworx a pyramid scheme?
Is it legit
MyDailyChoice/HempWorx is an operating company, but it has drawn documented consumer-protection and self-regulatory attention over its marketing claims:
-
Truth in Advertising (TINA.org): In an investigation first published July 11, 2018 (updated September 2018), TINA.org compiled a database of more than 100 inappropriate or illegal health claims made in connection with HempWorx products — including claims that products could treat or affect cancer, Parkinson's, multiple sclerosis, and other serious conditions — and more than 50 examples of misleading income claims. TINA.org reported that, following its investigation, HempWorx had removed 83 of the 100+ health claims and 35 of the 50+ income claims, and had suspended several distributors and terminated one [web].
-
Direct Selling Self-Regulatory Council (DSSRC / BBB National Programs), Case #9-2020 (opened January 15, 2020): Through routine monitoring, DSSRC flagged both income/incentive claims (e.g., distributor earnings screenshots and a referenced "$1,000,000 per month" potential) and product/health claims (e.g., a Facebook post claiming CBD treats conditions such as fibromyalgia, arthritis, diabetes, depression, anxiety, autism, and epilepsy). The company advised DSSRC it was removing the income and incentive claims at issue, revising cosmetic-product language, and reclassifying its "Relief" product as a cosmetic after removing drug claims. DSSRC recorded that the inquiry concluded after the company implemented the recommended changes [web].
-
Pyramid-scheme allegation (litigation): A third-party legal-marketing source describes a lawsuit alleging that MyDailyChoice operated as an illegal pyramid scheme by rewarding recruitment over genuine retail sales [web]. This is an allegation reported by a non-authoritative source, not an adjudicated finding; the case name, court, filing date, and outcome are not verified here and must be confirmed by a human reviewer before any characterization is published.
Not established / to verify: A widely cited October 2019 FTC/FDA CBD warning letter reviewed during research was addressed to a different Florida company, not to HempWorx/MyDailyChoice. Whether HempWorx or MyDailyChoice itself received a direct FDA or FTC warning letter was not confirmed in the sources reviewed and should not be stated without a primary citation.
What is Hempworx?
Overview
HempWorx is a hemp/CBD product brand operated by MyDailyChoice, Inc., a Las Vegas, Nevada-based direct-selling (multi-level marketing) company. MyDailyChoice was founded in 2014 by Josh and Jenna Zwagil, and the HempWorx brand launched in May 2017, adding CBD oil to a lineup that previously centered on oral nutritional sprays [web]. The company sells its products through a network of independent affiliates rather than through retail stores.
The HempWorx range includes hemp-derived CBD oils, topicals and creams, and other consumer wellness items; MyDailyChoice as a whole markets hemp-based products, CBD oil, oral nutritional sprays, and bath-and-body items [web]. Trade press reported rapid early growth for the brand in its first years, though specific revenue figures are not publicly documented in primary or official sources [web].
MyDailyChoice/HempWorx has been the subject of consumer-protection and self-regulatory scrutiny over the health and income claims made in connection with its products and business opportunity (see "Is it legit") [web].

How it worksThe day-to-day reality of participating
How it works
HempWorx products are distributed through MyDailyChoice's direct-selling model. Participants enroll as independent "affiliates" who can buy products at a discount, sell them to retail customers, and recruit other affiliates into their organization [web].
According to affiliate-facing materials, affiliates earn a retail margin on products sold to customers and additional commissions based on the sales volume generated within their downline organization [web]. The company has described itself as offering the same opportunity to lower ranks as to higher ranks [web].
Note: the precise current mechanics (enrollment steps, autoship/subscription requirements, and volume qualifications) should be verified against MyDailyChoice's own current policies and procedures before publishing, as third-party descriptions vary and may be dated.
What it costs to join
Cost to join
Exact, current start-up costs are not reliably documented in the authoritative sources reviewed here and should be verified against MyDailyChoice's official enrollment materials before publishing.
Third-party affiliate/review pages describe enrollment as involving the selection of a starter product "pack" (with reported package tiers spanning a range of prices) plus a nominal affiliate fee, while also stating there is no separate mandatory renewal fee and no inventory-stocking requirement [web]. These figures come from non-official affiliate-marketing sources, vary between them, and are not confirmed against the company's current published pricing, so specific dollar amounts are treated as unverified third-party claims and omitted. A human reviewer should source exact joining fees, kit prices, and any monthly volume/autoship minimums directly from MyDailyChoice.
How you'd make moneyThe compensation plan explained
Compensation
HempWorx/MyDailyChoice uses a network-marketing compensation structure in which affiliates can earn from (1) retail margin on products sold to customers and (2) commissions and bonuses tied to downline sales volume and rank advancement [web]. Third-party affiliate and review sources describe the plan as a binary structure paying commissions on Business Volume, with retail commissions on personally sold products and additional rank-based bonuses [web].
Specific percentages, payout caps, level depth, and rank thresholds reported on affiliate/review blogs vary between sources and are not confirmed here against an official current plan document, so exact figures are omitted as unverified. The company's own income disclosures and the DSSRC record indicate that income and "earning potential" claims circulated by distributors (for example, a referenced "$1,000,000 per month" figure) were flagged by regulators and subsequently removed [web].
HempWorx's own Policies and Procedures, as quoted by Truth in Advertising, acknowledged that most distributors "earn less money each month in the compensation plan than they are paying for their products" [web].

Who it's for
Based on the documented model and costs, HempWorx/MyDailyChoice may be considered by people who genuinely use and want to resell hemp/CBD wellness products and are comfortable with a direct-selling, recruitment-linked business model.
Prospective participants should weigh the documented record before deciding: the company's own Policies and Procedures acknowledged that most distributors earn less each month in the compensation plan than they pay for their products [web], and both TINA.org and DSSRC documented misleading health and income claims that the company later curtailed [web]. Anyone considering it should independently verify current start-up and ongoing costs, read the official income disclosure statement, and avoid relying on any health-benefit or earnings claims that are not substantiated by the company's official, compliant materials.
It is likely a poor fit for anyone seeking guaranteed income, anyone uncomfortable with recruitment-based compensation, or anyone expecting medically substantiated treatment claims for CBD products.
Frequently asked
Is this opportunity verified?
This opportunity is not formally verified. In plain terms it’s listed as unverified—a label in our records, not a seal of approval from regulators. Before you send money or sign, line up recruiter promises against official filings and documents you can verify yourself.
How does this opportunity work?
To walk through mechanics step by step, you’ll need the company’s own compensation plan and product terms—we don’t have enough on this profile to do that fairly. Read those documents cover to cover, then compare to what you’re hearing in recruitment.
What are the risks?
We haven’t set a risk band on this listing yet. Until you’ve read the company’s risk factors and filings, assume outcomes are wide open—not “average” or “typical.”
Can you actually earn?
Some people do well; many don’t. Income tracks the comp plan, your effort, and market realities—not marketing examples. Ignore leaderboard screenshots as proof of what you’ll earn; they’re single cases with different costs and timing than yours.
