The self-hosted tracker adult media buyers keep paying for: $149/month flat, 260M clicks/day on one box, 2-minute support - but the 10% referral program will not cover your server bill.
BeMob Review & 4 Alternatives (2026)
Verdict
Yes, as a first tracker: the free plan's 100,000 events/month costs nothing and teaches you the trade. But data retention is 1 month, custom domains start at the $249/mo Business tier, and the terms technically prohibit adult content - so treat it as a starter, not a home.

What works
- Free plan with 100,000 events/month, 10 campaigns and 3 traffic sources, indefinitely - still the cheapest way to learn campaign tracking
- Referral program is 10% lifetime on referred users' payments with a 30-day cookie, and registered referrals are tied to your account permanently
- Cookieless and no-redirect tracking modes for Facebook, Google and Bing, postbacks, bot filtering and API traffic-source integrations on a platform running since 2015
- Overage pricing on paid tiers is published ($0.05 per 1K events on Professional, $0.02 on Enterprise) - no surprise invoices
What doesn’t
- Terms of service (Section 7) explicitly prohibit posting 'adult or pornographic Content' - adult campaign use rides on tolerance, not written policy
- 1-month data retention on both Free and Professional plans; 3 months and the first tracking/cloaking domains only arrive on the $249/mo Business tier
- Referral payouts are manual: $100 threshold, requested through support chat or email, PayPal or WebMoney only, no published payout schedule and no sub-ID tracking
- Forum threads document visit discrepancies against traffic-source counts and parameters dropping on multi-step funnels
What BeMob actually is
BeMob is a cloud-hosted ad tracker operated by BeMob, Inc. in the United States, live since 2015. You route pop, push, native or banner clicks through it; it logs the visit, splits traffic by rules, fires postbacks to your traffic source and gives you the standard drill-down reports. The reason it turns up in every beginner thread on the webmaster forums is the free plan: 100,000 events a month, 10 campaigns, 10 offers, 5 landing pages and 3 traffic sources, at zero cost, indefinitely. Hit the cap and traffic through your links simply stops until you upgrade - blunt, but more honest than a surprise overage invoice. The platform claims 10ms redirects and ships cookieless and no-redirect tracking modes for Facebook, Google and Bing, bot filtering, multi-user workspaces and API-integrated traffic sources. A competent mid-market tracker whose free tier does all the marketing.
The referral program and how you get paid
The referral program pays 10% of all payments made by users you refer who join a paid plan. Attribution is the good kind: a 30-day cookie on the click, and once someone registers they are permanently tied to your account, so the 10% runs for the life of the customer. The operational side is where it thins out. Rewards accumulate until you cross a $100 threshold, and then you request a payout by contacting support through live chat or email - there is no self-serve withdrawal and no published payout schedule. Money lands on PayPal or WebMoney; no wire, no Paxum, no crypto. Sub-ID tracking on referral links is not published, so attributing sign-ups to individual pages of your site is guesswork. Run the arithmetic: 10% of a $49/mo Professional subscriber is $4.90 a month, so you need roughly seven active paying referrals just to clear the threshold once a quarter. Lifetime duration compounds if your referrals stick, but nobody is retiring on this.
Plans, tracking and the two catches
Paid tiers are $49/mo Professional (1M events), $249/mo Business (10M) and $499/mo Enterprise (30M), with published overage of $0.05, $0.025 and $0.02 per 1,000 events respectively - transparent, which I will take over mystery billing any day. Two catches matter more than the headline prices. First, data retention is 1 month on both Free and Professional, 3 months on Business and 6 on Enterprise: on the plans most affiliates actually buy, last quarter's data does not exist, so export reports religiously or lose them. Second, per the current pricing table, tracking and cloaking domains are zero until the Business tier - Free and Professional run on shared BeMob domains, which is precisely the kind of footprint that ad-network compliance filters and Google Ads have flagged in forum reports. The tracking itself is standard and solid: custom conversion event types, postback URLs, rule-based traffic distribution, cookieless direct tracking. affLIFT threads document visit-count discrepancies against PopAds and parameters dropping on multi-step funnels - par for the course with redirect trackers, but real.
Support, reliability and the adult-content clause
Support is live chat and email. Trustpilot is positive but statistically meaningless at 13 reviews; third-party write-ups praise the staff while noting chat responses can be slow and there is no visible chat history. affLIFT has at least one complaint of a rep leaving a conversation unresolved. On the reliability side, the platform has operated since 2015 with no payment-scandal trail I could find, which counts for something in this corner of the industry. The structural problem for this audience sits in Section 7 of the terms and conditions, which prohibits users from posting 'adult or pornographic Content.' Plenty of adult media buyers run BeMob anyway and accounts are not visibly purged for it, but the paper says your account exists at the operator's discretion. If your campaign data, landers and whitelists are business-critical, a tracker that tolerates you is not the same as one that wants you.
Who should sign up
Sign up if you are new to media buying and want to learn campaign structure, postbacks and split-testing without spending a dollar: 100,000 free events a month is enough to run real test campaigns on pop or push traffic, and the interface will not fight you. It also works as a secondary or backup tracker for verifying numbers from your primary. Think harder if you are scaling adult campaigns seriously: the 1-month retention on plans under $249/mo, the shared-domain situation below Business tier, and the adult-content clause in the terms all argue for graduating to a self-hosted or openly adult-tolerant tracker once your spend justifies it. As a referral earner for your webmaster site, list it for completeness: 10% lifetime is a fair structure, but the $100 manual-payout threshold via support chat and PayPal/WebMoney-only payments make it a slow drip, not a revenue line.
Verdict
BeMob earns its place as the default first tracker: 100,000 free events a month, sane paid pricing with published overages, and a feature set that covers everything a beginner needs. It loses points on 1-month retention, no domains below $249/mo, and a terms-of-service clause that technically bans the very content this audience runs. Use it to learn, keep your exports, and plan your graduation - the 10% lifetime referral program is a fair tip jar, not a business.

FAQ
Is BeMob really free?
Yes - the free plan includes 100,000 events per month, 10 campaigns, 10 offers, 5 landing pages and 3 traffic sources, with no time limit. If you exceed the event cap, traffic through your tracking links stops until you upgrade; there are no overage charges on the free tier.
Does BeMob allow adult campaigns?
Officially, no: Section 7 of BeMob's terms and conditions prohibits posting 'adult or pornographic Content.' In practice adult affiliates use it widely and accounts are not visibly purged for it, but you are operating on tolerance rather than written policy - keep exports and a migration plan.
Does BeMob have a referral program?
Yes. It pays 10% of all payments from users you refer who join a paid plan, for the lifetime of the customer, with a 30-day cookie and permanent attribution after registration. Payouts are manual: you request them from support once your balance reaches $100, paid via PayPal or WebMoney. No payout schedule is published.
What is the catch with BeMob's data retention?
Campaign data is kept for only 1 month on the Free and Professional ($49/mo) plans, 3 months on Business ($249/mo) and 6 months on Enterprise ($499/mo). Export your reports before they age out if you need historical comparisons.
Alternatives to BeMob
The most adult-integrated of the big cloud trackers, but at $119/mo billed annually it is a tool you buy, not a program you earn from - the referral side caps out at $105 per user.
€49/month flat for unlimited clicks on your own server - the CIS scene's default tracker. The 10% two-year referral is pocket money; the security-vendor headlines are the asterisk.
Quietly adult-tolerant cloud tracking at $149/mo with an uncapped 10% lifetime referral kicker - solid pipes, shame about the support queue.
