A warning to publishers and businesses about NO-BS Marketplace. Don’t expect to be paid or to have your links posted. Over the past few months, I’ve never encountered quite so much BS as I have, working with the NO-BS Marketplace.
I have had companies not pay for sponsored posts before, but never to this extent. They have orders that go back four months, all unpaid.
Too Much BS at the NO-BS Marketplace
After working with the NO BS Marketplace with no issues since 2022 (4 years!) suddenly, the payments stopped coming in on time.
I started getting “payment confirmation” e-mails. But no actual payment. And several “Thank you for your approval. We’ll now endorse this for payment,” messages.
I have sent several follow-up e-mails in the past four months. At first, I got responses assuring me the payment would go through. Now I have gotten no reply for a couple of weeks. It seems they have given up.
I’m currently in the process of removing all the unpaid guest posts, which is a pain in the butt for me. But I’m tired of dealing with this and totally writing them off.
And I felt like other publishers and businesses should be warned before taking any work through the NO BS Marketplace or placing any orders on their website.
How Do You Know if a Company is Good to Work With?
It’s hard to know what you might be getting when working with a new company. Usually, you can tell by reading reviews, but if you look at NO BS Marketplace, their website looks extremely trustworthy and includes many great reviews.
It also has a whole section of companies they are apparently “trusted by.”
So never take a website on face value. Always Google them. When you find reviews that are not on their website, those are going to be a bit more trustworthy.
A quick check on TrustPilot shows that I am not the only one who has not been getting paid: NO-BS Marketplace Reviews | Read Customer Service Reviews of nobsmarketplace.com
The reviews like that, go on. Even the decent reviews mention a delay in getting paid.
So, heed the warnings of those who have been burned. Because there is a whole heaping bunch of BS involved in that so-called NO-BS Marketplace.
Update 4/21/2026: I still have not been paid, and I removed all their blog posts. They also have not replied to any of my e-mails. However, they are still sending me work! Don’t waste your time on this company.

I heard that their CEO Peter Beukering and Christopher Soper are not paying their staff
Well they’re not paying their publishers either. I still haven’t been paid, or gotten a response.
Poor NOBS! What happened to the brothers? I used their services not long ago for years and everything was smooth, I even loved their Support Team! Sad to see these reviews, I wonder if they are aware.
I worked for NOBS for years with no problem as well. Then it just went all downhill.
Looks like the brothers are out. Saw new names on their Org Chart. Maybe that is why. Sorry to hear about your experience Candy.
Wait, what? I currently have ongoing placements with them right now, so this is really disturbing to see. Is this actually real? If publishers and even staff aren’t being paid, then the owners and CEO need to address this and be held accountable. Especially when payments are taken upfront before orders are even placed. This is honestly insane.
Yes, it’s very real. I was never paid for 5 orders. And they continue to send me articles to publish! When I reply back letting them know they never paid me, there is no response.
No way! I used to have orders with them before and things were smooth back then. But seeing this and the other reviews lately is really worrying. Someone from their leadership team should really step in and explain what’s going on.
All the BS started when the company had a new management, Peter Beukering and Christopher Soper. You’ll actually see a lot of reviews online about them not paying their publishers for 4+ months and their staff too. There’s something shady going on with those two.
This is gut-wrenching to read. Payments are collected, orders are placed, and then publishers are left in the dark with no accountability whatsoever? That’s an extremely serious problem.
Yes! It’s terrible.
Check out the LinkedIn page of their CEO Peter Beukering, he changed his bio to “CEO of Reachmark”, previously “CEO of NO-BS Marketplace.” Reachmark Inc. is the parent company of NO-BS. NOBS is just a brand under Reachmark. Such audacity to run away from accountability and responsibility should not be tolerated.
NO-BS is a huge scam. Imagine how devastated their employees and other publishers.
As I have observed, NO-BS is actively posting on LinkedIn and as far as i know, their CEO is the one making posts (probably looking for other businesses to scam).
You said it! He was scamming a lot of stakeholders here. He needs to settle what he owes especially to those employees who worked hard to build the Company’s name. Peter just ruined it after he took the CEO role. Very incompetent!
Don’t ever try working with NOBS Marketplace or with Peter Beukering and Christopher Soper. Payments are delayed for weeks or even months, and there has been very little communication or transparency regarding the situation. They are not human.
Some of the employees are now blocked from the company group chat from being vocal regarding the issues with their salaries. Also, I’ve seen some publishers commenting on the linkedin posts of NOBS. However, their comments got deleted as new ones get published. This company is a big scam. All of Reachmark is a scam. They are even creating fake linkedin accounts to make it look like theyre functioning and operating well.
