A matrix scheme, also known as a Matrix Site, Elevator Scheme, Escalator Scheme or Ladder Scheme, is a business model involving the exchange of money for a certain product with a side bonus of being added to a waiting list for a product of greater value than the amount given.[1] Matrix schemes are also sometimes considered similar to Ponzi or pyramid schemes. [2] They have been called unsustainable by the United Kingdom's Office of Fair Trading. [1] The Matrix Scheme is also an example of an exploding queue in Queueing Theory.
