(EXPIRED) Acorns Promo For May: Get $1,000 For Referring 12 People

For the past couple of months, Acorns has been offering users a share of $100,000 when referring at least five new users. This month, Acorns is offering a guaranteed $1,000 bonus again, although there are more stringent requirements.

The Deal

• Invite 12 friends to join Acorns in May and they’ll invest $1,000 in your Acorns account.

Key Terms

• Friends must sign up on or after 5/01/2018, have an account in good standing and make their first investment by 5/31/2018.
• Bonuses are paid out by 6/15/2018.
• Referrals who close their account before 6/15/2018, or make an investment that results in a chargeback, will not qualify for the promotion.

Quick Thoughts

This is a more generous promotion than the past couple of months as you’re guaranteed the $1,000 when referring enough new members. The challenge will be referring a dozen new users though seeing as the referral promotions for March and April only required five referrals (albeit with a lower bonus).

If you refer 12 friends who sign up for Acorns, you’d actually end up with $1,060. That’s because you earn $5 per referral in addition to the $1,000 when you reach 12 referrals.

If you haven’t joined Acorns yet, you can earn $5 when signing up through a referral link. Here are our links:
