Quick Thoughts
Webull has a consistent stream of sign-up promotions that usually involve several steps and a couple of additional hoops to jump through. This one is super easy, though: open a new WeBull account, make a deposit of any amount and you’ll get a minimum of $34 in stock.
In my experience, there’s usually 1 or 2 more highly-valued stocks in the bundle and the average total value ends up being between $35-50. The most expensive single stock that I’ve ever received was around $35.
Of course, they market this as possibly being able to get stock worth $30K+, but the odds of receiving even a single share that’s worth $100-$1000 is 1/1111 and the odds of getting a share worth more than $1000 is 1/10,000. So, not good. Still, it’s a pretty easy way to get a quick $35-50 in stock with minimal effort.

For anyone not using the mobile app having an issue getting the deposit promotion, you may need to download the app and sign in there to see the deposit reward. This is what happened to me, support insisted the reward had been issued, but I only had the “Account Opening Bonus” rewards available until I checked in the app. The app is where the “Deposit Offer” finally came available.
I signed up but only got 7.99 in free shares … 1 for acc open and 1 for deposit. No reply to complaint so far.
Nice
Totally forget I even opened this.
Just discovered a little windfall.
Landing pages now says 8/1/22 – 8/31/22 so I guess they extended the promotion.
Thanks for the info!
How long until the “Reward Date” after opening the account and having the first deposit clear?
Looks like it should be 5 days after the deposit clears, which could be 3-5 days after is is sent.
Just a warning they ask for an awful lot to sign up. You have to scan and upload photo ID!? I don’t remember it being this hard for robinhood for example.
Can’t speak to Robinhood, but I’ve always had to upload photo ID on brokerage sites (and increasingly online bank accounts as well). It’s relatively common.
