The Offer
- Crypto exchange ErisX is offering a $50 referral bonus. Person signing up needs to complete the following requirements:
- Fund new account with $500 or more in a single deposit
- Make at least one trade
Our Verdict
Requirements for this seem relatively easy, looks like you can purchase USD Coin as well which is stable in price so just have to pay the fees to buy/sell which look low as well. Feel free to add your referral link in this linked post, do not share them in the comments below.

Anyone else receive a 1099-NEC, that did not earn any referral money? I received a 1099-NEC for $50 and my referral earned is $0
The only bonus I received was the $50 opening bonus as a referred person, and I got a 1099-NEC for $50.
Did you get a referee bonus yourself? I got a NEC but I was a referee and referrer
I'm shocked that ErisX indeed told me that they found my referral link on doc, so I can't earn bonus (cs pointed out the post and direct me to their term).
I already forgot I posted the link there a few month ago, and honestly this is the first time seeing a platform spending effort monitoring all their referral code on doc and enforce their policy to prevent ppl from inviting others, instead of improving their (kind of confusing) UI/UX......
Fine, $50 is small, so I'll move on and put my money elsewhere. :/ eToro gives $250 for $5000 investment, and much better customer service experience.
Funded 9/17, referral bonus posted 9/22. Withdrew everything 10/25.
Traded ETH and BTC and got the bonuses in just a few days. How long do I need to keep the funds there?
ErisX is indeed enforcing the rule about posting referral links on websites. They told me that's why my referrals show as earned $0.
Mine also says $0.
mine says earned $0 as well.
Did they provide a link where they found your link? Otherwise it seems a little suspect
They didn't say where they found it. I only referred 2 people (at least, according to their website), so I don't think my account looks unusual. I think the only place I posted it was on DoC's page.
It probably isn't difficult for them to see from the http referrer header that a lot of people were coming from DoC's page.
I would ask Will or Chuck to remove your link from the page, wait for it to be removed, then ask ErisX to provide proof or you'll file complaints
Has anyone here gotten the Erisx bonus yet? I haven't gotten anything yet.. and I traded in a crypto other than USDC.
Yes. Contact ErisX for why yours hasnt posted
@William Charles
Could you indicate whether an account requires submission of photo ID? That's generally a deal-breaker for me on smaller deals and would be nice to know before trying to sign up.
It's probably different for different people, depending on the info they get about you from public records, etc. I had to take pictures of ID & selfie for this account, but someone else didn't. Similarly, for banks or credit cards, some people are asked to upload documents, other people aren't.
I did not have to show photo ID or take "selfie"
Probably not, it's hard to track every single requirement and a lot of deals I don't sign up for personally. Often it's discussed in the comments
Ok thanks
Has anyone tried to transfer Eth from ErisX to Metamask? I clicked on "withdraw", and it charged 50% of what I wanted to transfer. This is crazy.
what you're charged there is the "gas" fee. I'd recommend you to sell it into USD rather than transfer it using the Ethereum Network
Actually is Withdrawal Fee. The fee to withdraw ETH is 0.005.

yeah I think i'm going to sell it for USD and transfer it back to my bank.
Hi, everyone, I asked the customer service, and he reminded me we cannot share our referral link publicly. They will scan the internet and once they found you, you will lose the 50 referral bonus. So if you post your link, you had better delete it to avoid a worse outcome.
So we should come up with a system that we all agree on, where we change the last letter in our referral, this would get around that. Example: referral=ABCDABCD. We plus up the last letter by 1, and change the "D" to an "E."
1 - Open new account using link or promo code (if using link the promo code will populate in the referral field)
2 - Fund with $500 or more in a single CASH deposit
BONUS deposited to account within 2 weeks of meeting qualifications
*USDC trades do not qualify
*IRA accounts not eligible
Where do you see the "make a minimum $100 trade within 30 days"?
I only see: "Execute at least one trade within 30 calendar days of the date of account opening"
@guest_1255159
Sorry, it's not $100 trade, that was on the Voyager bonus. I was doing both referrals at the same time.
I wish I could delete that but I don't know how. It is "make a trade within 30 days"
@will can you please edit the above comment from @guest_1256501 and remove #3 "Make a minimum $100 trade within 30 days" It is confusing some of us. Thank you.
Done
Thank you :)
Oh wow, missed the USDC part. I would have messed all this up. Thanks
@guest_1256501 can you please link to where it says these terms?

SORRY, You do Not have to make $100 trade - you need to "make a trade", but you will see USDC does not qualify as well as IRA.
I was also doing the Voyager referral and made a mistake. ...... Sorry
