Our Verdict
Do not share your referrals in the comments below, instead share them in this linked post. Previously you could get $30.
Gemini Data point:
2/18/25: Opened Gemini account with $75.00 referral link
2/20/25: Purchased 102.00 GUSD (no fees with active trader version)
2/20/25 Got email confirming recruit status and under rewards tab, set up to earn $75.00 worth of USDC referral rewards
3/21/25 Received email with subject “Hereās $5 in Bitcoin on Us” and logged in to get $5 BTC
3/21/25 Sold 102.00 GUSD and withdrew to bank, received 75 USDC referral rewards
3/23/25 Sold 5 BTC and 75 USDC and withdrew to bank
Had 2 referrals from doc. Both didn’t trade and shows expired in the app. Well there goes my bonus.
Yeah it looks like I only have 1 that actually traded. Why go through KYC just to then not fulfill the bonus? Maybe they weren’t really approved?
I was wondering my friend I referred us having trouble with deposit would it still count if say I send her the crypto from one of my wallets and she trades/converts in Gemini app will that still cause the trigger for these things š
Yeah, if she sells what you send her and purchases at least 100, it should?
2/14/25 – Account opened through referral link. $101 deposited and used to purchase GUSD
3/17/25 – $75 bonus received in the account as BTC
Sold off BTC (less than $1 fees) and GUSD (no fees) using Active Trader. Able to withdraw to bank account immediately.
Wasn’t aware the default rewards payout was set to BTC, nor that you could change it. Per AM’s comment below, you can change the payout to many other choices. GUSD wasn’t an option but USDC is if you want something more stable.
2/15 – Account opened and $100 funded
2/16 – Bought $100 of GUSD
3/17 – $75 referral bonus posted
Down to $50 again

Hmm the people I referred are now showing up as completed “recruits” in the referrals tab but 0 dollars associated with them. They were referred on the 14th
Anyone else?
Ha, they all just came through. Got email confirming
Tip: get payout in USDC. Lowest fee one I’ve tried. I had it set for LTC which I did my initial trade in and they gobbled up around 4 percent as trading fees! And presumably same when I go to sell woof
Did you try active trader option? Way lower fees.
Yeah, when selling. But when the referral credits are issued, they arrive with fees deducted and you can’t choose how the orders were placed
Oh I didn’t know they deducted fees for crediting a bonus. That’s insane.
Thanks for the tip! It showed the default rewards payout as BTC for me. Changed it to USDC.
Those referred now get $50 for same $100 traded
Got an email from Gemini, this offer ends on 3/11/25
They have been verifying P2’s account for the past two weeks, anyone else have this problem?
No, that’s weird
You should reach out to them
