  • In the newest promotion (valid till 01/10/24 and may get extended), the referred person gets 30 free stocks for making an initial deposit of $500+, and 75 free stocks for making an initial deposit of $25000+. @2

      • The value of each stock will be $3 - $3000. It has been like this for a long time. You are right that you will get a $3 fractional stock for most of the draws. They have extended the promotion to 11/15, and I have a feeling they are going to keep extending it. But it is annoying that unlike before your old referral link would remain valid with updated promotion dates in the terms, now only the newest link shows the correct promotion dates in the terms.

  • As shared elsewhere on DoC, Webull is running a promotion of $100 for asset transfer of $2K+, valid till 12/31/23:
    https://act.webull.com/actv2/routine/transfer/us/bonus.html?actType=act_fbd

    Despite the ambiguous terms which seem to suggest that the $100 bonus is only for ACAT fee reimbursement, they actually just issue $100 cash to your account even if there is no ACAT fee charged. I was able to claim the $100 reward in my account once the transfer was settled, and the bonus was delivered to my account within 3 days.

    Note: this promotion is valid for your first brokerage account transfer only.

    @will @chucksithe

    • Thanks for the info @guest_1342661 will look into it.

      What do you and @guest_1706691 think about this promo: https://act.webull.com/actv2/routine/assetladder/index.html ?

      See some details here: https://www.doctorofcredit.com/contact-us/#comment-1708764

      I already signed up for it, but am surprised it wasn't picked up by DoC, am I somehow missing sth that makes this deal not good?
      Planning to park 100k there, so any possible caution would be appreciated... :)

      • Good bonus if one does not mind locking up a large amount of money that long. For me, I'm going to pass on that one, but I did see it pop up here and there a few times.

    • Today, just did a transfer of $2,001 from Fidelity to WeBull. Thanks for the post.
      @guest_1342661

      • Do you mind describing what you did exactly, @guest_1706691 ?
        Did you pull from webulls side or push from fidelity?
        Also what kind of account did you use at fidelity and does it have to be actual stocks or can it also just be cash to qualify as the required "assets"?
        Thanks a lot for any help here...

        • I did a pull from WeBull of my Fidelity individual cash management account. Was not an account with actual stocks, just an account that has cash to buy stocks. @guest_1712622

          • Thanks for the reply @guest_1706691
            I assume you received the bonus (Shawn mentions 3 days, so I'd assume it would have shown up for you by now) ?
            If so, I also have a Fidelity CM account and will follow your steps.

            Btw, I wrote a longer post in reply to Shawn earlier (it got stuck in moderation), but have you by chance looked at this promo: https://act.webull.com/actv2/routine/assetladder/index.html ?
            I received the email for it, and signed up, but curious if there is any risk I might be overlooking? TIA :)

          • Yes. My $100 showed up in just about 3 days as well in the form of a reward. Very easy bonus.

          • Thanks @guest_1342661 and @guest_1706691 followed your instructions and got the $100 reward :)

            To answer @guest_1717437 , I did an acat transfer pull initiated from Webull's side, but only transferred $2k from my cash balance

  • FYI. The referral bonus for this month is doubled to 24 shares instead of 12. Deadline is 5/31/2023

    If you need a referral, click on my name!

    • I notice it for my referral link at the beginning of this month, but I am not sure if it works because the terms and conditions on the page still say Offer Period: April 11, 2023 12:00 AM ET - April 30, 2023 11:59 PM ET. @guest_1617908.

      Also, the odds of receiving fractional shares in 12, 20, or 24 stocks are as follows: 1:1.008, 1:126.58, 1:10000. Basically, it will be 12 fractional shares for most people.

      • My link says 5/10/2023-5/31/2023 if you click on the rules. And tricky marketing! I guess it is still doubled from 6 to 12 shares at bare minimum. πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

  • @will Newest promo gets referrer $160+ in Apple stock for 1st referral (until 3/22)

  • Churning DP: Did a referral bonus for my first account. About a week after I closed that one, they let me sign up again with a new email and the same phone number (they did not take my Google Voice number), but didn't give me the generic sign-up stock offer, or the same ACATS transfer promo I did before at a lower amount. However, I went through Swagbucks on a new device during signup and while that didn't track automatically, they did credit the 20 bucks when I submitted a ticket.
