A one-year subscription costs $99. The offer is to spend $99+ and get $99 back, so it's a free one-year subscription.

Get a one-time $99 statement credit after using your enrolled eligible Card to make a single subscription-based purchase of $99+ online at The Motley Fool or at fool.com/amex [fool.com] by 5/8/2021. See terms.

Quote :
Must first add offer to Card and then use same Card to redeem. Only U.S.-issued American Express® Cards are eligible. American Express Prepaid Cards, Corporate Cards and American Express Cards issued outside the United States are not eligible. Limit 1 enrolled Card per Card Member across all American Express offer channels. Your enrollment of an eligible American Express Card for this offer extends only to that Card. Offer valid only on US website or at Fool.com/amex. Valid only on purchases made in US dollars. Offer is non-transferable. Limit of 1 statement credit per Card Member. The enrolled Card account must not be cancelled or past due to receive statement credit. Any benefit earned from this offer is in addition to the rewards (i.e. Membership Rewards or cash back) earned as part of your existing Card benefits, but your ability to earn spend-based rewards for the purchase will be based on the amount after any statement credit or other discount is applied. Statement credit will appear on your billing statement within 90 days after 5/8/2021, provided that American Express receives information from the merchant about your qualifying purchase. The Motley Fool Terms and Conditions currently provide that unless you notify The Motley Fool that you want to cancel, or that you do not want to auto renew, your subscription or membership fee will automatically renew for another subscription period (subject to applicable law) of equal length (for example, monthly, or annually). This means that The Motley Fool will collect the then-applicable membership or subscription fee and any taxes by charging a credit card The Motley Fool has on record for you without notifying you, unless notification is required by applicable law. Note that American Express may not receive information about your qualifying purchase from merchant until all items from your qualifying purchase have been provided/shipped by merchant. Statement credit may be reversed if qualifying purchase is returned/cancelled. If American Express does not receive information that identifies your transaction as qualifying for the offer, you will not receive the statement credit. For example, your transaction will not qualify if it is not made directly with the merchant. In addition, in most cases, you may not receive the statement credit if your transaction is made with an electronic wallet or through a third party or if the merchant uses a mobile or wireless card reader to process it. By adding an offer to a Card, you agree that American Express may send you communications about the offer.

Send an email to [email protected] after you have signed up requesting opt-out for the auto renewal. After I did that, they sent me an email that said: "we have disabled the auto-renewal feature"

If you search online - you will find 2-year packages to StockAdvisor or Rule-breakers for only $98 (one-year for $59)

Rule Breakers (1-Year) for $99:

TURN OFF AUTO-RENEWAL
All Motley Fool premium subscriptions are set to automatically renew for your convenience, and to ensure uninterrupted access to your premium service's investing guidance. If you would like to turn off the automatic renewal feature, we can assist.

To help with your request, please email us at [email protected], or by filling out the online Contact Customer Service form.

PRIVACY SETTINGS for premium subscriber
My Fool > Data Preferences >> turn off

For Existing Subscribers
For people with existing Stock advisor subscription, if you buy and sign up with same email information as your existing Motley fool account, the new purchase will extend your expiration date by 1 year.

============================================
[b]For those curious how Motley Fool's stock picks are performing I setup a pie (portfolio) on M1Finance with 41 of the most recent suggested stocks from Tom and David. As long as I see reps coming from this thread so I know people are still using it I will update this link every Thursday to show the new recommendations.
https://m1.finance/2M-jgR32cPTC [Final update was on 04/08 due to apparent lack of interest].
M1finance gives you free trades and fractional shares which means you can transfer xxx dollars a week or 2 weeks and it will adjust it based on your percentages.
Advantage of fractional shares is explained well here: https://www.fool.com/investing/ho...al-shares/

For the people complaining about to much spam before you go crazy and cancel your account, go into your account settings and uncheck what you don't want. I have everything unchecked but the buy/sell alerts in stock advisor. https://www.fool.com/account/comm...-settings/

I just signed up. The first thing they do is try to sell you upgraded services for anywhere from $200-$14,000. The "premium" service we get is nearly useless. The last stock picks article is from December 28.
Swagbucks has 7500SB for the $99 yearly subscription as well, should be stackable for a nice MM.
Market correction coming soon for GameStop.

No. It was just $99 for my 1 year.

There was a prior poster who says no tax in California:

I also found their FAQ on which states have tax:

Not sure how great of a service this is. It's a ridiculous amount of emails that sometimes just market other services. Very little actual discussion or analysis of Buy Picks. If it wasn't free through AMEX I'd be pissed.

I doubt anyone will read this but I signed up for this Motley Fool deal and am thinking of quitting even though it is free Mostly it is just spam emails for buying more premier services . It is hard to tell when an email is about stocks or trying to sell you services. Mostly you have to watch long videos to get any information of any value.

I feel like I just spend $99 (given back to me) to be entered on one of the most aggressive marketing email lists ever.

They keep on selling new stuff and keep on pointing out the amazing gains on stuff like Netflix, well that's all news.

Are people actually getting useful investment advice here?

I managed to turn off all the emails. Much easier just to go to their site and read stuff I need. Their strategy is to buy and hold for the long term - so not like you need a daily email for anything.

This is typical of all of these investing letters - you get a basic version and then they try you to sell more stuff.

I bought some of their stocks .. will see how it goes. Others I already owned - so sort of good to get confirmation.

Same here. Still waiting. I received the confirmation email from Amex but no credit. I cannot trust their email. I will wait this week. After that I will cancel membership because I will have only 1 week in hand. ( 30 days window)

I think one or two folks here have stated their info is good ... and they used them for years. Personally I'm skeptical.

However, there may be a bit of a self-fulfilling prophecy thing going on during bull markets (could work in bear too, but probably less so) ... where due to the size of their subscription/mailing lists they can influence the price of whatever stocks they pick .. .simply by the act of choosing them. Based on the couple of picks I've followed so far, that seems to be the case, where right after being chosen they shoot up.

Now there is the little problem that to really benefit from a scenario like that, one needs to buy the stock BEFORE their pick is announced, not after. I'm tempted to try it and just see if I can skim off 5-10% profit per pick based on their followup hawking of their picks -- as it seems like it's not a one and done thing, they push their picks for a while.

Of course if the market slumps this probably won't work so well. Anyway, thinking of trying it with their 2 monthly picks at small amounts. Worst case I lose just a little, but it could be an interesting experiment.
