Fidelity reserves the right to modify the terms and conditions or terminate the offer at any time. Other terms and conditions or eligibility criteria apply. See terms and conditions for more information.

Accounts that are opened with a Fidelity representative or outside of the official offer page are not eligible.

4) Will I receive a confirmation email once I register?

Limited to one offer per customer.
Individuals who took advantage of the previous $50 for $100 offer aren't eligible.

Non-US residents aren't eligible.
Persons employed by FINRA or a securities organization in a regulatory capacity aren't eligible.

8) I opened a joint account, will the other joint owner be registered for the offer as well?

No, the other account owner must open a new eligible account and meet the necessary requirements.

9) What are the funding requirements?

Once you've opened your eligible account, you'll need to deposit at least $50 from an outside financial institution into your new Fidelity account within 15 calendar days (qualification period) of registering for the offer. If you registered with the Starter PackSM accounts, then net deposits between the two accounts must total at least $50. Make sure you allow a few days for your funds to deposit.

10) I opened the Starter PackSM accounts, do I have to fund both The Fidelity Account® and the Fidelity® Cash Management Account with $50 each?

No, as long as net deposits are at least $50 between the two accounts, you will be eligible to receive the cash reward. Make sure you allow a few days for your funds to deposit.

11) How do I fund my account?

When you open a new account, you'll be asked how you'd like to fund the account. You have several options, such as mobile check deposit or transferring assets from another brokerage firm. You can also link a bank account to initiate an electronic funds transfer (EFT).

12) How much time do I have to fund my account?

You have 15 calendar days (qualification period) from registering for the offer to fund your account.

13) When will I receive the cash reward?

Once the qualification period (15 calendar days) has ended and you have at least $50 in your new Fidelity account, Fidelity will deposit $100 into the account within 10 calendar days. The total time from registering for the offer to receiving the cash reward may take up to 25 calendar days.

14) I registered for the offer by opening the Starter PackSM accounts, which account will receive the $100 cash reward?

Assuming you met all eligibility requirements for the offer, The Fidelity® Cash Management account will receive the $100 cash reward.

15) Do I have to keep the $100 cash reward at Fidelity once I receive it?

Yes. While you don't need to keep your initial deposit of $50 in the new account for more than the qualification period, you must keep the $100 cash reward (minus any losses related to trading, market volatility, or margin debit balances) in the eligible account for a minimum of 90 calendar days starting from when you receive the reward.

16) Do I need to pay taxes on the $100 cash reward?

$50 fee when you close the IRA…..
no one should so anything more than open a cash mgmt account to qualify for this deal. if you have other big plans with fidelity, fine go ahead but don't complicate this deal by trying to do something fancy that you aren't quite sure will qualify. just open the cash acct, get your $50, then figure out how to do everything else you want to do with your financial future. too many people trying to get creative last time and either didn't get the bonus or had to call it in. self-inflicted dealing with fees, transfers, etc...way too easy just to do the basics. this comment is meant to help those who like to torture themselves when it comes to getting free money.
I just opened an HSA with Fidelity. Suppose there's no way I can qualify for this.

Annual Maintenance I am not positive about, but Fidelity themselves declare zero annual account fees. I have never been charged.

Yes this works. I already had IRAs through Fidelity for myself and my wife and was able to open additional Fidelity IRAs under this promotion previously and receive the $100 incentive for the both of us.

Thank you. So if you already have 401k account then to create or open new brokerage account just sign in with existing username and then there will be an option to enter promo code "Fidelity100"?

the answer is yes. you absolutely must open a new account and you get to decide what type of account you want to open, please check the terms...may i suggest a cash management account since it's the easiest. do you need to create a new login profile on fidelity.com, no that is not necessary. this offer is available to existing fidelity customers so in the broad sense of the word (and i'm using this loosely), it's ok if you already have a "brokerage account" with fidelity. but please don't try to use an account that is already open and please don't try to use money by transferring funds from an existing fidelity account of any type or else you risk not getting the bonus.

Do you have to leave the $50 in as long as the $100?

I didn't see an option to transfer 50 from a bank account but it let me transfer 50 from an existing fidelity HSA into the new cash mgmt account I just opened. Did I screw it up?

Quote from amoled :
Thanks for sharing your experiences with Fidelity. Apologies, I did not formulate question well and your response is addressing a different facet of trading (ie execution). Sure once the order is entered, all will execute within a second (provided price target is met). Thsi goes for all brokers.... So execution speed is more less the same across all brokers...

What I meant to ask is: How fast can one create an order? For example, on TOS/TDA a limit/stop order can be created with a single mouse click using price ladders ie super fast. On Merrill, it is impossible to do such a thing: you have to fill out lengthy and incredibly slow order entry form and by the time you fill it out the market already moves...
Definitely not a single click in the regular interface, probably 5-10 seconds to do a limit order, however Active Trader Pro may have more options, haven't used it in many years. I'm sure they have a demo somewhere.

On TDA are you using ThinkorSwim? Fidelity's ATP is supposed to be competitive to that.

Execution speed can vary some but all should be in the 1 or 2 second range for liquid instruments (but 2 seconds is a lot slower than 1 in this world). However pricing will vary and one broker may execute your limit trade and another may not as they don't have as many markets or access to as many dark pools etc.

Quote from koge811 :
ahem. why not buy through IEX with buy direct order for free in their active trader pro.
Only IBKR paid version and fidelity have these options for now other brokers do not.
Because you may end up getting a worse price or have less liquidity than another market. I'd rather let their computers find best execution for me. I'm not going to take a hit just because IEX is "playing fair". There are some scenarios where you want to trade a specific instrument on a specific market, but pretty rare and specific instances.

I used to work with one of the co-founders of IEX. Ironically we specialized in helping people play unfair.

Pretty sure the money has to be new to fidelity so that won't count. You also just made an unqualified withdraw from your HSA so I would transfer that back and set up your bank account for ACH.

not an answer: but generally, institutions are looking for "new" money to them, not from other accounts that is with them. At least thats how it is with Chase.

thanks for the alert, now i finally got Fidelity.

From the terms it states you only have to leave the $100 in there, you can withdraw the 50 after the $100 posts to the account. But I just left it until the 90 days after the $100 posted and took it all out to be safe.

I honestly don't recall - I had a 401k to begin with and opened new accounts, but am not sure if it auto-populated the information for me or not (being that your 401k is likely through Fidelity Net Benefits instead of the standard Fidelity), but it should allow you to open the account via the link [fidelity.com] just the same.

From offer FAQ:

Once the qualification period (15 calendar days) has ended and you have at least $50 in your new Fidelity account, Fidelity will deposit $100 into the account within 10 calendar days. The total time from registering for the offer to receiving the cash reward may take up to 25 calendar days.

While you don't need to keep your initial deposit of $50 in the new account for more than the qualification period, you must keep the $100 cash reward (minus any losses related to trading, market volatility, or margin debit balances) in the eligible account for a minimum of 90 calendar days starting from when you receive the reward.

Yikes.
Money in your HSA account should never be used for anything like this!!!

Signed up for the hell of it. Was quick and easy. Reward code was entered automatically. At the end, it gives you various options on how you want to transfer the money. Email arrived with $100 reward bonus clearly mentioned in the subject title. I consider this a done and closed deal. Thanks OP!
