I am an existing customer with active trading account and just signed up for investing account with the promo and received the following email.


You're on your way
Thanks for registering for the $100 cash reward.

As a reminder, you have up to 15 calendar days to deposit $50 or more to qualify.

You'll receive the $100 within 25 days after you fund a new eligible account.
how is it BS? it's their terms, and it literally says "Fund the account with a minimum of $50 ("Net Deposit") from an external, non-Fidelity source.". reading is fundamental Cool

If you're new to investing, I would stay away from margins and options. A margin is basically the ability to borrow money from your broker to buy a stock.

A stock option is a contract between two parties that gives the buyer the right to buy or sell underlying stocks at a predetermined price and within a specific timeframe. You have calls - meaning you believe the stock price will rise above the predetermined price before your contract expires. Alternatively, you have puts - stock price will fall below the predetermined price on/before the contract expiration. The differences are what you can gain by executing the contract....long story short, there's a science to options. There are good chances for profit, but it's risky.

Has anyone opened the cash management account received the "$100 cash reward is on its way" email immediately?

I opened a cash management account with the promo code entered and made the deposit, and I have yet received the email. This is the first time I take advantage of the promo.

Use an index target retirement fund for a general purposes diversified fund. It gets more conservative the closer you get to retirement.

You could get also get an index off the snp 500 or similar.

Do you have to invest with the cash management account? Can I just use it as checking account?

after exclusively using my fidelity visa for 2%, i have set that card aside and starting using my 3% us alliance visa for everything. it's good for exactly like the fidelity except 50% more. like you, i've made a ton of money and i *always* apply it back as a statement credit.

https://www.usalliance.org/
I was also interested but saw this in the fine print:

" 3 Points per dollar accrual rate is a promotional value and expires on 12/31/2022, at which time points will accrue at 2 points per dollar."

Frown

it's not fine print; it's just a fact. every credit card has a expiration date on their promotions, they just don't tell you; nothing is forever or unlimited indefinitely. each year, us alliance renews the rate for an additional year. the reason why they post this so when the other jealous credit cards finally decide to offer 3% on every single purchase "match", u.s. alliance can step up and stay ahead of the competition by expiring your 3% on 12/31/2022 and refreshing your rate at 4% on 1/1/2023.

the day u.s. alliance reverts their rate back to 2% is the day they get benched and find themselves alongside other retired cards like my fidelity 2%.

That's smart! Still no email for me, guess I have to wait 25 days to find out.

So will the money in my account fluctuate? Confused about this part:

Note: you must keep the $100 cash reward (minus any losses related to trading or market volatility, or margin debit balances) in the eligible account for a minimum of 90 calendar days starting from when you receive the reward

It is tied to the market then? I have to make some investment choice with the money deposited if I do this? Can't just leave it alone as a balance on the account to get the bonus cash?

You can buy stocks with the cash account, so the value can change. My account remains at 150. It hasn't been 90 days so leaving it alone

Quote from ArtsyGeekette :
What kind of credit inquiry is associated with this investment account? If it's a hard inquiry, then hard pass. I couldn't see anything on the website ToS or received any answer from customer service.

If it's a soft inquiry, this deal seems like a decent way to earn $100 without taking a blow to your credit score.

Great question, I see a couple people "guessed" an answer…

Is there anyone out there who definitively knows?

Hard inquiry? Soft inquiry? Thanks 🙏

registered and transferred $50 a few weeks ago, just checked and I haven't gotten the $100 but I have a notice (on my main accounts page) that it's processing. Do I understand right that I shouldn't touch that money at all for 90 days, even investments unless I deposit more $ (since they could bring the account value down if the stocks decline)?
