Fidelity is offering New Bloom Customers:$100 Cash Reward when you Open 2 Fidelity Brokerage Accounts (Fidelity Bloom Spend and Fidelity Bloom Save) via the Fidelity Bloom App and Deposit $50 or more within 7 calendar days of opening the account (see the instructions below).
Thanks to community member hashir for sharing this deal.
Open a Bloom account and deposit $50 to get a $100 bonus. This is open to new Fidelity customers and existing Fidelity customers that don't have a Bloom account.
the Net Deposit at the end of the 7 calendar days after your initial funding date ("the Qualification Period") must be at least $50.
The cash award will be deposited directly to the Fidelity Bloom Save account within 10 calendar days after the qualification period.

Looks fairly straightforward.
Technically opening 2 accounts. A debit & a brokerage account for them to invest your savings.
*edit: as pointed out below by SirMixPix, both accounts are technically brokerage accounts which changes the protections/guarantees a bit.
Anyone seeing fees? I'm not.
looks like even better than OP claimed:
+$5 just for signing up (YMMV, this happened during sign up process for me. it is already showing up in the app under Activity for me)
+$100 if you fund $50 per promo
+$30 (10% match bonus on up to $300 deposit to SAVE account)
so if you park $300 in this for a while you'll get $135 in bonuses (I wasn't sure re timing and didn't dig into the details, others have made educated guesses in comments below)
Updates:
Sounds like they check settled funds at the end of the month and you get the bonus early in the next month.
the 10% is an intro bonus rate, looks like 5% for future years.
edit 2:
185TU and not frontpage?
is it the lack of kickback money for SD since it's via app signups and not a direct affiliate link or what?
wild the promoted garbage that gets pumped to the frontpage with very little engagement while this doesn't. apparently the Lisen phone holder & ESR plastic phone cases are more noteworthy lol
edit 3:
I got my full bonus
8/18 signed up. immediately got $5 bonus
8/21 ACH transfer posted ($300)
8/30 $100 bonus posted
9/01 $30 match bonus posted
Keep in mind, both the accounts are brokerage funds and, while uncommon for low risk mutual funds of these types to lose money, they have and can (in rare instances). They are not fdic protected and do carry more risk, albeit slight, than a 'standard' back account covered under FDIC insurance.
These brokerage accounts are instead SIPC covered, which while similar to FDIC insurance, there are some significant differences.
A good article explaining what is covered and what isn't here: https://www.firstrepublic.com/ins...ifferences
Interesting Quote from above article:
"It's worth noting that SIPC insurance does not cover the value of your stocks, bonds or other investments. Rather, the SIPC replaces your missing stocks and other securities when possible."
I am Not knocking this deal or the opening of accounts to get the deal. Just some fyi that I found while exploring the fine print that I found interesting.
Got the $5. Currently a Fidelity credit card + brokerage customer as well.
I attached a picture of where you see the $5 bonus.

Currently trying this myself, I'm not sure if they will give 2 promotions to one account but they are currently offering it, so it doesn't hurt to try. I thought I read something about one promotion per account in the Terms & Conditions (Offer is limited to one bonus award per individual), but that could mean one promotion per account per service offered by Fidelity. Worst case you only get $100 for a $50 deposit. Best case you get $200 for depositing $100 ($50 to Fidelity Bloom Account, $50 to Fidelity Starter Pack Account).
Thanks for the reply. Good luck to you.
Read on Reddit that one can receive both rewards provided one meets the eligibility requirements for each promotion, so it might actually work out
I am not a Fidelity customer, and was already thinking of opening an account. Is there a current bonus for opening a new account (in addition to this Bloom deal)? On Fidelity site, I see an offer, "Get $100 for depositing $50 into new account (Fidelity Starter Pack)".
Does anyone know (or have tried double-dipping)...open a Fidelity Starter Pack, deposit $50 and get $100 bonus, and then open a bloom account and get the deal posted here?
Thanks.
I did both, never received a confirmation for the Bloom $100 offer only the $5 credited, but for the Starter Pack got email stating that I qualify for the $100 offer and will be credited 25 days after the $50 funding. Didn't know which account to fund, so I sent $50 to each account just in case.
I got app and opened the accounts with Fidelity Bloom. Then, I transfered $300 from my bank to Save account for 10% deposit bonus ($30 bonus). I already have Fidelity accounts from last year's bonus offer and while I was siging up for Fidelity Bloom accounts, the screen said I would also receive $5 for completing sign up. So, I am looking to receivce total of $135 in bonuses. Thank you, OP, for sharing the deal.
Opened Tuesday morning through the app and no message about the $100 bonus with $50 deposit during the process. I just finally received an email Wednesday evening confirming that I was eligible.
The Terms and Conditions mentions the period for the $100 bonus. I think the qualifying period to make a deposit is 7 days after deposit, and the bonus gets paid after the qualifying period.
So wouldn't expect it til at least 7 to 10 days AFTER your deposit clears. The 10% thing I'm not sure. It was in the fine print somewhere during signup, but didn't see anything else additionally to view.
Oh man glad I saw your comment, I foolishly let it do the default 180/120 split on my EFT... Just threw in another 120 to Save account for now to max the cash back... Good to actually READ the terms I suppose haha. Thanks!
You are welcome! Just received an email from them to remind me to deposit $50 to get $100 in 7-10 days.
I opened and dropped $300 in 2 days ago. Got the $5 yesterday.
Got this email this morning, so at least things seem to be moving.

They are giving you 4.95% interest. Where are you going to get that kind of return with almost no risk. I am transferring more funds RN
Does it qualify using PayPal or does it have to be an ACH payment through your bank account?
