$100 Bonus for Existing Current Members! [US]
https://www.referralworldnews.com/go/current - code BRETTN954
If you are a Current banking member, you may be eligible for a $100 bonus if you haven't received a direct deposit in the past few months! This is a great opportunity for folks who previously earned their deposit bonus!
To qualify: open your app, scroll down, tap Rewards > Add Code, and enter code RETURN100 (if the code doesn't work, try DD100). Once you do and it says "Successful", you'll get $100 when you receive an eligible payroll deposit of at least $200 within 35 days.
Notes:
You must have previously received at least one Eligible Payroll Deposit on or after 11/27/2022.
You must not have received an Eligible Payroll Deposit on or after 11/30/2025.
The screen initially shows "Ends 12/04/25" once you enter the code. That is a bug. If you back out and go back in, click on Rewards, you'll see the March expiration date as shown in the screenshot below.
If you haven't signed up for Current yet, you can still qualify for a $100 bonus by signing up with this link or entering code BRETTN954. More info on Current here.

Capital One Shopping's $80 EASY Signup Bonus is Back! [Targeted; US]
https://www.referralworldnews.com/go/shopping
Last month, Capital One Shopping released an easy promo, and great news for many, it's back! New users can score an $80 signup bonus, and referrals are showing $60 or $80 (YMMV, capped at $500). This is one of the easiest bonuses to earn right now because there's no spending requirement. Just sign up, install the Capital One Shopping extension within 7 days, and keep it installed for 90 days. Use it as you shop online to find coupons, compare prices, and more. It's a no-brainer for anyone who does any online shopping. Visit Amazon, Walmart, Target, or any store you normally use. Let the extension check for codes and rewards. Purchases are helpful but not required. Do not uninstall the extension or block it with ad blockers during the 90 days.
Once your bonuses credit to your account, you can redeem them for various gift cards.
The extension can really help you save while shopping. And the referral bonuses stack up fast if you share your link!
More info on this Capital One Shopping promotion here.

Tonight's $8.5K+ Free Cash Game! [Worldwide]
https://www.referralworldnews.com/go/gotgame
If you attempted to play last night's round of GotGame AI trivia, you know that they had technical difficulties and decided to stop the game and add yesterday's $6K pot to today's $2,500 game. They also recently added a wheel spin at the top of each game, which potentially increases the pot by as much as 200%. How today's game is going to work is as follows:
Prize pot starts at $2.5K. The wheel will be spun, potentially increasing or even doubling the pot to $5K. Then the $6K from yesterday's game will be added to that, meaning today's prize pool could reach $11K.
As usual, tonight's game starts at 8 PM EST (5 PM PST). There will be 6 questions, and all you need to do is correctly guess whether each image/audio clip/video was created by a human or an AI. To play, simply click this link, enter your phone number, and be online and ready to play come tonight! Congratulations to all RWN readers who have already won the past few weeks (I've won six of the games myself, and my fiancé has won two)!
Once signed up, you can choose how you want to be paid for your winnings. Just add your PayPal/Venmo/Zelle email or phone number to your wallet. When you win, payments are typically sent within 12-24 hours. More info here.

MyAppFree's Increased, Instant $9 Bonuses [US, Brazil, EU; Ends 1/29]!
https://www.referralworldnews.com/go/myappfree - code ZQZJWEMP
Great news: MyAppFree's increased, instant $9 referral bonus promotion has returned and runs through 1/29 11:59 Pacific Time.
If you haven't signed up yet, you can get a $3 signup bonus with your first $3 cashout, and you will be able to immediately earn $9 referral bonuses for everyone who does the same using your link/code.
More info on MyAppFree's promo and recommendations for quickly triggering the bonus can be found in my featured post here.
Acorns "Refer 3, Get $650" Promo! [Ends 2/1; US]
https://www.referralworldnews.com/go/acorns
Acorns just started a great new promotion. Between now and 2/1, you'll get a $5 signup bonus when you sign up for Acorns and invest $5. $5 referral bonuses as well, and if you refer three people by 2/1 who complete these same steps, you'll earn another $650 ($665 in total)!
Be sure that if you are signing up, you complete all the steps. Each week, I'll get at least one person who signs up but doesn't invest the $5 to trigger the signup and referral bonuses. The key things to remember: Sign up, verify your identity, invest $5, and leave it in until you receive your bonus from Acorns. If you need assistance with any of the steps, email me at [email protected]; I'm happy to help!
Note that Acorns charges a monthly $3 fee after your first 30 days. You'll need to pay the first $3 subscription fee to qualify for the big $900 promo. Once you and/or your referrer receive the bonus, you can cancel if you choose; however, I recommend keeping them, as they frequently offer generous referral bonuses. I've earned thousands from Acorns from promotions just like this one.
ShopBack W-9 Deadline Today (Check Your Email)!
https://www.referralworldnews.com/go/shopback
If you've been referring ShopBack, you'll want to check your emails. They sent referral emails informing us that today is the deadline to complete a W-9 form for tax purposes. I'm not sure if all ShopBack members received this email, or only those who received more than $600 in bonuses in 2025.
