Set Your Clocks: Increased $10-$60 MoneyLion Bonuses Return Tomorrow at 4P PST! [US]
https://www.referralworldnews.com/go/moneylion - code $55BONUS
Set your clocks: Tomorrow at 4 PM PST, my biggest moneymaker will be back with its famous "Referral Rush" promo! During this 2X bonus promo, new members get an increased $10 signup, and all members get unlimited $10 referral bonuses from MoneyLion. Earn additional $50 bonuses as you or your referees trigger the deposit bonus, which can be done through direct deposit or by making a $100+ transfer from within Current or Found.
These "Referral Rush" promos typically run for two weeks. If this promo follows suit, I expect it will end around 2/25 (but will report once I know the exact end date).
Month after month, MoneyLion is my top-earning app. Just last month, I received $1,290 in bonuses. And to date, I've received $45,800 (and counting). More info on MoneyLion (including how to easily trigger the deposit bonus) here.
Acorns "Refer 4, Get $1,400" Promo! [Ends 2/14; US]
https://www.referralworldnews.com/go/acorns
Acorns just started a great new promotion. Between now and 2/14, 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 four people by 2/14 who complete these same steps, you'll earn another $1,400 ($1,425 in total)!
Be sure to complete all the steps when signing up. 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 $1,400 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.

I've Now Scored $400 From Zenlit's Bonuses! [US]
https://www.referralworldnews.com/go/zenlit - code 817-804
A few weeks back, I reported that I'd signed up for the new, viral app Zenlit and earned $70. Fast forward to today: I've earned $400, and I've already cashed out, receiving a $100 Amazon gift card and a $100 Visa gift card!
If you're not familiar with Zenlit, it's a brand-new driving rewards app that rewards you simply for being in a car, whether you’re driving or riding as a passenger. The app is available on both iOS and Android, requires no ID, and does not connect to or report to insurance.
New users earn 100 ZNLT tokens ($5 value) after signing up (use code 817-814), creating a free wallet in-app, and completing three separate trips as a driver or passenger (totaling five miles combined). Once you complete it, the refer feature unlocks, and you can earn 50 ZNLT for each referral ($2.50 value).
Rewards can be redeemed for gift cards, Visa rewards, or Bitcoin. Gift cards include popular U.S. brands like Amazon, Target, and Starbucks. There is a short waiting period of about seven days after signup before gift card redemption unlocks, and gift cards are capped at $100 total. Other redemption methods unlock later and are not subject to the gift card cap.
This app reminds me of Miles, which was insanely popular a few years back (before the app got stingy, lowering bonuses and making withdrawals incredibly difficult). For more info on Zenlit, see my featured post here.

And you can earn a $200 referral bonus for the first five people who sign up using your link and do the same.
Additionally, OKX is running a crypto drop promo where you earn extra crypto simply by holding crypto in your account (note that USDG is excluded from this promo).

Kraken's New $25-$100 Bonuses Promo, Stackable! [US, CAN]
https://www.referralworldnews.com/go/kraken - invite code 2wsks2hp
Kraken just started a new signup bonus promotion, which randomly awards $25-$100 when you sign up, deposit $200, and make a $200 crypto trade, excluding stablecoins. Deposit at least $205 to cover the trading fee, or sign up for the free 1-month Pro trial to avoid trading fees (tip: create a virtual card with Privacy app)
You can sell your crypto once the trade settles. Bonuses pay out within 14 days.
A perk to Kraken is that you can use popular cashback apps/portals to stack this signup bonus with the amounts that the cashback portal offers:
Capital One Shopping ($20 signup bonus plus $35-$244.50 Kraken cash back)
Rakuten ($50 signup bonus plus $50 Kraken cash back)
ShopBack ($15 signup bonus plus $50 Kraken cash back)
