Spring Forward!

If your state/country observes it, Happy Daylight Saving Time! For me, this day ranks among my favorite days of the year as it means more daylight with more time each day to enjoy the sunshine, and that Springtime is just around the corner!

Make Memories With Those You Love!

I hope you're having a wonderful weekend. I took a day off from Referral World to spend time with family yesterday. My dad and brother visited from out of town and brought my mom's ashes. It was the first time we'd seen each other since late January (just after my Mom passed) and had a wonderful time catching up, honoring Mom, and we even went bowling! It was the first time in nearly three decades we'd all bowled together. We all felt Mom's presence with us (and I think she helped me as I won both games)!

Time is precious and not guaranteed. Please be sure to make time for and make memories with those you love.

Grifin's NEW $20 Signup and Referral Bonuses Promo [US]!

https://grifin.app.link/OwEoa7ucgxb - code FNJPA8

Grifin just released a new increased promo: $20 signup bonus when you sign up and deposit or invest $5 (your choice) and $20 unlimited referral bonuses! The standard bonuses are $5, and while Grifin will typically offer boosted referral promotions once a month, this is only the second time in the year I've referred Grifin that I've seen a signup bonus this high. You'll want to act fast on this one as the promo ends 3/16 at 11:59 PM in your time zone.

One thing to note is that Grifin recently implemented a monthly $5 subscription fee (with cheaper annual/lifetime options). While I don't love subscription fees, I signed up for Grifin's lifetime subscription; it was a no-brainer since I've earned nearly $4K in bonuses since signing up for Grifin last year. More info on Grifin and this promotion here.

Claim[dot]co Hits Referral World [iOS Only, Limited US Cities]!

A new iOS-only app hit Referral World this morning called Claim. I tried installing the app to test it out but it is only available to residents of Austin (TX), Atlanta (GA), Boston (MA), Chicago (IL), Dallas-FW and (TX), Los Angeles (CA), New York (NY), Philadelphia (PA), and Washington (DC). Since I don't live in one of those cities, I was added to the waitlist.
image
I cannot confirm all of these details since I'm waitlisted, so I'm reporting what I know based on referral posts I've seen and also from reviewing details on Claim's website. Based on my understanding of the app, Claim is offering a $10 cashback bonus to either Starbucks or Chipotle (determined by which referral code you use). And it sounds like there may be an equivalent referral bonus as you refer others, and the app gives you the choice of which retailer you want to refer (you're offered one referral link for Chipotle and a separate one for Starbucks).

Reviewing how the app works, it sounds like you may be rewarded in "Claims" which can be redeemed for the rewards, though I'm not sure.
image
I'll provide an update once I've learned more. I don't have a referral link (since I'm waitlisted). If you've signed up for Claim and have a link(s), email me your links at [email protected]. I may just include them in this article. And if you have additional information about Claim not already in this article, please include it in your email.

Chime's $100 Signup, $100 + $10-$10K Referral Bonuses [US]!

https://www.chime.com/r/johnmegowan/

Chime just started a new, limited-time promotion. You'll get a $100 signup bonus when you open a new Chime account and make a qualifying $200+ ACH transfer (which can be through direct deposit from your employer, or through various ACH transfers from Chase, One Finance, and more. You'll get $100 referral bonuses for the first 10 people you refer each calendar year, and through 4/2, you'll also get an extra bonus worth between $10 and $10,000. According to Chime's Terms, it's most likely the bonus will be $10 (80% chance), but you have a 10% chance to score an additional $50, 10% chance of scoring an additional $100 and a much smaller - but not impossible - chance of receiving $1k or $10K.

Flash's $10 Limited-Time Referral Promo [US, INDIA]

The popular cashback app, Flash, first went viral in Referral World in late 2024 and now has a handful of limited-time promotions. These promotions appear to be offered to new members and targeted existing members:

  • The maximum people you can refer has doubled from 100 to 200 referrals

  • Referral bonuses have doubled from $5 to $10

  • Some members have a "refer 3, get an extra $10" promo

  • Rewards can be redeemed for Airbnb, Amazon, H&M, Lyft, Macys, Nike, Starbucks, and Walmart gift cards

image

Since I signed up, I earned and cashed out over $800 to Amazon and Macy's gift cards. And mind you, this was when the referral bonus was much lower (ranging from $3.33-$5).

Check Your Email, You May Have an Evolve Refund Coming!

Have you ever banked with Yotta or other banks that, at some point in the last few years, switched from Evolve Bank and Trust to Synapse Brokerage? Earlier today, I received an email from Evolve Bank and Trust stating that they've discovered funds stemming from my Yotta Saving balance that I'm owed:
image

I'm not up to speed with when or this occurred, though I remember reporting on a handful of app-based banks around that time that completely shut down. A quick Google search revealed that Yotta's transition from Evolve to Synapse occurred sometime in 2023. I also found an interesting read: a PSA post made 4 months ago in the r/yotta subreddit (link).

According to the email, I should receive a PayPal payment tomorrow or there. The email also included a claim number, which I looked up, and I am owed $74.13.

Apps Left Behind, Pt 3!

This is the third installment of RWN climbing up on its soapbox in elder fashion and reminding Referral World of older apps with active bonuses that newer, shinier OTN apps have foreshadowed. In a sea of fly-by-nighters, bait-and-switchers, and "New! New! New!" viral apps, these "tried and true" apps have been around the block, have proven themselves time and time again but have flown under the radar in recent months (or even years):

  • Discover IT - https://refer.discover.com/mpho20027 - This is one of the EASIEST credit card signup bonuses to trigger (assuming you qualify). You'll get $100 in statement credit when you sign up for a Discover IT credit card and make any $1 or more purchase within three months. $100 referral bonuses, as well! Before signing up, you can check to see if you will be approved with no harm to your credit by filling out this form: https://www.discovercard.com/application/preapproval/initial - IMPORTANT: If you use this form to check your status and do qualify, you need to back out of the form and apply using a referral link - i.e., in a new tab/window - so that you and your referrer receive the bonuses. More info here.

  • Privacy - https://privacy.com/join/H3S9S - code H3S9S - $5 when you sign up using my referral link (Privacy lets you generate smart, virtual debit cards to use online). I highly recommend this free app to anyone who values protecting their money while shopping online! See my featured post here.

  • Rakuten [US, Canada] - https://www.rakuten.com/r/MPHO202?eeid=28187 - This is one of the OG cashback portal apps/sites that awards you $30 when you sign up and make $30+ in purchase(s) at any of 3,500 popular retailers using Rakuten's cashback portal. $30 unlimited referral bonuses, as well. More info here.
