FREE Cash, Bonuses and Money!!

I want to give back to you! Here are some free bonuses, free cash, or free money just for opening an account of some kind.

ING Direct – Free $25 instantly if you open an Electric Orange or Orange Savings Account (currently yielding 3%) with at least $250. That’s an instant 10% return just for saving! Start your emergency fund or save up for that new toy!

This is easily my favorite online savings account and I’ve been with them since 2005. Highly recommended with great customer service and competitive rates. You can link the savings account to a checking account from another bank so you don’t even have to switch banks!

Contact me and I’ll send you a referral link. You can only get the bonus if you open through a referral link.

Prosper – Get $25 free to get started after you fund your first loan as a lender (minimum $50). This is the next revolution in finance called micro-finance where multiple people fund one loan with smaller micro-payments of as little as $50. This spreads the risk across many people and lowers the risk for you.

This is the first person-to-person lending marketplace in America with over 670,000 members and over $130 million in loans.

You can bid on eBay-style loan listings and you can view credit ratings, income information, etc. to help you make a good decision. I personally won’t lend to anyone with less than AA credit and I’m averaging a 9% return on my loans.

Email me and I’ll send you a referral link.

Zecco – Free China Shakes the World book ($15 value) PLUS I’ll personally send you $10 to your Paypal account (must have Paypal account to qualify) when you open and fund your account!

Zecco is the first online broker to offer free stock trades (up to 10 per month with minimum $2500 in equity) or only $4.50 per trade (if less than $2500). No minimums to open and it’s my main online stock broker. Highly recommended if you want to get started with stock trading. Fees are what kill returns so if you can lower fees as much as possible, it really helps your potential capital gains!

Email me and I’ll send you a referral link. Email me again when you open and fund your account and I’ll send you $10 to your Paypal account!

Scottrade – Get 3 free online trades as a sign-up bonus just for opening an account. Scottrade only charges $7 per trade, has local branches across the country and has great customer service! I have my Roth IRA with them and I can’t recommend them enough!

Contact me and I’ll send you a referral link. Your 3 free trades will be available once you open your account.

Sharebuilder – Get a $55 cash bonus (if you’re a Costco member, otherwise $25) to invest. All you have to do is open an account (no minimum) and trade.

Sharebuilder offers automatic trades at $4 a trade or $9.95 real-time trades. ING Direct recently bought them out so you can expect the same level of customer service. Although I prefer Zecco over Sharebuilder as a discount stock broker, this is a good option for anyone who doesn’t have much to invest.

Contact me and I’ll send you a referral link. Your cash bonus will be available 4-6 weeks after your first transaction.
