Firstly, this is a somewhat duplicate post. I assumed that a repost would be appropriate in this instance due to the change in requirements for the offer, the 6+ month age of the previous post, and the fact that this is a very good sign up bonus that received surprisingly minimal attention when first posted.
Contrary to the title of the previous post, the referral offer now has three requirements:
• The referred person must not have a pre-existing account on any eToro sites or apps.
• The referred person must perform account verification, and deposit at least $200 USD (~$260 at the time of this post) to their account within 6 months of registration.
• Both the referring and referred persons must trade at least $100 USD (~$130 at the time of this post) within 30 days of the referred person's initial deposit.
The full (updated Dec 16 2020) terms and conditions can be found here.
Upon completing the requirements, the $100 USD bonus is credited to both the referred and referring persons' accounts within 7-15 business days, after which it is available for immediate trade or withdrawal.
Two associated costs should be noted in this process. The first of which is the required $100 USD trade, which may incur a cost depending on the time that the position is kept open, and the price movement of the asset itself. In my experience, simply buying and immediately selling $200 USD worth of BTC cost approximately $3 USD. The second associated cost is the withdrawal fee, which is $5 USD. To summarise, the $100 USD bonus can be achieved for a commitment of less than $10 AUD.
Due to previous complications with receiving the bonus, OzBargain has changed the referral system to private messaging - meaning you can send a message to someone with an eToro account using the below referrals (just ask them if they are interested in taking part, and what their referral link is). If you're having problems getting through to your random user, feel free to send me a message and I'll give you my link.
How long does verification take before you can trade?
