Never got my referral bonus & their support team is a joke
Their support takes more than two weeks to reply. Not impressed
DP:
1) Trade GUSD would trigger the bonus. Zero processing fee or whatever. 1:1 to USD.
2) Chose USDC as the bonus payout currency. Low processing fee (0.99 or something very small) and low fluctuation. Got $73.18 in cash after selling the bonus in USDC.
Just traded $110. How soon will I receive the reward? Also, do I need to hold the fund in there?
Opened an account and transferred 100 in. Didn't make any trade immediately to be safe. The next time they emailed me that my account will be closed with no reason included. Waited five days or so for the funds to settle and then transferred it out. Weird experience.
Hey Roy, They never gave an explanation for closing the account?
I received at least 3 spam texts after signing this up....
Probably too early to churn this lol???
Tip: select to get payout in USDC. Lowest fee one I’ve tried. I had it set for LTC which I did my initial trade in and they gobbled up around 4 percent as trading fees! No way around if AFAIK. Just comes with fees deducted
What about GUSD?
Thanks for the tip! Where in the menu does one select the bonus payout in USDC?
Go to the referral page and set which coin you want to be paid out on there IIRC
Found it. Select "Rewards" and then select "Earning USDC"
I did the $101 trade with GUSD but saw no notification that it triggered the $100 trade so I traded $105 USDC. What is the lag between trade and showing requirement has been met?
Did you get it, Eric?
I did just took a day to register
I get spam nearly everyday from a gemini email address that got compromised. The scammers are relentless with varying schemes sent to this email address that are made to look legitimate.
Between that, some coinbase hack and a trezor mailing list hack I get nearly daily phishing emails/texts/calls telling me I need to enter my passwords/transfer all my funds to a provided wallet.
