Qapital – Mobile Banking App Review ($25 Referral Bonus)

Update 5/8/20: Referral bonus is now $25. No $100 bonus for referring 3 friends any longer. Hat tip to reader Joe G. There is also a $3 monthly fee, this is waived for the first 30 days.

Update: You can now get $100 if you refer 3 friends, in addition to the $20 per friend you normally get.

Qapital is a mobile banking app that has been around since 2015. Qapital’s main selling point is that you can create long and short term goals and then rules and goals to help you reach those goals. For example you might set up a daily or weekly transfer to save to a vacation. Qapital will then transfer that money into a special account designated for that vacation.

Referral Bonus

You can refer friends and you’ll both receive a $20 bonus if the person being referred opens up a Qapital account and settles a deposit into a Qapital goal. For every three friends you refer from March 15th – March 31st you’ll earn an additional $100 (up to a maximum of $500).

Share Your Referrals

  • DO NO PUT ANY INFORMATION IN THE COMMENT OTHER THAN YOUR REFERRAL LINK.
  • Do not thread referrals, just leave your referral as a new line.
  • Leave your referral once.
  • We will lock comments in a few days.

Final Verdict

Personally I don’t see a lot of value in Qapital, it looks like the goal accounts don’t earn any interest and I’d much rather have my money in a high yield savings accounts. I think most people will get a better outcome by sitting down and looking at existing spending and then creating a traditional budget rather than trying to automate that process. I’m not going to give my checking account information for a $20 bonus, but I know some readers will be happy to do so and thus this post.

Summary of requirements:
1. Set up one savings goal, which can be as little as $1.
2. Have at least $20 in your account 45 days from opening
3. Pay one membership. You automatically get the $6 a month option but go to the membership section on the app and you can downgrade to $3 a month.
Hope this helps! If so, feel free to use my referral link below.

How soon can one get the $25 bonus? Joined in one week ago and set a goal, setup rules for $1/day, it has deposit 5 times, still no bonus yet. I only have the saving goals setup, did not open their spending account though. Do I need to signup the spending account??
