Acorns: Sign Up To Factor & Get $60 ($27 Money Maker & Free Food)

Update 2/28/23: $60 cashback on Acorns Earn through March 6, 2023, 11:59 PM PST. The first box of the 6 meals a week option is $32.38 with the promotion that is automatically applied when clicking through the Acorns link. It does take 120 days to post.(ht LEGOProBuilder)

The Offer

No direct link to offer, search for ‘Factor’

  • Swagbucks is offering 6,000 Swagbucks (worth $65) when you sign up to Factor and spend $35. Must use promo code Save50Factor

The Fine Print

  • Must use code Save50Factor to earn SB.
  • Please allow up to 45 days after subscribing to Factor for SB to be credited to your account.
  • This offer is only available to new Factor customers.
  • Must enter valid sign-up information, including credit card information to earn SB. Offer may only be redeemed once (1) per user.

Our Verdict

The best plan to select is 4 meals per week at $15 per meal, when you use the Save50Factor code you end up paying $35 after the fees. This means you can make $25 and get four meals for free. Some readers have issues with tracking with Swagbucks, but I haven’t run into the same problems (make sure you’re not using any adblocker or VPN) so up to you if it’s worth that risk or not. If you’re new to Swagbucks, please read our review. You can also get a bonus of up to $13 by using a referral link.

I don’t see the Factor offer at Swagbucks or Mypoints. Dead?

Will did not update all of the post. The swagbucks reference is all old stuff, you are suppose to be paying attention to the acorn portion, hence the title.

Acorns Earn does require an active Acorns subscription. Acorns Earn offers take 3-7 days to show up as pending on the ledger and 120 days to post so you’d need to maintain the subscription for at least 4 months. Their cheapest subscription is the $1/mo Acorns Assist tier. I got my subscription through the Swagbucks deal posted here. If you recently closed your Acorns, they’ll offer a $15 bonus to rejoin at some point.

LEGOProBuilder I came here to ask the same question..
I see 2 Acorns offer posted recently at doc, so wondering if it is worth it to rejoin. So are you planning to keep the subscription after you get the cb or close it again?

I also got the $15 rejoin offer a few days back
thnaks

fdic I will keep my subscription for a while, even after these offers payout since the Acorns Earn offers have more than paid for the membership so far. There are only so many meal kit apps so I’m hoping they add more clickthrough and card-linked offers.

The rejoin offer is a money-maker, so I’d say it’s worth subscribing again just for that. You can always downgrade to the $1/mo Acorns Assist tier after the first month. With Acorns Earn, you need to maintain the Acorns membership until the offer is paid out which usually takes 120 days.

Factor is owned by hellofresh now, so maybe no future clawbacks now.

120 days to post isn’t worth the headache for me personally lol. Half the time these things never track.

Not sure if Acorns would have similar clawback issues as the Prodege sites (Swagbucks, MyPoints, etc.) but it does take 120 days to post.  Chuck  William Charles

It is 8900 MP on MyPoints. It costs $20 for the 4 meals per week subscription, so about $39 money maker. Points went pending almost instantly. It is shown as 5000 SB on Swagbucks, but says 4000 SB in the terms.  William Charles

I have taken screenshots of the offer. If they claw it back, I’ll fight for sure.

DP: Points clawed back 15 months after posting. I stayed subscribed for 47 days, and complied with all terms of the offer. Opened a ticket and will update.

Update: points reinstated 5 days after opening a ticket. I should also mention that I had misremembered, and that I had actually maintained my membership for 4 months, rather than 47 days.

Just happened to me today, 3 years after staying subscribed and complying with all terms of the offer. Opened a ticket as well. Jeez.

LOLZ mine was clawed back today more than a year later.

I have a very high tolerance in this hobby, but I might just have to write-off Swagbucks once and for all. It’s just too much of a headache every time – and though I likely end up on top, I hate the idea of giving them any business at all.
