I got a targeted offer via email and on app homepage newsfeed for existing user and previous buyer of crypto. I haven’t bought crypto on SoFi since 2020 (damnit should’ve held it). Of course I tried to get the promotion done early, bought shitty ass Tezos before the recent sell off and went instant -15%. Beware, even though I placed a $25 order, I was only charged $24.96. I chatted with CSR and they told me to follow up after a week if I don’t get my bonus automatically.
“Trade crypto and earn 1,000 rewards points
Bitcoin is down over 30% from its all-time highs, which has caught lots of investors’ attention. Thinking about your next crypto trade?

Terms and conditions apply. Earn up to $10 in reward points when you buy $25 or more of crypto on your next crypto trade and when redeemed to SoFi Money, SoFi Invest, or towards an eligible SoFi loan.

Got an email about this today even though I did this last year. Stop sending me stuff I’m not even eligible for.
“There is a minimum of $10 to buy. There is a minimum sale of 0.001 BTC, 0.01 ETH, 0.1 LTC. SoFi will apply a markup of up to 1.25% for each crypto transaction.”
.
Looks like this offer has decreased.
receive the $10 Bitcoin Crypto bonus offer, you must open a new SoFi Crypto account through the signup link you were given and buy at least $10 worth of any cryptocurrency within 7 Days.
Still works on 12/28/2020
I got $25 worth of BTC about 5 minutes after I purchased $10 worth of BCH. At the moment not able to sell that BTC. The order gets automatically cancelled (after submitting) with reason=SYSTEM_CANCELLED
I probably need to wait until tomorrow. Maybe it is related to the $10 I transferred not having really been withdrawn from my checking account yet. They became available to invest immediately after creating the transfer request, but obviously have not been transferred yet.
This worked as of 11/2/20
Have had Sofi bank and invest account for a while. Just saw the simple banner “Get 25 after investing 10” banner in Sofi app and bought 10 bucks of BTC, saw 25 bucks added less than hour later.
$25 bonus posted within 5 mins of buying $10 of BTC. Probably will never buy BTC thru SoFi, as when I bought it, it was $100 over what it showed at current price. Not sure if that was SoFi taking their cut/fees.
SoFi definitely takes a cut that isn’t shown on the buy/sell page. I finally was able to take my $35 BTC bonus out with no “loss”. BTC was down the entire time since i was awarded the bonus. Definitely not for me. Don’t want to get a heart attack.
DP: Offer active as of today. Thanks
Just checked SoFi and saw an offer to invest $25 in crypto, get $25 extra in bitcoin.
Isn’t this deal better? Invest $10 & get $25 bonus…
Yeah though for both p1 and p2, we hadn’t been able to get that crypto deal and this one popped up yesterday for us.
Everybody is able to get the $10/$25 deal it’s on the crypto mainpage
My apologies for being unclear. We were able to see that deal but when we log in, only the $25 for $25 deal was available to us (we use different laptops & browsers) so perhaps its targeted?
Maybe
