When do the free stocks arrive? I did the initial deposit and draw and it showed 2 free stocks but I don't see anything in the account yet.
It took a few days for the free stocks to show up. When it does, the stocks will show up under your home and portfolio buttons in the app.

To add to the other posters, first stock is only up to $30, and the 2-5 stocks can go up to $1540 with varying payoff percentages.
How long do you have to keep your initial deposit in the account? I see in the Terms and Conditions that it says you can’t sell the stocks you won after 90 days,however, I do not see anything about the initial deposit. For instance, if I deposit $100 could I withdraw it after 15 days?

I’m wondering, could you stack the Swagbucks offer for 5,000 Swagbucks with TradeUp’s Welcome Gift? So if I make a deposit of $150, will I get 2 free stocks and 5k Swagbucks? Looking forward to your replies!
Yes. I can confirm that this works. Believe you only need $100 as well. In the past, I have been able to open the swagbucks link and then copy and paste a referral link into that exact tab to get the swagbucks and referral link too
