How do I qualify?

To earn the cash reward as shown in the promotional offer, you must first become a Robinhood Gold subscriber.

When will I get my reward?

If you're eligible for a cash reward, it will be delivered to your account by October 26, 2024. We'll send you a notification when you can claim your cash!

Your cash reward will expire if it isn’t claimed within 30 days. After you claim it, you can use it to invest right away, but you can't withdraw it from your account for an additional 30 days.

Taxes

The cash reward you receive through this promotion will be reported as Other income in your 1099-MISC form. Because of IRS minimum earnings requirements, you may not receive a 1099-MISC form if your cash reward and any other funds (e.g., stock reward funds) are valued at less than $600.

As with all tax forms, you’ll be able to download a consolidated 1099 form (which includes the 1099-MISC) starting in mid-February of every year. If you have questions about your specific tax situation, please consult with a tax professional.
