Robinhood Gold rewards
Only direct recipients of the incentive offer either through an email, a push notification, an in-app card, or a reward center offer from Robinhood who meet all of the qualifications are eligible to receive a cash reward. The promotion isn’t available to the general public.
To receive a cash reward, you must be a Robinhood Gold subscriber and remain a Gold subscriber through October 24, 2023. As a Gold subscriber, you must make deposits into your brokerage account between July 13, 2023 and July 25, 2023 for them to count toward your reward.
You can calculate your net deposits by adding up all deposits initiated between July 13, 2023 and July 25, 2023 and subtracting all initiated withdrawals or canceled deposits between July 13, 2023 and October 24, 2023. You can find the Offer details in the communications you received from Robinhood.
If you're eligible for a cash reward, it’ll be delivered to your account by October 31, 2023. We'll notify you through an email and a push notification about 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 30 days.
The funds you receive through the cash reward promotion will be reported as miscellaneous income on your Form 1099-MISC. Because of IRS minimum earnings requirements, you may not receive a Form 1099-MISC if your total miscellaneous income (stock rewards) is valued at less than $600.
As with all tax forms, you can download a Consolidated 1099 PDF (which includes the 1099-MISC) starting in mid-February each year. If you have questions about your specific tax situation, consult with a tax professional.
Eligibility: The Robinhood Gold reward is valid only for Robinhood customers who successfully fund their Robinhood brokerage account and are enrolled in Robinhood Gold between July 13, 2023 and July 25, 2023 and maintain enrollment through October 24, 2023, and keep qualifying funds in their Robinhood account through at least October 24, 2023. To be eligible for this reward you must have received the offer communications from Robinhood directly. This offer isn’t available to the general public. Robinhood may decline requests to enroll in the offer at its discretion.
Offer: The net total is the total amount of all initiated deposits from July 13, 2023 at 8:00:00 AM PT through July 25, 2023 at 11:59:59 PM PT minus all initiated withdrawals or canceled deposits from July 13, 2023 at 8:00:00 AM PT through October 24, 2023 at 11:59:59 PM PT. A cash reward based on the customer’s net total, calculated based on the Robinhood communication to the customer, will be automatically deposited to the customer's Robinhood account by October 31, 2023.
Withdrawals include, but aren’t limited to a debit card transaction from the customer’s brokerage account, originated and non-originated ACH and ACAT. However, a withdrawal shall not include the purchase of an investment option, such as a stock, on Robinhood’s or Robinhood’s affiliates’ platforms.
Limitations: Limit one offer per qualified funding of the account, with a maximum of one account per customer. The cash value must be explicitly claimed by the user. If the cash value isn’t claimed within 30 days of the date it was received, the reward will expire. The cash value of the reward can’t be withdrawn from the customer’s Robinhood Financial account for 30 days after the reward is claimed. The cash reward may be delayed, declined, or rescinded in Robinhood’s sole discretion if, for example, Robinhood determines that there may be circumstances indicating fraud or a violation of these Terms. Robinhood reserves the right to change or restrict the offer terms, or terminate the offer, at any time without notice. This offer is valid even if other Robinhood offers have already been accepted. The offer isn’t transferable, saleable, or valid in conjunction with certain other offers, and is available to U.S. residents only. Employees, contractors, or persons similarly associated with Robinhood or a Robinhood affiliate; members of their household; registered representatives of broker-dealers, employees of any securities regulatory organization or exchange; and employees of any market maker aren’t eligible. Other restrictions may apply. Participation in this promotion doesn’t constitute a solicitation of a security or a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any given security. Robinhood doesn’t provide investment advice and doesn’t hereby recommend any security or transaction. This isn’t an offer or solicitation in any jurisdiction where we aren’t authorized to do business.
Taxes: Consult with your tax advisor about the appropriate tax treatment for this offer and any tax implications associated with receipt of a cash reward before enrolling.
