- There is no cash alternative; the reward is paid as reward shares of ETFs.
- Reward shares are typically deposited within 30-45 days of the referred client's initial deposit settling.
- Acorns can decline, withhold, rescind, delay, or claw back reward shares if it suspects fraud or a violation of terms.
- Referred client must open an Acorns Invest account to receive the bonus.
- Round-ups deposits do not count toward the qualifying deposit.
