$45 Per Family Member From Sharebuilder (May 2008)

26

Hmmm…I think it’s time for another Sharebuilder code…here we go!

ShareBuilder is an online investment tool - built for individuals across all income levels. You simply deposit money into your ShareBuilder account, purchase a stock, and then track your success. They also regularly hold promotions that deposit extra money into new accounts. (Never open an account without a promotion!) The ShareBuilder promotion with the highest yield is currently a $50 offer…ShareBuilder will deposit $50 into each new account opened (and you can even open an account for your kids!). The minimum investment is $5, and within 4-6 weeks, you’ll receive a $50 deposit into your ShareBuilder account. At that point, you have the option of purchasing more stock and increasing your funds, or simply withdrawing the money.

Below are the step-by-step instructions for opening a ShareBuilder account, and receiving $45 for each family member. (It looks scary, but only because I over-simplified :) .)

1.) Click HERE to visit ShareBuilder’s site and click the Open an Account tab
2.) Select Individual Account
3.) Select the box next to “I’m responding to a promotion“, enter the 50GO28 Promotion Code, and click Next
4.) From the Your Information page, select No (indicating you do not have another ShareBuilder account)
5.) Complete all required fields for Contact Information, then click Next
6.) Complete all required fields for Investor Identification, then click Next
7.) Complete all required fields for Employment, then click Next
8.) Select the Agreement box directly above “Review Your Account Information
9.) Click Create Account
10.) From the Welcome Page, you should see your Account Number, Account Type, Promotion, and message reading, “Thank you, your promotion code has been accepted. You will receive a $50 account bonus approximately 4 weeks after your first transaction.
11.) Click Continue
12.) Select Basic Program, then click Next
13.) Select Build my account over time with an Automatic Investment Plan, then click Next
14.) Select Create your own Automatic Investment Plan, then click Next
15.) Click HERE to open a separate window to search for stocks (do not close the window from Step 14)
16.) Locate a stock whose shares are priced under $1, note the stock symbol, and close the window
17.) In the original ShareBuilder account window, enter the stock symbol from Step 16 into the Symbol field
18.) Enter 5 ($5.00) in the Amount window, then click Add to Plan
19.) The window will refresh with the selected stock displayed in Your Automatic Investments - click Next
20.) Set your investment schedule frequency to One-Time, select an investment day, then click Next
21.) Select Automatically fund via electronic funds transfer (Free), enter your checking/savings account information, then click Next
22.) Authorize the transfer by entering the last 4 digits of your Social Security Number - click Next
23.) Review the information entered, then select Create Plan
24.) Check your Email Inbox for 2 emails:
a.) Welcome to ShareBuilder
b.) Your Promotion Code has been Accepted
25.) Receive $50 (added to your ShareBuilder account) within 4-6 weeks
26.) Either transfer the $50 to your bank account and let the $1 stocks remain…or continue buying and selling stocks to earn even more!
27.) Repeat steps 1-26 for each member of your family!

    Aweome! I’m doing this right now!

  2. Stephanie Chance says:

    I did this last time and it totally works! I transferred the $50 for my daughter’s and my account to an ING savings account, and my husband decided he wanted to play stock market with his and his son’s. He says he’s doing pretty well. I wonder if I cancel my accounts, could I do this again?

  3. Stephanie says:

    Do you know when this expires?

  4. Jennifer says:

    When I followed your link, a promo code prepopulated. I took it out and entered the code from the instructions, but it said it could not be found. I went back again and used the promo code that had came up, and when I got to the “Welcome” page, it said I would be credited with $25 when I completed my first transaction.

  5. Cortney says:

    I just did it and mine also said 25.00? I wonder if it is because I already have an account???

  6. Melynda says:

    I used the slightly different code of 50GO28 and it worked great! Try that one.

  7. :-P I’ve corrected my dyslexia from this morning…thanks, Melynda! 50GO28 is the correct code - sorry all!

  8. Lisa says:

    If I want to open an account for my son, do I click on account for a child or an individual account? thanks!

  9. Michelle says:

    I opened the account, but only got one email (Welcome). I didn’t get the other email (promotional code being accepted). I hope it will be ok!

  10. Meghan says:

    I just opened mine.
    Easy Peasy!
    Thanks!

  11. Misty says:

    Do you have to file Taxes on the $50.00 at the end of the year? Someone told me you did.

  12. Stacy says:

    Hi,
    I just wanted to respond to Lisa’s question about opening an account for a child….I did one for my daughter, I clicked on “Account for a child” and then “custodial account”. It worked fine and I got approved for the $50 too.

    Thanks for the code Jennifer!
    Stacy

  13. Erin says:

    Umm, probably DUMB question but, can I open a second account? I did the Sharebuilder thing the last time around, can I do it again???

  14. Andrea says:

    Did this last time…how can I do it again???

  15. Lisa says:

    Thanks for the response Stacy! And thanks for the code Jennifer, it worked perfectly.

  16. Debbie says:

    I found this information regarding sharebuilder from http://www.bargaineering.com/articles/sharebuilder-50-bonus-revisit.html

    Sign up to Sharebuilder today!

    Regarding Multiple Accounts: Also, I’ve personally confirmed that you can sign up to multiple Sharebuilder accounts (but stagger your account activations over a few weeks, don’t apply for 50 accounts at once or they will deny your promotion codes!) and get the bonus money for each individual new account that you open. I’ve used the first two, ENTERTAIN50 and HH50LOGIN, and plan on opening up enough accounts to get all $645 (and some free books) in free money below.

    Will this work again if you already have an account? Thanks in advance for your help!

  18. Another way to make quick $25 is to open a Revolution Money Exchange Account, which is a competitor to PayPal. You don’t have to put any money down. All it takes is 3 minutes to register.

  19. Chaz Sliger says:

    I’ve been asked to check this out for my daughter because I’m an active investor.
    Why choose penny stocks?

    16.) Locate a stock whose shares are priced under $1, note the stock symbol, and close the window

    Is this required for some reason?
    Regards
    Chaz

  20. Maranda says:

    I’m new to this, so I just wanted to ask a dumb question. Will it continue to take $5.00 out every month, or can I just cancel it after I get my $45.00??

  21. L.F. says:

    Both of these ShareBuilder codes are expired: ENTERTAIN50 and HH50LOGIN
    I did notice that the Basic acct. charges $4 for the trade…but straight from your checking acct. is free? Excellent!

  22. Tina B says:

    Just wanted to let you know that I just received my $50 so this works!! thanks so much!

  23. Jon says:

    Thanks for the info. I have received $50 two times (waited until I got paid to submit again) under the same account & have opened my 3rd today.

  24. Marci says:

    Is the promotion for 50GO28 still going on, also how do you take advantage if you already have an account ? Can you have one or more ongoing accounts or can you open more than one account at a time ? Can anyone tell me.
