Check the current invitation campaign, country-specific funding and reward rules, and the difference between selling a share and withdrawing its value.

Investing involves risk. Prices can go down as well as up and may become worthless. This is not investment advice.

Read your campaign before funding

The invitation can reward both participants with random fractional shares. Country, account, customer history, referral route and funding control eligibility. A working link does not prove an active personal entitlement.

Use the Trading 212 product assessment before opening. No dealing commission does not remove FX, funding, exchange or tax costs. Do not open a pension or commit bill money just for a share.

A checkable claim sequence

  1. Save the live country-specific reward, qualifying account, minimum funding, dates and new-customer exclusions. Do not assume CFD or Cash ISA qualifies.
  2. Use the accepted invitation at the required registration stage; if it fails, ask official support how to attach the invitation before you apply.
  3. Complete identity and country-specific funding within 10 days of account creation. Both parties matter; allow processing time and check bank-side fees.
  4. Inspect allocation within the stated 3-business-day window after qualification; save the reward transaction and app lockup end date.
  5. Decide whether to hold or sell with market risk understood. Selling, settlement, reward withdrawal and your own deposit's withdrawal are separate conditions.

Evidence limits and recovery clauses

The official PDF, last updated 28 September 2026, allows share or cash rewards as specified on the website. Reward shares have an £8–£100 range for GBP accounts, with weighted probabilities; do not assume a usual value or the maximum.

Clause 3.10 locks reward value for 30 days from crediting. Selling at a loss locks only the actual proceeds; other assets are not covered by that reward lock. Clause 4.1 permits recovery for reversing qualifying steps, including closing the account or withdrawing all deposited funds within seven days after allocation, plus other abuse or breaches.

The old terms endpoint blocked retrieval, but its official help page linked a readable current campaign PDF. It confirms the dated programme, previous in-scope account and promotional-reward exclusions, five referrer rewards and the immediate referral-ID route (or the website's specified period). Above the referrer cap, eligible new invitees can still receive rewards. Minimum funding points to the account's live Terms and Fees, whose page was blocked; confirm it before depositing.

£8–£100 in shares

Open an Invest account, Stocks ISA or SIPP through our invite between 21 September and 3 November 2026, then deposit at least that account's minimum within 10 calendar days of opening (£1 for the Stocks ISA). You get a share worth £8 to £100 for a GBP account, picked at random with higher values less common. Its value is locked for 30 days from crediting, and reversal and recovery rules apply. Keep a note of your opening date and when the 30-day lock ends.

Requirement: The account's minimum deposit within 10 calendar days of opening: £1 for the Stocks ISA; check the Invest or SIPP minimum in the app

FAQ

Is the £8–£100 range verified for GBP accounts?
Yes: current PDF clause 3.6 specifies GBP/EUR depending on primary account currency, with weighted probabilities. No usual £8–£12 outcome or universal £1 funding is established; check the live account minimum.
When is allocation?
Within 3 business days after both parties verify and meet the specified funding requirement. Tasks must be met within 10 days of account creation.
Does selling restart the 30 days?
No. PDF clause 3.10 starts the 30 days when the reward is credited. It does not lock your other assets, but separate settlement and recovery rules apply.
Where does a SIPP referral reward go?
Into Invest. If you lack an active Invest account, activate one within 10 days of qualification or forfeit the SIPP referral reward; the three-business-day allocation clock then starts at activation.
