How to Take Advantage of Fidelity’s Promo
To take advantage of the Fidelity Cash Promotion, you should open a single new account or opt for the starter pack. There are some specific account types that are eligible for the offer, but that is not restrictive as they are also the most common account types.
All that is required is to fund the new account with at least $50 within the first 15 days. Being calendar days, that means you’ll need to make your deposit during the first two weeks in the account. Funding doesn’t have to be done all at once, but the net value of all deposits should add up to $50 to trigger the bonus payment.
Eligible Accounts
Fidelity is looking to get new investors to sign up with the Fidelity Starter Pack, but it is also possible to sign up for a single account as well.
Here are your options:
The Fidelity Starter Pack – This option is an ‘account package’ that includes a brokerage account and a cash management account. The Starter Pack is good for investors looking for a brokerage account and a bank/spending account.
The Fidelity Account – This option is the brokerage account. You can opt for a margin or cash version of the Fidelity Account.
The Fidelity Cash Management Account – This option is the bank account. You can choose this account if you are looking for cash management options.
Fidelity Roth IRA & Fidelity Traditional IRA – These IRA accounts are the only IRA options available for this bonus offer. Rollover IRAs are not eligible.
Fidelity IRA Bonus Details
There are some things to consider if you would like to open an IRA to take advantage of this offer.
First, you must be able to contribute to the IRA to be eligible. Your earned income can’t be less than the IRA contribution that you make. And, maxing out the contribution will also disqualify the account from receiving the bonus.

Once the bonus is paid, the bonus funds ($100) should remain in the account for 90 days.

These are: Rollover IRAs, mutual fund accounts, trust accounts, business accounts, fiduciary accounts, 529 College Fund accounts, and annuities.
