Split Drop Cash Out and Bonus Changes!
https://splitdrop.com/friend/7676
Split Drop, a popular GPT website that hit Referral World a few months back, changed its cashout and referral bonus program. The great news is that Split Drop now only requires $5 of earned bonuses to cash out (half of the $10 previously required). Split Drop offers several ways to easily earn bonuses through surveys, games, offers, trials, and more.
The "I'm not personally too happy about this change, but it is what it is" news is that Split Drop has also lowered referral bonuses from $5 to $2. Based on what the company has told me, this change applies to existing referrals who haven't yet made their first withdrawal to trigger the referral bonus (not just future signups). Optimistically speaking, remember that the referral bonuses are contingent on referees making their first withdrawal. So hopefully, making the withdrawal process more attainable will compensate for the lower bonus amount. Because referring ten people at $5 per person sounds great, but if only two people reached $10 and the rest gave up, you would only get $10 in bonuses. If those eight remaining people go back in and withdraw at $5 - thanks to the lowered threshold - you'll now get a $2 referral bonus for each of them, meaning $16 in referral bonuses. Time will tell how the changes ultimately impact Split Drop's participants and referrers.
Another positive note: Split Drop has added Litecoin as a payout method. When withdrawing, you can now choose PayPal, Litecoin, and several gift card options.

Wishew Delays Launch Date, Payouts to 4/29!
Wishew, the pre-launch app that was originally set to launch their app on March 20, sent out an email this morning to inform us they've moved the date to April 29. They don't mention specific reasons in the email but state "the goal of providing all our dreamers with the best social experience ever," along with April 29th coinciding with World Wish Day (the national holiday sponsored by the Make-A-Wish Foundation).
If you referred Wishew and have been patiently waiting for your referral bonuses to be released, I'm sure you're disappointed by this delay... I know I am. Having said that, know that launch delays aren't uncommon. According to a 2019 Gartner survey, 45% of product launches are delayed by at least one month. Hopefully, this delay will result in a better, smoother experience for both the app launch and our payouts. I will provide updates as I learn of them. In the meantime, be sure to create your first wish if you are waiting on referral bonuses, as that's a requirement to receive your bonuses (see my 3/10 article below for more information on that).
We hope you’re doing wonderfully.
Today, we're reaching out with an important update about Wishew.
In these exhilarating times, our team’s enthusiasm is sky-high, and registrations to our social network continue to pour in from over 23 countries worldwide, thanks in no small part to your unwavering support.With the goal of providing all our dreamers with the best social experience ever, we've decided to postpone the launch of our app to April 29, 2024, coinciding with World Wish Day.
We know you're eager to use the funds collected through our referral program to fulfill your first wish with us, and we understand that waiting a few more days might seem like an eternity. But we assure you, it will be worth it.
Wishew aims to express and support wishes from all over the world, and as you can imagine, a revolutionary social network like this requires unparalleled attention to detail. Therefore, our team will use this additional time to ensure everything meets your expectations.
On this note, we also confirm that the funds collected during our referral program are correctly associated with your account and will be immediately available for use starting from the new launch date.
We ask for your continued support and patience as we polish and optimize the social network you’ve always been waiting for.
Warm regards,
The Wishew TeamPS: Oh, and here's something you'll definitely be pleased to hear: in just a few days, our app will be available for pre-order on both the Android and Apple stores, so buckle up. We'll write to you soon as soon as this feature is enabled!

Future's Instant $5 and Near-Instant $15 Bonuses!
https://getfuturecard.com/22202928232726
Have you signed up for Future yet? It's another great banking app offering impressive signup and referral bonuses. You'll get $5 instantly when you open and fund an account with $10 using a debit card, Cash App, Benmo, or GPay. You can also connect your bank and transfer the $10, though the process is slightly slower than the other methods to receive the bonus.
You'll get another $15 from Future when you spend $50 anywhere. This $15 bonus is received as soon as the spend transaction clears, which can take a few hours or even up to a day. You'll also get your own link for $15 unlimited referral bonuses (you'll receive each bonus once each referral completes the $50 spend requirement).
One cool feature about Future is how they offer 5%+ cash back for paying your power and gas bills with your FutureCard, riding public transit, thrifting, recycling, and other everyday green purchases!
Bonuses are awarded as ClimatePoints which can be instantly converted to cash and spent or withdrawn to another bank, and can be used to redeem various gift cards, electronics, and other rewards.

Did You Make a Wishew?
You may remember Wishew, the pre-launch/waitlist opportunity that went viral three months ago. The $1,000,000 referral pot ran out last month. For any of you who signed up, referred Wishew to others, and earned bonuses, be sure to create a wish ASAP if you haven't already. Per the terms, the funds earned from referrals will be issued as exclusive coupon codes you are to enter, and the funds will be applied toward your wish. Their "Add Wish" feature is already active in your account, and they recommend adding your wish in advance so that when the app launches on March 20, you can fulfill it instantly.
If your first wish is valued less than the amount you earned in referral bonuses, I'm not sure what happens with the remaining balance. For this reason, I recommend creating a wish valued at or above the referral bonus amount you're owed. It will then be up to you to leave the wish open and gather additional funds from the community, or else close your wish and transfer all funds to your bank account.
Text from the screenshot below:
How and when can I use the funds collected during your referral program?
You can use the funds collected during our referral program starting from March 20, 2024, the official launch day of Wishew on Android and Apple Store. To do so, simply add your first wish on our app and enter an exclusive coupon that will automatically allocate all the funds you've collected to your wish. The coupon will be visible, starting from the launch day, in the "rewards" section of your personal profile. If the funds collected are not sufficient to fulfill your first wish, we recommend keeping your wish active to gather the remaining funds through the contribution of other dreamers. Otherwise, you can close your wish and transfer all funds collected up to that point, including funds obtained during our referral initiative, to your bank account. Please note that the "add wish" feature is already active on our website, so we recommend uploading your wish in advance to be ready to fulfill it instantly on launch day. All wish-related content undergoes a moderation process, which may take up to 24 hours. It's important to note that for a wish to be approved, the dreamer must narrate it in first person.
Final Days of Fetch's $1 and $3 Bonuses!
https://www.buymeacoffee.com/johnmego/fetch-1-signup-3-referral-bonuses-ends-3-13
This is a quick reminder that Fetch's increased $1 signup and $3 referral bonus promotion ends on 3/13, giving you three more days to score those bonuses. Also, be sure to check your app. Yesterday, I earned another $1.25 with their "scan any receipt" promotion, which they offer members occasionally.
Fetch is a great way to score gift cards and other cashback rewards simply by scanning your shopping receipts and connecting your Amazon, Walmart, and email accounts to the app. For more information about Fetch, see my featured post here. For similar receipt-scanning and cashback apps, see my Featured Cashback Bonuses post.
TradeUp's New $3,600 Promotion!
https://bit.ly/tradeupbonus - Code: 11D6P3
TradeUp started a brand new promotion at the end of last month: Deposit $100 and get two stocks. Each stock will be worth between $10 (minimum) and $1,800. Your $100 deposit guarantees you $20, with a chance to earn up to $3,800. You'll also get your own referral link and receive two of these stocks for each of your successful referrals (ten referrals max, 20 referral stocks total).
Reading the fine print, the odds of earning the full $1,800 are low. That said, it's not impossible. RWN supporter Ana signed up through me just after I signed up last year, and she won the top prize as her referral bonus (see screenshot of her prize below)!
I highly recommend this opportunity if you can deposit the $100. It's a better return than Webull, which offers a guaranteed $9 from the same $100 deposit. Once you receive your stocks, you can withdraw your deposit. The rewards themselves have a 90-day hold UNLESS you complete ten or more trades after opening your account.

MoneyLion's Referral Rush Starts Tuesday!
https://www.referralworldnews.com/moneylion
Right now, MoneyLion offers its standard $5 signup and referral bonuses. Still, great news: their "Referral Rush" begins Tuesday, March, midnight EDT, and based on previous promotions, they're expected to offer double the bonuses to $10.
If you're looking for great bank promotions between now and then, One Finance's $20 bonus is a great one to take advantage of. You can also check out these Featured Bank Bonuses, which include current bonuses and tips to trigger them.
