What you get
Coinbase referral campaigns have advertised roughly $20 of Bitcoin for new users who register via invite, pass identity verification, and complete a qualifying crypto buy or sell on standard Coinbase (not Advanced Trade or Prime). Minimum trade sizes and deadlines vary; public terms have cited about $100 USD equivalent within 90 to 180 days. Total bonus pools can reach higher headline caps during promotions. Referrers receive a bonus after the friend trade settles.
Referrer side: Bitcoin bonus after the friend qualifying trade
Eligibility and gotchas
- Trades on Coinbase Advanced or Coinbase Prime do not count toward referral eligibility.
- Transfers from external wallets without a fiat buy or sell do not qualify.
- Bonus amounts and deadlines change between Coinbase campaigns.
Double-check expiry, eligibility and exclusions on the provider's site before you sign up.
