(Updated 10/5) If you’re looking for an exclusive Sharebuilder promotion code, you’ve come to the right place.
Sharebuilder is the buy-and-hold investor’s dream and we have some promotion codes that will help give you a head start. We have partnered with Sharebuilder to bring you an exclusive $25 promotion code that isn’t available anywhere else.
The exclusive code is: 25WO10
To use the Sharebuilder promotion code:
- Click on the Apply Today! button,
- You’ll be taken to an ING Direct Sharebuilder page, click on the “Get started today” button.
- On the next page, it says Account Type at the top, you’ll see a white box with the words “I’m responding to a promotion,” – check that box,
- The page will reload and then a new box will appear – that’s where you enter in the code.
It sounds complicated but it’s pretty easy, it just takes a few words to explain it.
Do not open multiple accounts. You cannot get multiple bonuses for opening multiple accounts so don’t try to, readers have reported receiving this email:
“It has been noted that you recently opened multiple accounts with identical registration information.
We have restricted from activity all but the first of such identical accounts. ShareBuilder is closing these additional accounts under the provisions of Section 10 of the Account Agreement. Future identical accounts will be likewise restricted.
IMPORTANT: If you have already placed funds in your account, they will be returned to the bank of origin after the normal hold period. If you funded your account with a check, funds will be sent by check to the address of record on the account. If there were securities purchased, those trades will be cancelled.“
Terms & Conditions of the offer:
You must open a new account with ShareBuilder and deposit at least $25 to be eligible for this promotion. ShareBuilder will deposit a $25 bonus approximately 4-6 weeks after your first $25 deposit. The $25 bonus offer is available for Individual, Joint and Custodial accounts only. Offer not valid for IRAs or ESAs. The $25 bonus from ShareBuilder is not available for withdrawal for 90 days after it is awarded to your account. This offer is not valid with any other offers and is non-transferrable. Limit one ShareBuilder account bonus per unique customer or custodial beneficiary. ShareBuilder reserves the right to terminate this offer at any time and to refuse or recover any promotion award if ShareBuilder determines that it was obtained under wrongful or fraudulent circumstances, that inaccurate or incomplete information was provided in opening the account, or that any terms or ShareBuilder’s Account Agreement has been violated.

I noticed that you do not have to invest $50 either, you simply need to transfer $50 to the Sharebuilder account and make a trade… you can choose any amount of investement you want and still qualify for the $50 promotion.
you know er.. I actually signed up on like mid-Nov for (another account) for the $50 bonus (it was still working, at least the page was).
it emailed me and told me the promotional code has been accepted.. so that encouraged me a bit and I made one trade. then I got another email telling me I fulfill the bonus and it’ll be deposit in my account eventually.
I bought $42 worth of WFMI, so far I’ve gained $2.17 from it. lol. I didn’t realize they take the commission from the total amount, thats why it’s $42 (instead of $46)
I duno, dollar cost averaging isnt for me. owning 0.2896 of a share just doesnt seem that exciting. heh. now that I think about it, I should have just put money into some small cost high growth individual stock since the point is to leave it there and forget about it.
but yeah, sharebuilder is quite expensive in the long run.
gift40 worked on feb. 28
The ENTERTAIN50 code work for me and it’s May 6th
I constantly check the promotion codes that I have listed and remove the ones that are invalid… unless Sharebuilder says a code is invalid, they will give you the bonus money.
ENTERTAIN50….. worked for me on share builder and I already have a share builder account ….you have to open another now I have 2 accounts
You many also wish to try promo code: MYPOINTS25
This worked for me in July
You Provide
$25 Deposit required
+1 Stock investment out of the $25 Deposit ($4 Charge / Whatever you use out of the $25)

Not a bad deal if I might say so myself..
I just used HH50LOGIN on 8/22/2006 and it is still working
ENTERTAIN50 still works, 8/29/06
ENTERTAIN50 does not work 8/29/06
Cal – It still works when I tested it.
I got the same error on every code, with my existing account.
“The Promotion Code you entered can be used on existing accounts only. To use this promotion code with an existing account, go to the promotion entry page.”
I reached the promotion page by going to Accounts->Promotions.
Am I missing something?
Perhaps you need to clear the cookies on your browser?
I have been successful with promotional code ENTERTAIN50 for an Individual Account but would like to know if one exists for RoTH or Traditional IRA’s?
I had the same problem that AJ had, I also reached the promotion page by going to Accounts->Promotions. So I deleted my cookies and I still could not get any of the promotions to work. I just want to double check and make sure they all work on exesting account, and to see if anyone knows what I am doing wrong?
Thanks,
Chuck
Are you guys selected a regular individual account? I just did it, for the third time, through the above link using GIFT50 as my code and it told me my code was accepted.
I saw a sign in the window of my campus bookstore for Sharebuilder today. It had a link to a promotion for college students, but it looks like it’d work for anyone. The promo code is CAMPUS50. You get a $50 Barnes & Noble card for making your first trade and you get an additional $5 card (paid out quarterly) for each quarter that you maintain a Standard or Advantage plan (the ones with the monthly fees). Here’s the link:
http://www.sharebuilder.com/campus50
Thanks Jim i figured it out! I did not know that you had to open a new account for each promotion, i didn’t thouroughly read your original posting sorry. I just checked the box that asked if you have an exesiting account and then i did not have to re-enter all of my info, but like you said you have to clear the cookies before each new code. I have a total of 16 links and promotion codes that i found to be working for a total of $510 and a $50 gift card to Barnes and Nobles these 16 codes include 6 of the codes listed above. I will post the additional codes i found on a new posting. Thanks for getting me a started on free money from sharebuilder!
so chuck…you have 16-accounts with sharebuilder.com????
am I getting this right?
you pull down your accounts list and you have 16 there?
Yep, that’s right I have 16 different accounts. I was wondering if anyone knows how I can consolidate all these accounts once my promotions have been fulfilled?
Chuck, unfortunately there’s no way to do it online, you’ll have to call them up and ask them to manually combine all of them.
Bummer, Thanks Jim! Hey i do not know how to get the links posted for the other promotions i found. i cut and paste them but the do not show up as links?
I just did 6 of them last night…
ENTERTAIN50 – $50
HH50LOGIN – $50
GIFT50 – $50
SHAREBUILD50 – $50
CAMPUS50 – $50 BARNES AND NOBLE CARD
SHAREBUILD25 – $25
The only one I didn’t get a confirmation for the code working yet was “GIFT50″…I have received 6 e-mails that accounts were set up and 5 e-mails saying codes have worked and alow 4-6 weeks for your ‘reward’ after the first transaction…
So that $175 [4 working accounts] and a $50 Gift Card [other gift card account]…Lets see if it works…I don’t plan on funding the 6th account that didn’t get a ‘reward’…
I plan on buying the same stock in each account which will hopefully make it easy when I call and try to get these accounts into one…$10 into each of the 5 accounts, buy the stocks on the same Tuesday an basically have $30 in the market and then when the rewards start coming in, I will again buy the same stock and have $46 from each account…
So at the end of this after my $10 addition, I am expecting $189 in all the accounts or $169 of free stock…
Has anyone tried calling them up to combine yet? So I call up sharebuilder in say 5-months and say I would like to combine these 5-accounts into my joint account with my wife I had set up previously?
anyone else have some specifics here?
rook – I haven’t tried it yet but that’s what everyone else says will work.
TT – You may be onto something, I’ve only opened three and I did so a few months from each other (I waited until the first one entirely cleared before the second, waited, etc.) and had no problems, I suspect others did the same?
Damn these people, cutting into my free money.J/K
If it sounds to good to be true than it is to good to be true. They Posted the statement below to my account.
It has been noted that you have opened multiple accounts, with identical registration information. We have restricted from activity all but the first of such identical accounts. Future identical accounts will be likewise restricted.
Well good luck to everyone else! Jim i will email you the links, although i do not know how much good they will do.
Hey Jim,
What do you know about reverse merger arbitrage opportunities and/or how to find them?
Chuck – I know how they work but basically how you find them is to look at SEC filings and there’s a form a company must fill out in order to do a reverse merger, I forget the number though. It was tough going… I know George at fatpitchfinancials.com does this.
Almost all of the codes worked for me today. Thanks alot everyone!! Truly appreciated.
Thanks I used SHAREBUILD50 to open a indiv account today and it worked (seemingly)
I have a joint account that the promo wouldnt append itself to.
I went ahead and set the new account to withdrawl 50 from my joint account. And it seemed to work — after all all the accounts are withdrawn from a wells fargo account — should work.
SHAREBUILDER SUCKS… I OPENED 10 accounts with 10 different PROMOS and all appeared to work just fine… THEN 1 week later all accounts were suspended and it cost me alot of money !!!!
The following is the messge I got from ShareBuilder.com representative for using the GIFT50 promo code:
In order to have this promotion fulfilled you will need to actually mail in the gift certificate.
You can deposit the Gift Certificate into your ShareBuilder Account by signing the back of the Gift Certificate, completing the Account Opening Confirmation Card, and mailing both of them to ShareBuilder. Please be sure to include the Account Opening Confirmation Card as this is how you let us know what account to deposit the Gift Certificate in.
Is this a mistake? Did I do something wrong?
I’ve never used GIFT50 so I have no idea what the requirements of that promotion are but I hadn’t heard of that one though…
SHARE25 worked for me yesterday, giving me a $25 bonus in 4-6 weeks. Also I found another offer at http://www.williamverdult.com/WebX?13@@.3d191247 where you get a lithograph of a decent artist and $30. The code is stocks30art, but apparently can only be used through that site. Do you know if that print, valued at $500, would be taxed? If so, then the deal pretty much stinks unless you really love this guy’s work.
need more codes!!! =)
After seeing Rich’s post, it seems like you can’t have more than one account open, or can you? And Rich, if you’re there, what do you mean the accounts were “suspended”? Do you no longer have access to the money you put in them? Will they refund your money?

SHAREBUILDER SUCKS… I OPENED 10 accounts with 10 different PROMOS and all appeared to work just fine… THEN 1 week later all accounts were suspended and it cost me alot of money !!!!
They said it is against sharebuilder policy to have more than one account open per person.. They were friendly about it and just cancelled the sales of the stock i purchased and returned me my money and I didnt get any bonuses. The people that are getting away with this scam are getting lucky. Simply call sharebuilder and ask if it is ok… they will tell you its not… this is a loophole ONLINE and some people get caught and some dont
When I sign up for Sharebuilder.com two months ago using GIFT50 promo code, I was denied the bonus and decided to call in to see what is going on. The representative told me that I need to submit the actual certificate in order to receive the credit. I also ask the representative about multiple accounts and he said, “you can open as many accounts as you desired.” The bottom line is that you are allow to have multiple accounts (I have three existing), but I am not certain if you will get all the bonus credits posted on this blog. I am able to confirm that I got $55 Costco Bonus and $50 for using HH50LOGIN.
HH50LOGIN was acccepted. Of course I’ll have to wait until 4 weeks after my firs trade to receive it.
I think obhome50 is a new promo code worth $50. I plan to try it today.
There’s a new one.. SHARE50. I used it today.
just an update with my goings on with sharebuilder…
I signed up for 6, but two were shot down..
ENTERTAIN50 – Received, bought IWD
HH50LOGIN – Recieved, bought VTI
GIFT50 – I did not get a Confirmation and my $$$ was sent back and did NOT work..
SHAREBUILD50 – Should recieve bonus in next few days…
CAMPUS50 – My $$$ was sent back on this and did NOT work…
SHAREBUILD25 – Received, bought QQQQ
I have already signed the transfer papers to get all of these smaller accounts into my large sharebuilder account…I plan on buying another ETF fund with the 4th bonus that I already hold in my main account so when I transfer the 4-accounts into one, they will hopefully be added into my other amounts seemlessly and I am not stuck with some random ETF fund…
I plan on doing a few more when all of the accounts go into one and I can start all over…
Also, it looks like the trouble I had was with the gift card and the college one…The others were just straight bonuses that weren’t specific to anyone or anything…
PROMO CODE: GIFT50
I never got an email confirmation accepting the GIFT50 promo code and called to make a general inquiry into that specific promotion.
Gift promos like GIFT50, GIFT40 do not work because as the ShareBuilder rep. explained to me this morning some sort of paperwork/coupon must be sent in with it after the account is set-up.

Jsut received new PROMO CODE: ncgift06ema =$50
I cannot get any of these codes to work. I add a new account, clear my cookies and get weird sayings like “The Promotion Code you entered can be used on existing accounts only. To use this promotion code with an existing account, go to the promotion entry page” etc. Have people used these codes after the implementation of the new Sharebuilder site? Any suggestions? I am going to call Sharebuilder and see if they can’t help me take their “free” money!
Costco Promotion I just stumbled on (Dec 7 ’06):
GIFTSTOCK06
There used to be a Costco $85 sharebuilder promotion. I benefited from that last year (or earlier this year?). Anyway, someone used it in october and it still worked (amazing):

I’ve been having the same trouble as you Mike. Does anyone have a clue what this is about?
