Rakuten Coinbase Offer

There is a new Rakuten Coinbase offer that crypto investors may be interested in (our Rakuten referral). It is kind of like a mini bank bonus if you think about it. There will be some fees and potential investment losses with this offer, so that is something to consider. If you actively invest in crypto anyway then this may make sense for you regardless. If not, you should hopefully be able to pull it out without losing much, maybe even earning a small gain.

*This is not investment advice and we are not financial advisors.

**The links provided in this article are our Rakuten personal referral links and were collected independently by Travel on Point(s). We may receive points if you use them.

Offer Details

Earn $50, or 5,000 Membership Rewards when you invest $100 or more with Coinbase.

  • Exclusions: Cash Back is only available on a new account once a user trades a cumulative amount of $100 within the first six months. Cash Back is only available on the first cumulative $100 traded. Cash Back is only valid for new U.S. customers, one time per customer. Offer not valid in the state of Hawaii.
  • Special Terms: Using coupon codes that are not listed on Rakuten may void Cash Back. To be safe, stick to codes provided by Rakuten.
  • Posting Time: Cash Back will be automatically added to your Rakuten account in a few days.
  • Our Rakuten referral

I should note that with Rakuten you will not receive the points until the next quarterly release, even if they show as posted on your account. I did not see any type of minimum time frame for the investment in the terms, but double check them yourself too.

Maximizing This Offer

It looks like USDC has worked in the past per DoC comments, which is a cash like entity and will be less risky than other crypto options. There have also been reports of issues with the offer tracking when it came around, but Rakuten was fairly easy to work with on the claim per reports.

You may also get a new member Coinbase wheel spin over the next few days that could make you a little bit more money as well.

Pairing Up With A Rakuten Bonus

If you don't already have a Rakuten account then you can use our referral to get a welcome bonus for that too. I am not sure if this offer will trigger the terms where you need to spend $30 to earn the $30 bonus. On the other hand, if you have a Membership Rewards earning card you can set it up to earn points instead too.

If it did trigger the bonus that would be $80, or 8,000 points, back on a $100 trade. If not, you would still need to complete the shopping but could add a $30 win on ToP of this $40-$50ish win.

Rakuten Coinbase Offer: ToP Thoughts

The biggest problem with this offer is probably that it requires you to not have a Coinbase account already. I think most active Crypto traders likely already do. I have had a Coinbase account for many years now, and I have never had any real issues with it. If I could I would jump on this offer and hope to get $50, or 5,000 points, for hopefully a small cost out of pocket. If you want to look at it as a long term investment that you could at a big discount instead, you could do that as well.

Let us know if you decide to give it a try over in the ToP Facebook Group.
