Public Referral Program
Earn Free Stock when you Invite your Friends to Public
How does the Referral Program work?
If you have a brokerage account with Open to the Public Investing (โPublic Investingโ), you can earn free slices of stock by referring friends to Public. Any friend you refer gets a free slice too.
First, you need to share your referral code with a friend who doesnโt already have a Public Investing account. If your friend uses your referral code when prompted during the account opening process, is approved for a brokerage account and makes a deposit, then Public Investing will deposit a slice of stock worth anywhere from $3 up to $300 into your account. Your friend will also receive a free slice of stock.
Once you have claimed your free slice of stock, the cash value of the free slice may not be withdrawn for 90 days.
How do I know if I am eligible to participate?
To be eligible to participate, you must have an approved Public Investing brokerage account and successfully funded at least one deposit into that account. For more eligibility requirements, see the โTerms and Conditionsโ below.
How can I send my referral code to friends?
Inviting friends to Public is easy. Grab your referral link from the app, send it to your friends, and earn free stock slices.
How to find your invite link:
Select the Free Stock button on the top right of the home screen.

Approximately 90% of participants will receive a free slice of stock with a value of $3, approximately 9.7% of participants will receive a free slice of stock with a value of $5, and approximately 0.3% of participants will receive a free slice of stock with a value of $300.

Terms and Conditions
To earn a slice of free stock through the Public Referral Program, you must qualify as either a Referrer or Referee. A โReferrerโ is an existing Public Investing customer who shares their unique referral code with a friend. A โRefereeโ is the recipient of the Referrerโs code. Each of the Referrer and Referee can earn a slice of free stock if the Referee (i) enters the Referrerโs code when prompted during the brokerage account opening process, (ii) is approved for a brokerage account, and (iii) funds a successful deposit.
If you qualify as a Referrer and Referee, you can claim a slice of a stock or ETF from a selection of nine available stocks or ETFs specifically designated by Public Investing for this program. The stocks and ETFs chosen for the Referral Program are among the top 50 most popular stocks on the app and have a large market capitalization of $10 billion or more. Public Investing reserves the right to change the stocks and ETFs offered from time to time in its sole discretion without notice.
The value of the slice of stock ranges from $3 to $300. The exact value of your slice may change from time to time based on market movements. Referrers and Referees have approximately a 90% chance of receiving a free slice of stock with a value of $3, approximately a 9.7% chance of receiving a free slice of stock with a value of $5, and approximately a 0.3% chance of receiving a free slice of stock with a value of $300.
The app will alert you as soon as you are cleared to claim your free slice of stock. Tap on the notification and choose from one of the nine stocks or ETFs available.
Public Investing will use best efforts to credit your brokerage account with a free slice of stock within 5 business days of qualifying for the Referral Program.
You have 60 days to claim your free slice of stock. Your free slice offer will expire after 60 days. Expired offers cannot be revived.
The cash value of the free slice of stock received through the Referral Program may not be withdrawn for 90 days after it is claimed.
Any account that incurs an ACH reversal fee or debit card chargeback will be disqualified from the Referral Program and may be disqualified from any other promotional offers.
You may earn up to $500 (USD) of free stock through promotions and offers on the Public app. Once you have received $500 (USD) of free stock, you may no longer be eligible to participate in any reward programs, though, your referral link will remain valid.
A customer may enroll in a maximum of one promotion as a new signup and this offer cannot be combined with other offers. If Public determines that a customer has abused the signup or promotion process to manipulate the number of free stocks generated, then Public may have such customerโs account terminated and any free stock revoked.
You may not publicly advertise the purchase or sale of any free stocks. Any accounts found to be in violation of this condition will be terminated and any referrals voided in Publicโs sole discretion.
