Free €15 for opening a Bitwala bank account - no spend required
Bitwala, a German bank, are currently offering €15 to anyone who opens an account with them. Although the bank is a German one it is open to anyone in Europe. I have found it is a useful bank for money transfers as it has a German IBAN.
You do not need to pay anything into the account to get the €15 but you do need to set up a Bitcoin wallet on the app. You do not need to put anything into it though and it is super easy to do. Just write down 12 words it gives you.
They say the €15 gets credited to your Bitwala account in 15 days. I got mine in 7 days.
To get the free euros you need to do the following:
Sign up with my referral link app.bitwala.com/r/pbbPVklF2
My referral code is: pbbPVklF2
Non referral link for those interested is: bitwala.com (this doesn't give you free euros)
You will then need to complete registration and identity verification. This includes a short video call via their app. You'll need your passport with you. You may need a proof of address like a bank statement or drivers licence for the call, but these can also be added this later via their app.
You then need to create a Bitcoin wallet in the app account. This is done after the call.
€15 will be credited to your account within 15 business days. You can withdraw the bonus right after you receive it. I withdrew mine to a Starling account and then converted back to £GBP. This would work for any bank that has a Euro account such as Revolut, Monese, or similar.
It's important to note that you must go through all these steps, including the wallet creation. You don't need to deposit any money with them, but to get the bonus you need to follow all the steps.
The referrer will also get €15.
A referral link can be found in the app once you have signed up. Feel free to share your referral link in a comment below so we can share the free euros
