Once you enter the promotional code, if eligible, you'll see the conditions needed to claim the bonus. Please keep in mind that promo codes are only valid for new users who created their account within the last 30 days. If you signed up earlier or have already used another code, you won’t be able to redeem it.

- Be eligible to sign up with Lightyear
- Provide any supporting documentation you might need to complete onboarding.

The reward will be credited to your Personal Account. If your first account wasn’t a Personal Account, you’ll need to open one in order to receive the reward. Remember we're a regulated investment firm, and as such may be required to ask additional questions to be able to offer you our services.
What value of share will I get?
Your value of a share will be randomly generated based on the following probabilities:
- $10 - $20: 80%
- $20 - $50: 15%
- $50- $75: 3%
- $75 - $100: 2%
Due to the randomised nature of generation, the actual distributed awards may differ from the weightings above.
What do I need to know before I invest?
Do you have cash reserves?: It’s generally good practice to have easily accessible cash available to cover your ongoing short term expenses, as well as an emergency fund for any unforeseen sudden expenses (e.g. needing to replace your washing machine), before investing extra money you might have. It may also be sensible to pay off debts with available money, rather than investing it.
Can you accept losses?: All investing contains an element of risk; your investment value can go down as well as up, so you could get back less than you invested, or in some cases, you may lose your entire investment. Generally the more risk you take gives you the opportunity for higher returns, but also increases the potential for greater losses. You should also think about how long you plan to invest for, and therefore whether you have the time to wait for any losses to recover. Don’t invest more than you can afford to lose. See explanations of the types of risk each investment type provided by Lightyear might be exposed to here. This can be complicated, so please let us know if you need help.
