PPM Referral Disclosure
This section contains a personal SoFi referral link. If you open or fund an eligible account through the link, Power Pulse Magazine may receive a referral reward. Depending on the active promotion, you may also qualify for a bonus or reward.
Using the referral link does not increase the cost of opening an account. Referral offers, reward amounts, funding requirements, deadlines, product availability, and eligibility rules are determined exclusively by SoFi and may change or end without notice.

How SoFi Referral Offers Work
To receive a referral reward, the new member must generally:
1. Open the referral link before beginning the application.
2. Select an eligible SoFi product.
3. Complete the application using the same referral session or enrollment process.
4. Open and fund the qualifying account within the stated promotional period.
5. Keep the account open and in good standing until the reward is issued.
Opening an account without first using the correct referral link may make the applicant ineligible for the referral offer.
SoFi Checking and Savings Referrals
For an eligible SoFi Checking and Savings referral, the referred person generally must:
- Be eligible for the applicable promotion.
- Open a new SoFi Checking and Savings account through the unique referral link.
- Complete any required qualifying deposit within the promotional deadline.
- Use an accepted funding method.
SoFi’s current referral materials state that some checking and savings offers require deposits totaling at least $50 to settle within 21 calendar days after the referral link is clicked. Certain peer-to-peer transfers may not count as qualifying deposits. Requirements can vary by offer, so readers should review the terms attached to the referral link before opening an account.
SoFi Invest Referrals
SoFi also offers referral promotions for eligible investment accounts. Requirements may include:
- Opening a new eligible SoFi Invest account through the referral link.
- Enrolling in the specific promotion.
- Funding the account with the required amount.
- Maintaining an eligible account in good standing.
As of July 20, 2026, SoFi is advertising an increased referral reward for certain eligible Invest referrers through September 30, 2026. This is a limited-time promotion, and the reward depends on the referrer and referred member satisfying the official eligibility requirements.
Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. A promotional reward should not be the sole reason for opening an investment account or purchasing an investment.

SoFi Loan Referrals

- Begin the application through the unique referral link.
- Meet SoFi’s underwriting and credit requirements.
- Receive approval for an eligible loan.
- Complete and fund the loan within the stated referral period.
Using a referral link does not guarantee loan approval, a particular interest rate, or favorable loan terms. Rates and approval decisions depend on factors established by SoFi and its lending partners.
