Rakuten offering $20 bonus for new members
Rakuten has a new refer-a-friend-bonus as of 2021. If you refer a friend to Rakuten and they spend $20, then both the person referring and the person being referred receive $20.

It’s possible that not all refer-a-friend links show this offer, so you’ll want to double check your account before referring others.
This is a very good deal:
- Rakuten is giving out $40 total for a $20 purchase
- For the person being referred, they’re essentially getting a $20 credit on a $20 purchase
- You can then refer friends and family members, and earn an unlimited number of referral bonuses
- Long term you can potentially get even more value with Rakuten, as rewards can be converted into Amex points
- You can really easily make a purchase, including triggering this bonus with a simple $20 gift card purchase.

Bottom line
Rakuten is my favorite online shopping portal, and at the moment the company is offering a $20 referral bonus to both the person referring and the person being referred.
Since only a $20 purchase is required, that’s like getting $20 worth of stuff more or less for free. Then long term you can even earn Amex Membership Rewards points in place of cash back, which I value significantly more.
If you don’t yet have a Rakuten account, this is the time to sign up. This is an incredible deal.
