OptionsXpress $100 Bonus Offer Alive Again

The $100 bonus offer from OptionsXpress is back!

To get the bonus, $500 must be deposited into the account by March 31, 2008. I opened an account when the offer was around before the new year. Now I am just waiting for the free money

Meanwhile, TradeKing is also giving $100 bonus for new accounts funded with at least $2,500. The bonus will be credited after the first trade.

Relatively speaking, the $100 from OptionsXpress is easier to get: smaller deposit requirement and no trade needed. That said, TradeKing’s $4.95 per trade commission is much lower than what OptionsXpress charges.

Another update. The free book offer from Zecco for any new account opened through their referral program is changed to China Shakes The World, by James Kynge, valued at $10.17 at Amazon.com. If you need a referral (as well as referrals for other accounts), send me an email and you can get a $20 Amazon.com gift card as well.

Update: This offer has expired. However, you can still receive a $100 bonus when opening an OptionsXpress account. Find out how to get the bonus at Referral page. You may also want to check out other bonuses that are available.

Update 2: optionsXpress is running a new promotion with $100 bonus until December 31, 2009. See post for details.
