Sign up at Personal Capital (it's a free, better alternative to Mint) using the referral link below, and we'll both receive a $10 Amazon gift card:

Enjoy the $10 :)

Just signed up. I didn't receive any confirmation after linking my accounts that I would receive the bonus, however...

Thanks!  I appreciate it.

I'm hoping it just takes some time then and that we'll both receive a confirmation email soon.

I originally signed up during a similar promotion and got confirmation quickly after linking one account.  Maybe check your junk/spam email folder.

I never received an email for the Amazon gift card. Does anyone know why?

So far, this site seems okay.  They can't link a couple of my credit cards, but that's a problem with Mint with some cards too.  I like that they break down index fund investments by category and display that to you in a chart, so you know what portions are domestic stocks, foreign stocks, bonds, cash, etc.  Mint doesn't do that.

I never got my gift card either. I read on some other site that the referral promotion ended on Jan 22.

You don't get the gift card until you link at least one account.

I hope that helps.

I just got my gift card about 24 hours after signing up and linking accounts.  Honestly, I like Personal Capital better than Mint.  It is compatible with a lot more accounts and it offers more detailed charts and graphs.  I still haven't received my own referral link, though.

Classify those expenses as a transfer and they will not show up against your spending.

I only see 3 links in this thread, including mine. Others are getting through via mine.  I hope the 2 nd poster's link is working too. 
If anyone else has a referral link to share, load them up!  Maybe Jdm can add their non-mobile link.

Here's my Personal Capital referral link: [removed]

We'll both get $10 Amazon gift cards once you create an Personal Capital account AND link a financial account.  I signed up using someone else's referral link a couple of months ago, and I've enjoyed the site's presentation over Mint's.

I don't think it's cool to register here solely to post a referral link.

I just saw this thread. I signed up a couple months back. PC emailed me my referral link. A friend used it and linked an account. And then we both got email notifications about the gift cards. So it's working.

If you want in, I'd love to have you! : )

Anyone know how you get the referral code to share with other people?  I know a few people I could sign up for this if I could get a referral code.

I am not sure, I signed up via alert from Mad Fientist, late last year. I've ignored their calls for my free advice session. But I got the referral link at the top, which I posted here within a day or two.  I could check the dates, my guess is it was less than or about 2 months after joining that i got my referral link via email.  You coul contact them and ask, but you might get more contacts from them to advise you...

I think they all came around the same time, but I'm not certain how they chose who got the codes.  I got mine in an email from Personal Capital on Jan 22 with the subject "Get $10 For Each Friend You Refer"

i signed up under ascZend, a few days ago. It took several days to get my amazon gc. and then it took another couple days for them to respond and tell me how to get my own referral code.

Mine is https://bnc.lt/l/3KqCQdk-7W
It is for the app. You download the app and link an account and we both get a gc for 10$
Once you have the app you can also access your account online.

ETA: once you link your accounts, to get your referral code, go into the app you find the Refer A Friend link in the menu beneath Investment Checkup

Thanks in advance to anyone who uses my link :) I appreciate it very much.

Signed up on thefirstman's link. Will post when i receive the GC.

2 weeks later, still no gift card. I have received several newsletter style emails from them since, so it doesn't look like it will be coming.

I know it is only $10, but have you tried contacting them? Have you checked your spam/junk folder in email?

they do have a help form. there are many complaints about not getting the gc. some responses say there is a backlog. I did get mine after several days but I also did send in the help form. Got a response AFTER I got the gc.

I assumed the GC was automated, np but maybe this is  a (semi) manual process (at least behind the scenes. I hope everyone gets their card, sooner rather than later.
Bad first impression to give people...

 

Wow, a phone plan for fifteen bucks!
