Crypto.com signup - free US$25 referral + SGD100 CRO promo (till 22 Sep 2021)


Exclusive for SG users from 6 Sep till 22 Sep 2021, crypto.com is giving the first 100,000 new users promo bonus of SG100. You can read more here: https://blog.crypto.com/mid-autumn-festival-new-user-promo/

Given their current attractive offer, I decided to sign up for an account using a referral link to maximise the rewards received (both referral reward of US$25 and SGD$100 Mid-Autumn promo), since sign-up bonus can only be taken once. 

PS: as with all crypto-related investments, risks applies. Pls DYODD!

If you're all ready to sign up, here's a quick guide.

Registration guide

1. Click on my referral link and you'd be brought to a page for sign-up. Enter the referral code below during sign-up. They will bring you to a page to download the app.

Note: by using my referral link, you will receive US$25 CRO coin. I will receive US$25 in CRO once you reserved a metal crypto.com visa card. Read more in S/N 2.

2. Upon logging in the app, if the referral code is not indicated, enter it again. 

  • To receive sign-up bonus of US$25, pls note that you will need to stake SGD$500 CRO coins
  • For more details, pls refer to the referral program here
  • As mentioned in blue font above, I am buying SGD$500 CRO since there's only one sign-up bonus in a lifetime 😂
  • Plus, staking SGD$500 worth of CRO coins gets me the Ruby Steel Visa card that'll give me 2% CRO cashback. There's also 12% cashback on groceries and even transport (more here).

3. Key in your details (take note to enter your full legal name).

4. Next, you'd be brought to a page informing you to standby your ID or passport.

5. Once you are done uploading your ID/passport and selfie, you will receive this prompt. I was expecting verification in 2-3 business day as they indicated....but I received a verification email within 10 minutes.
6. After seeing the verification success email, this was what greeted me in the app!
Proof of locked US$25 referral bonus

7. Interestingly, despite not having topped up anything yet, it showed me the US$25 referral bonus. This showed that my referral code was applied successfully! Note that to unlock this referral bonus, you will need to stake SGD$500 CRO coins. An email will inform you how much CRO coins is equivalent to this. 

SGD100 sign-up bonus

8. If you wish to only receive the SGD100 sign-up bonus, you just need to trade SGD100 worth of CRO! For my case, as mentioned above, by topping up SGD$500, I am unlocking both referral bonus of US$25 and SGD100. Plus, my intent is to receive the Ruby Steel Visa card for it's 2% cashback.

You can still get to earn the US$25 referral bonus once you top up to SGD500 worth of CRO so you can do this progressively/DCA in! 

How to purchase CRO coins 
You can also refer to their official guide here.

9. In order to purchase SGD$500 worth of CRO coins, click on Crypto.com coin and click "Buy CRO".

10. You can either purchase the CRO coins via Xfers or Credit Card. For my case, given that they have 3.5% fee waiver for the next 30 days, I am using credit card for the transaction. Enter your credit card details:

11. Once your details are entered, you can now purchase your coins! 

12. Remember the last step, to get the SGD100 bonus, you will need to fill up the form here!


Experience thus far
Sign-up was quick and seamless. UX of app is user-friendly. Topping up and payment was easy as well.

Looking forward to my bonus and application of my card! Stay tuned for the next update!

🤞On track to hitting $950k networth by end 2024🤞

Another blink, another year ending soon. How have you guys been? I wonder who else is still monitoring my blog despite my lack of updates. Again, so much has happened, but not much have changed. I travelled well, continued with a 3rd round of IVF egg retrieval (result was extremely poor), and went through uncertainty at work due to restructuring but was thankfully able to keep my job. I still haven't fulfil my dream of being a mother. Though honestly, it now feels more like a checkbox to be unchecked than the actual fulfilment of wanting to nurture and grow a child. I think the weariness is getting too much. I will embark on my final transfer within these few months. This would be my 7th transfer. If it fails, I'm likely going to stop further treatments. I have already done the best at my "peak".  I am telling myself that my life is still amazing despite these hiccups. Anyway, onto my financial goals. Back on 31 Dec 2024, I posted my goal to achieve $950k networth by ...

Cashing partial BTC out at 50%+ profit

My first foray into crypto was during the hype. Back in Feb 2021 During Feb 2021 to Jun 2022, I added in bit by bit - DCA as what they say. BTC, ETH, MATIC, SOL and even the horror LUNA. Thereafter, as crypto crashed, I stopped, praying one day it will rise back. And today, as I found that BTC is now at ATH, I decided to cash out 1/4 of my BTC for some profits. It's still a far cry from the amount I've lost, but I'm glad I could recoup some losses. Just to detail for my future reference, I transferred my BTC from ledger to coinbase. And sold my BTC on coinbase to SGD, incurring an atrocious fee of $130 and GST of $12. Gone are the days of cheap transaction fees.  Please let me know if there are wiser/cost effective options. In total, what I took back was a profit of 50%.  May BTC rise up more so I can cash out at 100% profit next. -dated 9 Mar 2024-

Extremely bad start with UOB One

With the influx of posts on social media re UOB One (psst on grabpay) and the receipt of my house keys, I decided it was the time to sign up for a UOB One account plus credit card. It was gonna be the best tool for household joint expenses and joint savings. However, I've faced multiple hiccups that made me VERY frustrated....WHY ME?! 1. Delayed approving process led to losing out of sign up bonus First, I signed up for the UOB One card and Account in early Oct through Singsaver's promotion. The promotion said that I'd get to enjoy cash incentive for registration + UOB's promotion of $80 cash credit with min $1k spent within 30 days of card approval. Mind you, t hese terms were stated to end on 31 Oct , extracted below: S$80 Cash Credit for  UOB  One Account:  Limited to the first 500 new to  UOB  Deposits customers who either (i) deposit and maintain $5,000 or (ii) credit their salary, into their new  UOB  account for 6 consecutive months. ...
