How to Score this Sweet, Sweet Free Share: A Step-by-Step Guide (with Emojis for the Visual Learners )
1. Be a Freetrade OG (or become one!): This offer is for existing Freetrade users, so if you're not already part of the cool investing crowd, download the app, sign up, and get verified. Boom, entry granted.
2. Prove You're Not a Robot (and Fill Out That W-8BEN Form): You'll need to pass Freetrade's onboarding checks (think answering questions that only a human with questionable internet history could answer) and fill out a W-8BEN form (it's a US tax thing, don't worry about it too much).
Reminder: Focus on key sentences in each paragraph.
3. Fund Your Account (But Not Like, Your Basement): Throw at least £50 into your Freetrade account. Yes, actual money is involved here. But hey, think of it as an investment in your free-share future (and maybe a celebratory pizza after you snag it).

**4. The Referral Rodeo: Round Up Your Posse ** Once you've met the criteria above, you'll unlock the magical "refer a friend" feature. Here's where the free-share frenzy begins!
Tip: Use the structure of the text to guide you.
- Snag your unique referral link: It's basically a golden ticket to free-share land.
- Spread the word like a town crier on a sugar rush: Share your link with your friends, family, that guy who always asks for stock tips at barbecues (just be sure they're cool with it). The more people who sign up and deposit £50 within 30 days using your link, the more free shares you score!
5. The Big Reveal (and Hopefully Not Disappointment): After your friend deposits their cash, both of your free shares will be chosen at random from a pool of US stocks. Think of it like a delightful stock market grab bag! You won't know what company you snag until the share lands in your account (usually within 7-10 days), but hey, that's part of the fun, right?
There you have it! The not-so-secret way to snag a free share on Freetrade. Now get out there, spread the word, and who knows, you might just end up owning a piece of the next Google (or at the very least, a company that makes a killer peanut butter).
QuickTip: Slow down if the pace feels too fast.
Remember, this is just for entertainment purposes (and hopefully to get you started with investing). Do your own research before you jump into any stocks, free or not. But hey, free share or not, getting started with investing is always a good thing!
