How we rank brokerage bonuses: by the dollars you keep, which is the bonus the broker pays for your deposit. The grey annualized figure is shown for reference only. Market gains or losses are not included, because they're yours either way. Stock bonuses are counted at the dollar value the broker states. Matches paid in installments are counted over the full payout period. Ties go to the shorter time your money must stay.
Investing involves risk, including loss of principal. Brokerage accounts are not FDIC insured. Bonuses only require that your money stays in the account; you can usually hold it as cash or a money-market fund. Bonuses are generally taxable. No crypto offers are listed.
