- Create their first investment strategy
- Make an initial investment of at least £500

5. Bonus Payment Terms
5.1 The £30 bonus will be paid to both the Referrer and Referee after 3 months from the Referee's first qualifying investment, provided both accounts remain active.

5.5 If either the Referrer's or Referee's account is closed or becomes inactive before the 3-month period, neither party will receive their bonus.
