As introduced on my YouTube video ‘Hawaii, where you should buy Bitcoin?’, I’m sharing the services I’ve personally used.
Each one includes a referral link, so please feel free to take advantage of them!
River
River is a company that passed the requirements of a pilot program initiated by the State of Hawaii, so I believe it’s a safe option to use. With low fees, I can confidently recommend it.
When you register and purchase a total of over $100 in cryptocurrency, you’ll receive $5 worth of Bitcoin.
For purchases totaling over $1,000, you’ll receive $15 worth of Bitcoin.
And if your total exceeds $10,000, you’ll get $80 worth of Bitcoin.
Gemini
Gemini is a company that met the requirements of a pilot program initiated by the State of Hawaii, so I believe it’s a trustworthy platform to use.
Its fees are relatively low, which makes it a recommended option.
They also offer a credit card that gives 2% cashback in cryptocurrency.
As of June 2025, if you purchase over $100 in cryptocurrency within 30 days of registering, you’ll receive $75.
This is part of a special promotion—normally the reward is $10.
Please note that there’s no specified end date for this campaign.
These promotions occur from time to time, and the referral reward may vary depending on when you sign up. Thank you for your understanding.
Coinbase
Coinbase is a well-known major platform.
It’s currently available for purchasing in all 50 states. I
’ve continued using it since moving to Georgia.
Unfortunately, the spread and trading fees are not publicly disclosed in specific numbers.
If you register through this link and purchase more than $20 in cryptocurrency, you’ll receive a $30 referral bonus.
Coinbase also offers a credit card that gives 4% cashback in cryptocurrency.
SoFi
SoFi is an online bank, but you can also buy stocks and cryptocurrencies through it.
It’s one of my two main banks.
SoFiIf you sign up through this link and deposit more than $25, then purchase either stocks or cryptocurrency, you’ll receive $25 worth of stock.
Others
didn’t introduce these on YouTube, but there are other platforms where you can buy cryptocurrency and earn referral bonuses, so I’ll share them below。
Public
Public is a stock trading platform that’s advertised as being used by celebrities.
In addition to stocks, it also supports cryptocurrency trading.
PublicIf you sign up through this link and deposit over $1,000, you’ll receive $20.
Robinhood
Robinhood is a well-known stock trading platform, but you can also purchase cryptocurrency through it.
RobinhoodWhen you register through this link and link your bank account, you’ll receive stocks worth anywhere from $5 to $200.
The amount is determined by a randomized drawing, but there’s a wide selection of stocks, so you can receive one you like.
Cash App
Cash App is a mobile-based money transfer system similar to Venmo, but it also allows you to buy cryptocurrencies and stocks.
If you register through this link and send $5 or more to someone, you’ll receive $5.
With the referral program, if you refer someone, both of you will receive $5.
That’s all for now.
Wishing you all an even better life ahead!
