Neo Sign-Up Link or Code: Which One Should You Use?

There are two ways to get Neo's sign-up bonus: go through a link, or enter a code when Neo asks for one. Either works, and you don't need both. The only way to run into trouble is to start sign-up without either and then wonder how to add it afterwards.

The current Neo referral code is on our Neo page if you need to copy it.

The two routes

Link Code
How it works Start sign-up from the link Type the code when sign-up asks
Extra step None Enter the code
Best for Signing up in one go Anyone who started sign-up without a link

Using the link

Start from the Neo sign-up link and follow the prompts. You don't have to hunt for a code field. This is the simplest option if you're about to sign up right now.

Using the code

If Neo's sign-up asks for a referral code, enter E6B8C9Y7. Copy and paste it so there are no typos. The code is eight characters: letters and numbers, all capitals.

Which should you pick?

  • Signing up now, on this device: use the link
  • Already downloaded the Neo app and started sign-up without the link: keep the code handy and enter it if sign-up asks for one

Before you start

A few minutes of prep saves most of the headaches:

  • Have your government ID and Social Insurance Number ready
  • Decide which product you want first. The $25 is tied to a credit card approval, and the $10 to a chequing account with a $50 deposit
  • Have $50 available if you want the chequing bonus

Common mix-ups

  • Starting sign-up through an ad or search result, then having no link or code to use
  • Skipping the code field because it looked optional
  • Mistyping the code, so double-check each character
  • Opening the account but never making the $50 deposit

What to do if the code won't go in

  1. Re-copy it from our Neo page and paste it, rather than typing it
  2. Check each character against the code on our home page
  3. If it still won't take, start over from the sign-up link instead

What happens after you sign up

Signing up is only the first step. Each bonus has its own trigger, so see our welcome bonus guide for exactly what to do and in what order. If you're thinking about the secured card to build credit, our Secured Neo Mastercard review covers it.

Quick FAQ

Do I need both the link and the code? No. Use the link, or enter the code when sign-up asks for it.

Does it matter which Neo product I start with? The $25 is tied to a credit card approval and the $10 to a chequing account with a $50 deposit. See our welcome bonus guide for how each works.

Does the secured card qualify? Yes. The Secured Neo Mastercard is a Neo credit card, so the $25 applies.
