Email received today from Alterna Savings.

Checked out Qtrade website and saw the posted promo.

Dear Client,

Wouldn’t it be nice to get be rewarded for growing your nest egg? Right now, you can get up to $5,000 cash back when you invest in a new online brokerage account. And the more you invest, the more cash back you’ll get as a reward.

We’ve partnered with Qtrade Direct Investing™ to help you get a leg up on your investments. You already know the importance of investing for your future, and the benefits of tax-sheltering your investment income and growth in a registered retirement savings plan (RRSP) or tax-free savings account (TFSA). Make the most of it on this year’s investment – and put some extra cash in your pocket.

To qualify* for this offer, all you need to do is:
• Open a new Qtrade account by March 1, 2022 using the promo code "CASHBACK22"
• Deposit or transfer in a minimum of $5,000 (cash or assets) by March 31, 2022
• Keep the assets in your Qtrade account from April 1 to September 30, 2022

Question 1: Who/what is QTrade? Are they safe?

Question2: Why did QTrade felt the need to bump up the cash reward from the initial $2,000 to $5,000?

Safe enough I guess. Banks and credit unions love signing up the naive. Keep in mind you take all the risk. It's not their money and they make good coin managing your portfolio. If your bank is involved they also get a piece of the pie. I was with these guys for 2 or 3 years. All I made was bank interest. Live and learn.
