Refer a Friend FAQs

The Tide Refer a Friend programme is an exciting opportunity for you to earn cash rewards by recommending Tide to your friends. It’s a way for us to say thank you for bringing more members to the Tide community.

When your friend opens a business bank account with Tide, using your referral code and spends £500 on their Tide card in the first 3 months, we’ll give you both a £50 bonus.

Your £50 bonus will be paid into both you and your friend’s Tide accounts within 8 weeks of your friend completing £500 worth of transactions on their Tide card.

For you and your friend to both earn the £50 bonus, your friend needs to complete £500 worth of transactions with their Tide card (excluding any disputes or recharges) within 3 months of having opened their account. For more details, see the referral programme terms and conditions.

There’s no limit on the number of friends you can refer to Tide, but we reserve the right to withdraw the programme at any time.

We’ll send you a referral code by email or via the app. Simply share your code with your friend. They enter the referral code when they sign up for a Tide business bank account. Once their account is opened, they just need to spend £500 during the first 3 months and we’ll give you both £50 as a referral bonus.
