FAQ
Is the Wise offer available in the UK?+
Yes — Wise operates in the UK and its refer-a-friend or welcome offer is open to eligible UK residents. Always confirm the current live terms on Wise's own website before joining.
How do I know the offer is legitimate?+
We only list companies that are registered UK businesses (or that operate legally in the UK) with a public refer-a-friend, cashback or welcome scheme. We manually re-check the offer terms — see the ‘Last checked’ date on this page.
Will I get taxed on the reward?+
Most sign-up bonuses and referral rewards below the £1,000 trading allowance don't trigger tax, but income from side hustles and passive earnings above that threshold must be declared via HMRC self-assessment.
Can I stack this with cashback sites?+
Sometimes. Some brands exclude referral customers from cashback and vice-versa. Read the terms of the cashback site (e.g. TopCashback / Quidco) and the provider before claiming both.
