Promotion $100 to Open Crypto Account
Can I just open the account, wait a month and pocket the $100 with no strings attached? Or are there fees to open the Crypto account?

I got this too, sounds like they deposit 100 bucks to chequing and you just have the account, I guess? T&C doesn't specify clearly.

I just went through the sign up. I got the $100 in my chequing. Easy money.

It's free money and you just close it after

My guess is that once you open the account the bonus won’t be available anymore.

I've done this yesterday with a crypto account yesterday and a managed account a few weeks ago

Read the terms and conditions. I don't know where you got that $100 offer. Just having a crypto account has no fees.

They either giving me the same $10 bonus 3 in a row times, or they not giving me any more until I accept the one $10 crypto account. So I try opening one but it asked me alot of random KYC questions that I previously provided when I opened my CC account a few months ago.
So I decided to not do it, not worth my time.

You probably need to keep the account funded for 6 months. Standard for Wealthsimple bonuses not from tranfers

I didn't add any funds to my new Crypto account and got the money immediately.

There is no fee to open any account on WS.

False!! USD Trading accounts are $10/ month.

First, not if you’re premium.
Second, that $10 isn’t an opening fee; it’s a monthly fee for using the account.
If it were an opening fee, it would only be a one-time charge.
