What is MoneyLion?
MoneyLion is a financial technology company that offers FDIC-insured digital banking products. One of their products, MoneyRoar, is a checking account that features:
- Early Paycheck = get your paycheck up to 2 days early
- Zero Hidden Fees = no surprises
- Debit Card Rewards = earn rewards on your daily spending
The debit card reward is interesting because you can earn cash back when you spend $10 or more just by shaking your phone with Shake ‘N’ Bank. You can earn up to 5x the value of your purchase every day up, up to $500.

The Bottom Line
A $55 bonus is lukewarm considering other apps like MoneyLion are providing better sign-up bonuses (like Chime, Juno, and Albert). The MoneyRoar account also has a $1 per month service fee for accounts with balances less than $5,000.
Although the bonus is on the smaller side, I still did it because I feel part of my job is to sign up for everything 🙂 A TMN reader sent me this promo and I signed up during a commercial break – making money during “downtime”!
I’ll try this app out for a few months and update this post on my thoughts. They were a major sponsor at a personal finance conference (FinCon 2022) I attended and seem to be really eager in making this a great fintech app so we’ll see.
If you’re into sign-up bonuses, we have dedicated pages for bank offers, stock offers, and crypto offers.
Just signed up using $TheMoneyNinja got the instant $5. They have a $1 monthly fee. Let’s see what happens
You’re like me dude – we do everything! 🙂
I signed up last week and got $5 the morning after I signed up. Made a direct deposit earlier today and the $50 bonus has already been sent too.
Oh yes 😁, thanks for your hard work. And putting money in my pocket. I appreciate it
