The Moomoo Anthropic stock referral reward, explained
The headline of Moomoo’s November 2026 campaign is a $100 stock reward in Anthropic. It is real, but it is narrower than the marketing around it suggests. Here is exactly what the terms say.
Who receives it
The referrer: the existing Moomoo user whose code was used. The new user’s Anthropic stock comes from a different program, Moomoo’s welcome bonus, which pays $30 to $1,000 depending on how much they deposit and hold.
What has to happen
The new user’s first net deposit has to be $2,000 or more, and their average assets have to stay at $2,000 or more for 60 days. Each referral that meets both conditions earns the referrer $100 in stock, with no cap.
When the shares arrive
Moomoo delivers the shares within 5 trading days after the 60-day period ends. They arrive as fractional shares through a stock coupon.
Once they have settled they can be held or sold, and sale proceeds can be withdrawn or reinvested. They cannot be transferred out of Moomoo.
Not IPO shares
Moomoo states that shares awarded under this promotion are bought on the open market after trading begins, at a market price that may differ significantly from the IPO offering price.
Moomoo also says IPOs can be risky and speculative investments and may not be appropriate for every investor.
If Anthropic has not gone public
The terms say that if Anthropic does not go public by November 30, 2026, Moomoo will keep the existing terms and give an equivalent reward in NVDA stock instead.
Taxes
Stock rewards may be reported as other income on a Form 1099-MISC. Ask a tax advisor about your own situation.
