Learn how to earn a <a href="http://www.maximizingmoney.com/college-savings/babymint-college-savings-program-5-sign-up-bonus-and-5-referral-bonuses/">$5 BabyMint New Member Bonus</a> through the BabyMint referral program.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The free BabyMint college savings program offers a $5 sign-up bonus to new members and $5 referral bonuses to current members through the BabyMint referral program.</p>
<p>BabyMint is a free shopping rewards program that is similar to <a href="http://www.maximizingmoney.com/college-savings/upromise-college-savings-program-10-sign-up-bonus/">Upromise</a>, allowing you to earn cash rebates for your purchases from select merchants and service providers.</p>
<p>You may choose to have your rebates sent to you via check, deposited directly into your <a href="http://www.maximizingmoney.com/college-savings/529-college-savings-programs-with-matching-contributions-for-free-cash-for-college/">College Savings Account</a>, or used as a payment toward your student loans.</p>
<p>BabyMint is partnered with hundreds of retailers and service providers that offer rebates on your purchases, including in-store purchases, online purchases, gift certificate purchases, and more.</p>
<p>Take advantage of the <a href="https://www.babymint.com/info/NFO_Referrals.aspx"target="_blank">BabyMint Referral Program</a> to earn $5 sign-up bonuses for new members and $5 referral bonuses for current BabyMint members.</p>
<p><strong>BabyMint $5 New Member Sign-Up Bonus</strong></p>
<p>You can earn a $5 bonus when you sign up for a free BabyMint account through a current member&#8217;s referral email.</p>
<p>You will instantly receive $5 BabyMint Bucks when you join BabyMint through a referral.</p>
<p><strong>If you would like to receive a referral email</strong>, please feel free to email MaximizingMoney@gmail.com to request a BabyMint referral, so that you can earn a $5 sign-up bonus when you join.</p>
<p>Please provide us with your full name and the email address that you will use to open your account, so that we can complete the online form to send you a referral.</p>
<p>You must join BabyMint within 1 month of being referred in order to qualify.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s important to note that there is a $25 payment threshold that you must meet before receiving your first check from BabyMint, so even though you will get a $5 sign-up bonus, you must earn $20 more in shopping rebates or referral bonuses before you can receive your first check.</p>
<p><strong>BabyMint Referral Program $5 Bonuses</strong></p>
<p>Current BabyMint members can earn $5 BabyMint Bucks for each new member that you refer to BabyMint.</p>
<p>Your referrals must earn at least $25 in their BabyMint account before you will receive the $5 BabyMint Bucks referral bonus in your account.</p>
<p>You may not refer members of the same household or immediate family.</p>
<p>Please feel free to post your contact information in the comments section below this article in order to exchange BabyMint referrals with other members.</p>
