Referrers: Any active Carry customer, regardless of membership tier
New customers (referees): Individuals who have never previously had a Carry Membership or user account on Carry's platform (including under The Vibes Company Inc. or any predecessor branding) and who purchase a paid annual Basic or Pro Carry Membership. A previous Carry user who registers with a new email address does not qualify.

Are there tax implications?
Taxes related to Program Bonuses, if any, are solely your responsibility.

Consult with your own tax advisor regarding the appropriate tax treatment of Program Bonus payments.
Additional Information
Does a Carry membership require opening an Investment Account?
No. A Carry Membership is a subscription to Carry's financial planning and technology platform, available in both free and paid tiers. It does not require opening an investment account with Carry Advisors LLC (advisory) or a brokerage account with Global Carry LLC (brokerage). The referral bonus is earned when the referred person purchases and maintains a paid Carry Membership, not when they open or fund any investment account.
Who operates this program?
This program is jointly offered by The Vibes Company Inc. and its affiliates, Carry Advisors LLC and Global Carry LLC (collectively, "Carry").
What happens if I violate program terms?
Carry reserves the right to terminate your participation and may withhold unpaid Program Bonuses, seek reimbursement of previously paid Program Bonuses from your designated bank account, or offset against future Program Bonus payments.
Do referrers need to meet any regulatory requirements?
Yes. By participating, you represent and warrant that neither you nor any affiliate have been subject to any "Disqualifying Event" or "Disqualifying Commission Action" as defined under the SEC Marketing Rule ยง275.206(4)-1 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. This is required because referrals to Carry may constitute endorsements of an SEC-registered investment adviser under federal securities law. You must notify Carry at legal@carry.com within 5 business days if such an event occurs.
