Bank switch bonuses, cashback and apps that genuinely pay — every offer verified against the provider's own terms before it's listed, and re-checked every month. No expired deals, no buried catches.

Switch via CASS with 2+ direct debits, pay in £2,000 and spend £500 on the card within 60 days.

Free UK business account. Referred by an existing member? You both get £100 once the new business spends £500 on its card.
Every offer's complete T&Cs, small print first — pay-in amounts, deadlines, exclusions, the lot.
Checked against the provider's own website — not recycled from someone else's list.
Every listing shows the date we last checked it, so you know exactly how fresh it is.
Full re-check every month. When an offer dies, it comes off the list — no zombie deals.
Most "free money" lists online are written to earn commission first and help you second. Expired offers stay up for clicks, requirements get buried below the fold, and everything is "amazing" because amazing gets shared.
We started HonestQuid to be the opposite: a short, current, verified list where the catch — if there is one — is in the headline, not the small print. If an offer isn't worth your time, we either say so or we don't list it.

CASS, the usual requirements, and the mistakes that cost people their bonus.
Bonuses, rates and payout speed compared — and why the answer is usually both.
What YouGov and AttaPoll really pay per hour — and when they're worth your time.
Yes — every offer here is a public promotion run by the provider themselves (banks, cashback sites, energy suppliers). They pay bonuses because winning a long-term customer is worth far more to them than the £50–£220 they hand you. We just read the terms carefully and list what's real, with the requirements up front.
Some links are referral or affiliate links that pay us a commission when you sign up. It never costs you anything, it never reduces your bonus, and plenty of what we list (including most bank switch offers) pays us nothing at all. The full explanation is on our how we earn page.
Two reasons. Promoting credit products for commission is a regulated activity in the UK, and sites doing it need FCA authorisation — we'd rather stay in the simple, unregulated lane. And honestly: bonuses and cashback are free money; credit is a product that can cost you money. We only list the first kind.
Every listing carries the date we last verified it, and the whole list gets a full re-check every month. When an offer is withdrawn, it comes off the page — if a bank isn't listed, that usually means it isn't paying right now.
Opening a current account usually involves a credit check, and a small number of banks run a "hard" check that leaves a footprint on your file. It's minor for most people, but if you've got a mortgage application coming up, hold off until it's done. Our switch guide covers this properly.
We post each month's verified list on Instagram, with the requirements in the caption — no spam, no "hurry, ends tonight" nonsense.
