There may be benefits of leaving your investments in an employer plan, including but not limited to the benefit of an employer match or loan options.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS 

Promotion Period: January 10, 2024 (12:00 AM EST) through February 28, 2024 (11:59 PM EST).   

During the Promotion Period, this promotional offer is valid for new and existing M1 customers who successfully complete a retirement account rollover of at least $100,000 in aggregate (“Transfer Account Value¹”) during the Promotion Period (the “Rollover Promotion”). The appropriate M1 retirement account must receive a rollover funds request prior to expiry of the Promotion Period, and must also receive the rollover funds no later than fourteen (14) days after expiry of the Promotion Period. Any unsuccessful rollovers (requests, funds, etc) will be deemed ineligible. This offer is non-transferable, and not valid with any of the following: (i) internal transfers, (ii) ACH deposits (bank transfers), or (iii) wire transfers. Any rollover funds in the form of a written check must be post-marked no later than the last day of the Promotion Period, and received no later than fourteen (14) days after the close of the Promotion Period. Proof of mailing does not constitute proof of delivery. M1 is not responsible for any carrier loss or delay in delivery.   

Cryptocurrency, ACATS, internal transfers, ACH or wire transfers are not eligible for retirement rollovers. Additionally, any security transferred via rollover that is not traded by M1 will be liquidated, including but not limited to Mutual Funds and Over-The-Counter securities.  

If you satisfy the aforementioned conditions, M1 will make a one-time deposit into the cash balance of your M1 Payment Account³ equal to the applicable Promotional Credit² based on the aggregate Transfer Account Value¹ (see table below) on January 31, 2025 (the “Payout Date”), however, the following accounts are ineligible to receive any Promotional Credit: any retirement, custodial or trust accounts. The “Transfer Account Value” is determined as the current market value of all holdings and cash transferred during this Promotion Period, in aggregate, on the day the transfer is completed to the qualifying account which must remain equal to, or greater than, the value after the net deposit was made (minus any losses due to trading, market volatility or margin debit balances) at time of the Payout Date. Reallocation of any Transfer Account Value funds transferred for this Rollover Promotion either externally, or internally to any other M1 services (e.g., M1 Spend), prior to the Payout Date will disqualify you from the Rollover Promotion. The Promotion Credit deposited by M1 is a fixed cash value and does not constitute stock or any other security, nor is it a recommendation to buy any specific stock or other security. M1 may charge the account for the cost of the offer at its sole discretion. M1 reserves the right to restrict or revoke this offer at any time. This is not an offer or solicitation in any jurisdiction where we are not authorized to do business.
