Cash Sweep Disclosures
The Moomoo Financial Inc. (MFI) Cash Sweep Program is a feature of the brokerage account and should not be viewed as a long-term investment or savings option. Interest is earned on the uninvested cash swept from your MFI brokerage account to program banks. Program banks then pay interest on your swept cash, minus any fees paid to MFI. The APY might change at any time at the program banks' or Moomoo Financial's discretion. Additionally, any fees Moomoo Financial receives may vary and is subject to change. Neither Moomoo Financial Inc. nor any of its affiliates are banks.

4.1.3 When will my free stocks be available for trading?
Step 1: Meet the promotion criteria. After finishing the required deposit during the promotion period, then maintaining an average asset balance for 60 days, your free stocks will get unlocked automatically. (Attention, if you withdraw assets during the bonus freezing period resulting in your account equity falling below the bonus threshold, you will not be able to claim the stocks. If you have not withdrawn any assets during the freeze period, but your assets have decreased by less than the bonus threshold due to trading or price fluctuations in the market, you can contact the customer service for help.)
Step 2: Within 3 trading days of the end of the 60-day waiting period, your stocks will be added to your account and available for trading.
4.1.4 Where can I check my daily net assets data?
You can view your assets via "Accounts" - "Total Assets" - "Assets Trend" to get an approximate assessment of your average daily assets.
4.1.5 How does moomoo calculate your average assets?
Your average daily assets will be calculated beginning the day after you claim and receive your free stocks.
For example, if you claim and receive your free stock on August 15, the average assets, for purposes of this promotion, will be calculated from August 16.
August 16: $200
August 17: $300
August 18: $500
…
October 14：$15,000
60-days average assets = $(200+300+500+……+15,000)/60
4.1.6 How many times can I participate in the promotion?
• Each customer can participate in this promotion only once and get one account Welcome Back Bonus.
• Each device is entitled to one Welcome Back Bonus. Other accounts on this device will no longer be able to receive the reward.
• After claiming your account Welcome Back Bonus, you can continue participating in other promotional events to get free stocks. Please check "Promotions & Events" for more details.
• Do not use any computer programs or virtual devices to participate in any moomoo promotional events on your behalf. Doing so will disqualify you from claiming any bonuses.

To prevent malicious claims of rewards, moomoo has set up a system risk control. If you have been misjudged, please contact the customer service.
4.1.8 Do I have to make a lump-sum deposit to meet the deposit criteria and get my bonus?
No. You can make deposits in any amount each time. If you successfully make an initial deposit during the promotion period and your average asset balance meets the promotion criteria, you will be eligible for the bonus.
4.2.1 What is the Cash Sweep Program?
Cash Sweep Program is a cash management program provided by Moomoo Financial Inc. This program is only open to US securities accounts under Moomoo Financial Inc. Uninvested cash is automatically swept to the bank(s) through this program and is eligible to earn interest.
When the cash purchasing power of the securities account is negative, the uninvested cash will be automatically redeemed from the bank(s) to the securities account before the transactions are settled to avoid the payment of financing interest. When the cash is positive, it will be automatically deposited in the bank(s) at 2pm EST of each trading day to earn interest.
More information can be found in the full MFI Cash Sweep Program Terms and Conditions:https://www.moomoo.com/us/support/topic4_222
The sweep program (1) allows an investor to earn a rate of interest on free cash that is higher than the rate offered for cash held in a brokerage account and (2) banks in the program offer insurance on such cash that is higher than that available for an SIPC-covered account.
The uninvested cash swept to program banks is eligible for FDIC insurance up to $1 million or $250,000 per program bank, inclusive of any other deposits you may already hold at the bank in the same ownership capacity, which may impact how much is covered. You are responsible for monitoring the total amount of deposits that you have with each Program Bank, in order to determine the extent of FDIC deposit insurance coverage available to you.
Please note that until funds are swept to a program bank, they are held in your brokerage account which is protected by SIPC. Once funds are swept, they are no longer held in your brokerage account and are not protected by SIPC. However, these funds are eligible for FDIC insurance through the Program Banks subject to FDIC insurance coverage limits.
4.2.2 How do I receive interest payments?
The interest in the Cash Sweep program is accrued daily and paid monthly, and will generally be paid to the swept account at the end of the month. You can use a filter to see all the records of the program in the securities account "fund details".
4.2.3 Is the 5.1% APY fixed forever?
Unfortunately no. Interest rates change for a variety of reasons and MFI reserves the right to change the interest rate available to Cash Sweep Program participants at any time and without notice.
4.2.4 Will it affect my buying power?
When participating in the Cash Sweep program, the funds deposited in the bank will still be considered as your securities' account purchasing power.
4.2.5 When will I get 5.1% APY after joining the promotions?
Eligibility for 5.1% APY will be granted to you within 3 trading days after your deposit reaches the specified amount.
Please note, eligibility for 5.1% APY will be granted on trading days of the US stock market. In case of a holiday, rewards will be delivered on the first trading day after the holiday.
4.2.6 What happens when the promotional period ends? Will it affect the promo APY rate for qualified existing users?
No, the rate should not be affected from the promotion ending. For example, if you deposit $500 today as an existing customer in order to gain the 5.1% APY for your uninvested cash, that rate should continue at the end of the promo period. However, that does not mean rates will always remain the same. APY rates are still subject to change depending on various factors, such as the Federal Funds rate, market and economic conditions.
4.2.7 Can I withdraw or invest my funds from the cash sweep program at any time?
Yes, you have the flexibility to withdraw or invest your funds at any time.
