Yet another SBI company that gives you Ripple.

Stock Perks

Categories: Alternative Currency

Rights day

End of March

Details

Ripple, a cryptocurrency. In order to redeem it, you have to open an account at SBI VC Trade. I was able to open an account without much issue, but I do have permanent residency. In the signup page, foreigners are only asked if they have permanent residency or not, so I'm not sure having a different kind of visa would make it harder to open an account. The amount of Ripple you get is based on the price in late March.

Requirements

100 shares - 2,000yen worth of Ripple.

1,000 shares - 2,000yen worth of Ripple. If you hold the stock for one year or more, you will get ,000 yen worth of Ripple. 

Comment

The Ripple is a nice bonus and supplements the dividend well, it takes a few months for it to show up in your account once you redeem it, but you could just sell it right away once it deposits or HODL and hope to make more profits. If you're not invested in cryptocurrency, this is a relatively low-risk way to try it out.  This perk also exists for many other SBI companies, but SBI Global Asset Management is substantially cheaper than this if you just want Ripple.
