Go & Grow (formerly Bondora) is running several promotions at once right now – and they're worth a look. The highlight is the "Double or Nothing" giveaway, where your deposit can be doubled by up to €5,000. On top of that there's a €5 starting bonus for new customers and a community giveaway from me. In this post I walk through all three promotions step by step – the conditions, the deadlines and the draw dates – and tell you honestly what to watch out for.

As always, first the most important note: this is not investment advice and not a buy recommendation, just a look at a partner promotion. Go & Grow is a P2P investment – not a savings account, no deposit insurance, your capital is at risk. The link is a partner link: if you use it, you support my work at no extra cost to you.

The promotions at a glance

I explain all the promotions in the video too – including my community giveaway. Feel free to watch, or read on below.

Promotion 1: €5 starting bonus for new customers

If you're new to Go & Grow, you get €5 in starting credit through my link* right at registration. For the €5 to stay yours, you should invest at least €50 within 30 days – the free €5 do not count toward that – and then leave the money invested for a while (Go & Grow can reclaim the bonus if you withdraw too early).

Honestly framed: the €5 is a nice welcome, not the real reason for the promotion – that's the giveaway. And because bonus details on promo links can change, check the current terms directly at Go & Grow before you start.

Promotion 2: "Double or Nothing" – double your deposit

This is the centrepiece. The idea is simple: deposit money during the campaign period, and with a bit of luck your deposit gets doubled. Here's how it works:

  • Period: 12 August to 12 October 2026
  • Minimum: at least €1,000 net investment in the period (all deposits minus withdrawals). It does not have to be a single €1,000 deposit – the total counts.
  • Keep it invested: the deposited amount must stay in your account until the respective draw.
  • Entry: automatic, no sign-up required.
  • Who: all Go & Grow users – new and existing customers.

How to take part: 1. deposit at least €1,000 in the period, 2. take part automatically, 3. if selected, your deposit is doubled with an additional prize of the same amount – up to €5,000

How big is the prize? Per the blog and campaign page, as a winner you get a prize of the same amount as your deposit on top – so €2,000 extra on €2,000, €3,000 on €3,000 – capped at up to €5,000 per winner. From a €5,000 net deposit, the maximum prize is reached. Important: it's a giveaway – you only get the doubling if you're drawn.

The 8 winners and the draw dates

A total of 8 winners are drawn across five dates, with a total prize pool of up to €40,000:

Draw dates of the Go & Grow giveaway: 1 winner on 20 August, 1 on 3 September, 2 on 15 September, 2 on 28 September and 2 on 13 October 2026

If you're drawn, you're notified by email no later than 7 days after the draw, and the credit follows no later than 14 days after that – with no withdrawal restrictions. You can take part if you're at least 18, resident in the EU or Switzerland, and have a bank account in the EEA/Switzerland. You're responsible for any taxes on the prize yourself.

Promotion 3: My community giveaway

On top of the official Go & Grow promotions, I'm adding something extra for my community. I explain the details in the video and on my channel – head there if you want to join in. This third promotion is my own, independent of the two official ones above.

What is Go & Grow, anyway?

If Go & Grow is new to you: it's the well-known, savings-account-like product from Bondora (now "Go & Grow, formerly Bondora"). You deposit money that flows into a broadly diversified portfolio of consumer loans, and in return you earn a return of up to 6% p.a. The appeal is its simplicity and flexibility: no loans to pick, entry from just €1, no deposit limit, and you can withdraw at any time.

Go & Grow advertises returns of up to 6%* p.a. through daily returns

I've used Go & Grow myself for years as a flexible building block – as you can see above, my account currently sits at around €13,440. For me it's the liquid part of my P2P allocation that I can access quickly.

So the promotion doesn't overshadow the risks, here's the honest framing:

  • Return "up to 6%" – explicitly not guaranteed, your capital is at risk.
  • Withdrawal is possible at any time, but usually takes up to 3 business days, and there's a €1 fee per withdrawal.
  • No deposit insurance – these are unsecured consumer loans, not a savings account.

Who is the promotion right for?

A good fit if you…
  • want to deposit into Go & Grow anyway or start a flexible account
  • want to invest at least €1,000 in the period and grab the chance to be doubled
  • want to pocket the €5 starting bonus as a new customer
  • understand and accept the risks of P2P investments
Less relevant if you…
  • don't want to or can't invest €1,000
  • don't want to leave your money invested until the draw (until October)
  • need a guaranteed return or deposit insurance
  • can't bear the capital risk of unsecured consumer loans

Verdict: a strong promo package – with a clear eye on the risks

The combination is genuinely strong: on a product I already use and like, there's currently a €5 starting bonus for new customers and the chance to double your deposit by up to €5,000 with the "Double or Nothing" giveaway – plus my community giveaway. If you're already considering depositing into Go & Grow, the timing is hard to beat.

Two things to keep in mind: it remains a P2P investment with capital risk and no guaranteed return, and for the giveaway you have to leave at least €1,000 invested until the draw. If that works for you, you can grab the promotions here: go to Go & Grow through my link*.

Frequently asked questions

How does the Go & Grow Double or Nothing promotion work?

You deposit at least €1,000 into your Go & Grow account during the campaign period (12 August to 12 October 2026) and then automatically enter the draws – no sign-up needed. If you're drawn, your deposit is doubled with an additional prize of the same amount, capped at up to €5,000 extra per winner. There are 8 winners in total and a prize pool of up to €40,000.

How much do I have to deposit to take part?

At least €1,000 during the campaign period. What counts is your net investment, i.e. all deposits minus withdrawals during the campaign. It doesn't have to be a single €1,000 deposit – the total counts. Important: the money must stay invested in your Go & Grow account until the respective draw.

Is my deposit really doubled?

Per the blog and campaign page, as a winner you get a 'prize of the same amount' on top of your deposit – so €2,000 extra on a €2,000 deposit – capped at up to €5,000. From a €5,000 net deposit, the maximum prize is reached. It's a giveaway: you only get the doubling if you're drawn as one of the 8 winners.

When are the winners drawn?

8 winners are drawn across five dates: 1 winner on 20 August, 1 on 3 September, 2 on 15 September, 2 on 28 September and 2 on 13 October 2026. You're notified by email no later than 7 days after the draw, and the payout follows no later than 14 days after that.

Do I get a starting bonus as a new customer?

Yes: through my link you get €5 in starting credit as a new user upon registration. For the €5 to stay yours, you need to invest at least €50 within 30 days (the free €5 don't count toward that) and leave the money in for a while. Check the current bonus terms before signing up, as details can change.

Does the giveaway also apply to existing customers?

Yes. The campaign terms make no distinction: all Go & Grow users who deposit during the period automatically take part – new and existing customers. Only employees of the Bondora Group and their relatives are excluded. You need to be at least 18, resident in the EU or Switzerland, and have a bank account in the EEA/Switzerland.

Is Go & Grow legit and how safe is my money?

Go & Grow (formerly Bondora) has been around for many years; Bondora has been on the market for roughly 17 years. Your money goes into a broadly diversified portfolio of consumer loans. Still: it's not a savings account, there's no deposit insurance, the return of up to 6% p.a. is not guaranteed, and your capital is at risk. Only invest money whose loss you could handle.

Until when does the Go & Grow promotion run?

The 'Double or Nothing' giveaway runs over the deposit period from 12 August to 12 October 2026, with the final draw on 13 October. Since promotions can change, it's best to check the current campaign page via my link before depositing.
