Three ways to claim your Move-In Cash. Pick the one that fits how you rent.
Your Move-In Cash arrives as a mailed check. Checks typically arrive in 4 to 5 months.
Open your Stake account and make your initial qualifying spend on your Stake Mastercard® Debit Card. Everyday purchases count. Hit your qualifying spend and your Move-In Cash is ready to claim in Stake. Plus, you unlock Neighborhood Cash earnings on your connected cards.
Open your Stake account and pay your first full rent through it. That payment unlocks your Move-In Cash. And every full, on-time rent payment after that earns you $10 in Cash Back on Rent.
Move-In Cash on top of everything else. On Unlimited, it stacks with Cash Back on Rent, so you earn on day one and every qualifying month.
Your Move-In Cash goes straight to you. No codes, no points to convert.
Your agent is paid by the property. You pay nothing.

The amount depends on your lease. Your agent will confirm the exact amount before you sign.
When you claim your Move-In Cash, you pick your path: a Legacy mailed check, Basic, or Unlimited. Your choice just sets how your Move-In Cash reaches you and what you can earn after.
It depends on your path. Legacy: your check arrives by mail after your move-in is confirmed. This process typically takes up to 4 to 5 months. Basic: your Move-In Cash is ready to claim in Stake once you hit your qualifying spend on Stake Debit. Unlimited: it’s ready to claim after your first full, on-time rent payment through your Stake account.
It depends on the path you choose. Legacy: your check arrives by mail, typically after 4 to 5 months. Basic: everyday spending on Stake Debit unlocks it, and the exact amount you need to spend shows in Stake. Unlimited: your first full rent payment through your Stake account unlocks it.
