Avoiding Fees
Monthly Fees
Business core checking has a $5 monthly fee that is waived with any of the following:
- $1,000 minimum daily balance each day of the month
- Have an Open Business Loan
Early Account Termination Fee
I wasn’t able to find any mention of one in the fee schedule.
Our Verdict
For the full bonus you’d need a $15,000 balance for three months, that works out to be a 24% APY and worth doing. Will add this to our list of the best saving account bonuses.
