Best Checking Account Bonuses
Chase $300 Checking Bonus
One of the all time great bonuses that is regularly offered, this is one I recommend readers do whenever they are eligible. It does require a direct deposit but because it’s so popular there are a lot of data points on what does/doesn’t work and there is no minimum direct deposit required. Can also be paired with a savings bonus (see below). If you do both the checking & savings bonus you can get a further $100 bonus as well, but this has new language in it that restricts you from getting based on when you last opened a Chase deposit account.

Wells Fargo $400 Checking Bonus
Huge bonus and recent data points suggest ACH is working fine for the direct deposit, but bonuses take awhile to actually post. .

- Can fund up to $50 with a credit card
- Direct deposit of $3,000+ per month for three months required
Citi $200/$400/$500/$600 Checking Bonus – No Direct Deposit Required
Direct links to offer: $200 | $400 | $600
No direct deposit is required, but a balance of $5,000/$15,000/$50,000 is required for 60 days. I only really think the $200/$400 bonus is worth doing, especially as $50,000 is required for the $600 bonus to keep the account fee free. You can also get an additional $100 on the $400 bonus by doing a direct deposit.

PNC $200/$300 Checking Bonus
Previously this was only available in selected states, it’s now available nationwide. It does require quite high direct deposit requirement, but lots of data points on what does/doesn’t work. Might be able to get a $400 in branch offer as well.

Can fund up to $2,000 with a credit card.Unfortunately this now codes as a cash advance- $5,000 direct deposit required for full $300 bonus
HSBC – Up To $750 Bonus – No Direct Deposit Required
HSBC can be a big pain to deal with, so make sure you read the comments to understand what you’re getting yourself into before signing up. I don’t think the $750 bonus is worth doing, but the $350 bonus is.

Xceed Financial Credit Union $200 Referral Bonus
Requires a referral and also overdraft protection. Usually overdraft protection results in a hard pull, but it looks like you can avoid this by selecting “order of sources” as savings transfer and not line of credit as per this comment. Bonus itself is good, especially if you can get a friend or family member to refer you and split their $200 bonus or if you can refer some friends/family members yourself.

- Unknown if credit card funding is possible
- Direct deposit of $500+ required for two months
Bank of America $100/$300 Bonus
First check to see if you’re targeted for the $300 bonus, if you are do that. The $100 bonus isn’t as good as the $150 referral bonus that was offered earlier in the year, but not everybody was able to get in on that and this is a good back up offer.

Discover Checking Account – $30 Per Month ($210 Maximum)
Really only attractive for people that can spend a lot on their debit card and wouldn’t be able to put that spend on a credit card (otherwise just use a 2% credit card).

Charles Schwab $100 Bonus
Usually bank bonuses with a hard pull don’t make it to this page, this one is interesting because the account is quite useful (e.g ATM fees reimbursed, no fees for foreign transaction withdrawals) and you can also get this account and a brokerage account at the same time for one hard pull. The brokerage account then gives you access to the Charles Schwab credit cards. Obviously not for everybody, but a pretty good combination.

The Christian Ministry requirement seems to be enforced and will rule out a lot of people, if you are eligible though this is a great deal.

Best Saving Account Bonuses
Discover $150/$200 Savings Bonus
Requires deposits of $15,000/$25,000, the great thing about this bonus is that cumulative deposits work (e.g depositing/withdrawing $5,000 three times) and there is no deposit length requirement. Easily the best savings bonus currently being offered.

Capital One $500 Money Market Bonus
Requires a deposit of $50,000 for 90-100 days. Account earns currently 2% APY interest so it makes sense if you have the cash. There’s a similar offer for Venture cardholders to get 50,000 miles instead which may result in a tax savings.

Chase $200 Savings Bonus
Requires a deposit of $15,000 for 90 days, makes sense for someone who doesn’t want to tie up $25k with the $300 offer. If you do both the checking & savings bonus you can get a further $100 bonus as well, but this has new language in it that restricts you from getting based on when you last opened a Chase deposit account.

HSBC $125 Savings Bonus
Previously this offer was $100, now it’s $125. You should be able to use funds in this account to qualify for the checking bonus for up to $700 as well. I’d open the checking account first as that bonus is much larger.
BBVA Compass $100 Money Market Bonus
Most annoying part of this bonus is that it requires $10,000 in the account to keep fee free and the account must be kept open for 12 months otherwise you forfeit the bonus. The upside is that the account itself earns 2.4% APY which is competitive compared to other basic savings rates.

Hancock Whitney $100 Savings – LA, MS, FL, AL, TX

Best Business Bank Bonuses
There are a lot less business bank bonuses than personal bonuses, you can view all of them here.
Wells Fargo $1,000 Business Checking
Definitely worth doing if you haven’t done it before. The $1,000 bonus is more difficult than the $500 bonus previously offered as it requires depositing $25,00 and realistically that needs to be kept deposited for 210 days.

Not nationwide like the personal bonus unfortunately. They have offered a $300 bonus in the past, but that hasn’t been available for some time. It’s also now easier to keep the account fee free and because of that we’ve added it back to this list.

PeoplesBank (Bankatpeoples) $400 Bonus- MA & CT – No Direct Deposit
Huge bonus and no direct deposit requirement. Some people seem to have trouble getting approved, I don’t think it’s Chexsystems sensitivity because others with a lot of accounts have been approved. I don’t see this bonus lasting that long.

Nice bonus made even better by the fact that direct deposit isn’t required.
SunTrust Up To $750 Checking Bonus [AL, AR, FL, GA, MD, MS, NC, SC, TN, WV, VA, and D.C Only]

North Shore Community Bank $300 Checking Bonus – IL, In Branch only

BMO Harris $300/$500 Checking Bonus – AZ, FL, IL, IN, KS, MO, MN and WI
Was a lot more popular when it was a nationwide bonus. Can be a bit of a hassle actually doing this one, but worth considering if you’ve done all the better deals above. Now more attractive because it’s $300 for opening a checking instead of only $200.
Bank & Trust /$350 Checking Bonus – CO, IL, WI, MT, CA, AZ, TX, NM & IA
Not all states have the $350/$700 offers and the $700 offer does require $50,000 in funds so keep that in mind.

Another relatively small bonus, but with no monthly fee to worry about.
BB&T $200 Bonus -AL, DC, FL, GA, IN, KY, MD, NC, OH, SC, TN, TX, VA, WV- No Direct Deposit Required

Would be higher on the list but requires opening the account in branch.
Fidelity Bank $200 Checking Bonus – Northeastern PA only

SECU $200 Checking Bonus – MD Only
Previously this has only been available to existing customers. This time it’s available to new and existing customers.
Farmers & Merchants State Bank – $200 Checking Bonus – Must Be Under 25 & OH, IN & MI Only – Direct Deposit Not Required
Need to be under 25 years of age and they are Chexsystems sensitive, still if you’re eligible and can get approved then this is a bonus worth doing.
Community First Credit Union $160 Bonus – FL only
No monthly fees to worry about and a nice bit of credit card funding as well.

Ameris Bank $100 Checking Bonus – FL, GA, SC, AL

Another relatively small in branch bonus, still worth doing if you live near a branch and have done the bigger bonuses listed above.

Lyons National Bank $175 Checking Bonus – Cayuga County, NY
Requires your full pay check to be direct deposited, this is sometimes manually checked with these smaller branch bonuses so it’s definitely something to keep in mind if you can’t easily change your direct deposit.
Unify Financial Credit Union $150 Bonus – Collin County, TX
Not as good as the previous $100 + two LA rams tickets that could be sold for well over $100, but it’s still worth considering/doing if you missed that one. Unfortunately no longer nationwide

Suntrust just came out with a $100 checking bonus:
https://www.suntrust.com/Microsites/Checking/everydaypromo/index.html
Make a $500 or more direct deposit and we’ll give you $100 (within 60 days of account opening)
Online via the link above only what what I see – Suntrust via online chat said – this account is a soft credit pull + Chexsystems.
Unknown as to the duration of this offer.
very interesting you can use any rewards card to redeem rewards for a direct deposit ive tried chase ultimate just press redeem rewards for cash and type in the amount you would like to redeem
Dude, put down the crack pipe and get a real job.
Any time you can legally steal money from a bank, you are morally obligated to do so.
Hayden, I continue to crack up at this comment! 😉
+1… ABSOLUTELY.
How do you find out where your 401k is
Hey Doc, how do you go about opening so many bank accounts?
I have a few that I’m very interested in doing (First Niagra, Santander, Chase), but I’m worried to try because I opened 4 in the past few months. I could always try and get denied, at worst, but then it would just be an additional inquiry.
(Funny to talk about inquiries on Chex, when we’re used to talking about credit report inquiries.)
What’s your experience been? Have you ever been denied due to inquiries? Do you make sure to space them out by a month or two? Thanks!
Hey Chuck,
I’ve never personally been denied but this year is the most aggressive I’ve been. As you said at worse you’ll be denied, I’m not planning on opening accounts for any major reason (e.g a mortgage) and I already have an everyday account I’m happy with. That said, I probably wouldn’t do more than 8 this year.
I’m trying to work out the sweet spot and which banks are inquiry sensitive and which aren’t.
Not sure that this information helps, but have been approved for 10 accounts now open for one year or more and 11 more which have been open less than a year (mostly checking). Some form of bonus paid on all of these except for one which I missed a direct deposit requirement. Expect to continue pursuing additional opportunities but am planning on closing some of the seasoned accounts which aren’t considered “everyday” accounts.
hi Win, I live in Wisconsin and was wondering if you would help me add some banks or credit union branches to receive bonuses?? I have Chase, Monona Bank at the moment. Thank you for your assistance
Almost all information came from Doctor of Credit. If I find a new account bonus, it’s sent to DOC so all readers are made aware of it. Thanks!
I’ve been personally denied at one bank, but I called to find out why. Some banks are more finicky than others, and are more stringent on their requirements from your Chex report. Just call, ask why you were denied, and as if they can review the application. Most of the time the denials are purely algorithm based. A human can reverse the decision.
did you see the nationwide bank checking bonus $200?

Any advice for handling the direct depoit aspect without Amazon Payments or a job that will let you switch your deposits temporarily?
A simple ACH transfer from one of your existing accounts usually works but it varies by banks. We put together this page which has hundreds of data points on what has triggered bonuses in the past: https://www.doctorofcredit.com/knowledge-base/list-methods-banks-count-direct-deposits/
I already have Chase checking, so not bothered. But I have $175 savings acct offer that I would like to go for. Can’t find just the $200 bonus for savings in e-bay. $175 a good deal?
I would honestly wait for Chase to put out the $600 coupon bonus for $300 checking and $300 savings.
The $300 total checking is just as good as long as you’re not going to complete the $300 savings portion, which I think most people wouldn’t.
If you cancel your Chase checking account and wait 90 days, you can get that bonus. If you’re going to do the savings portion, I’d wait for a $300 savings coupon to come around personally.
The latest bonuses have wording that say only one bonus per calendar year
They’ve said that for awhile, I just assumed that since this person already had an account they didn’t recently get a bonus for it – thanks for making it clearer though!
90 days but not in the same calendar year – once a year
Sam, CHASE was my main bank for years. But after taking advantage of the CAP ONE, Wells, etc. promotions it simply made sense to close CHASE checking for two reasons:
1) I don’t have to maintain it (spend time on some action every month or keeping a balance that waives the fee)
2) Closing the account qualifies me for $300 ninety days later for reopening.
So when you say you “don’t bother” you are stating that leaving CHASE for 3 months isn’t worth $300 to you (assuming the same promo will exist, and we have no reason to believe at this point it won’t).
Just my opinion, but if I were you I’d close the account and come back in October and get BOTH bonuses.
Suntrust has a good bonus as well. I was able to sign up for it online here in Cali yesterday for the $200 checking bonus.
Yeah good point, think I’ll replace the $150 Chase bonus with this.
I followed the direct link for this offer and it said it had expired. Is it still live somewhere?
Thanks for putting together the bonuses information. Do you know if any of the above banks let you open a checking/saving with no SSN. I have only ITIN (tax id) and AMEX cc on my name (just got it last Nov with ITIN).
Not that I know of, maybe somebody else knows of some though?
Just use the ITIN in place of the SSN. Banks do not care about the difference, they just want to comply with laws that ask them to request the number and have a number to keep track of your account with.
Thanks, Ryan.
Citi now has a $400 offer for opening a Citigold account, and storing $50,000 there for 15 days.
Code CZGA.
Saw it on hustlermoneyblog.
Citi is jerking me around fulfilling the $400 bonus.
Many emails a few phone calls. Every time I’m told another week, they provide a reference number. When that time passes I call again and get a new date and another reference number. Going on 120-130 days now, still no bonus
Same happened to me in 2015? 16? I had to insist they verify to me that the bonus code was in the record (I had written it in my calendar on the day I opened the account). They finally verified it and then claimed they hadn’t received the W-9 & wouldn’t pay until they did. Many, many hassles with Citi from day one! Lots of calls & emails & chats to incompetent employees.
P.S. to the Editor: The first Key Bank $300 bonus listed above for May 2019 includes WA in the title & link, but that bonus offer actually ISN’T for WA;, the second one IS. Please fix to avoid further confusion. Thanks.
P.P.S. Posting here because top comment option won’t work…not here nor on the Key Bank details page!
Citizens bank has $100.00 bonus for new customers. Requirement is two bill payments (different bills) through citizens online banking
You forgot to mention Legacy Bank and Trust in iprofit account offering 4.00%APR on checking accounts with requirements that can be found here: https://www.legacybankandtrust.com/checking_accounts#iprofit
Don’t see a way to open an account online so looks like you have to live in Missouri. Wish it were available to everyone.
Any new information on the ACH procedures potentially marking transactions as P2P and not being counted as direct deposits?
Nope, read this though: https://www.doctorofcredit.com/changes-to-the-way-ach-transfers-are-coded-the-ramifications-for-bank-bonuses/
It looks like the Capital One business savings account offer has expired — at least that’s the message I received just now when I clicked through and then clicked on the Open Now button.
Diamond – I signed up my account on the 8th of this month (April) the payment did not post, I called them today and they quickly posted two $50 payments to my account.
The Citi offer has expired. Called in this morning (Apr 6) and rep informed me the offer expired. Strange thing is the code still seems to work but I’m cautious and don’t want to risk using the code unless a rep can confirm offer is still valid. Will try calling again later today to speak to a different rep.
Let us know how you get on, the offer was due to expire though.
Hello Community,
If anyone is in need to $300 Total Checking & $150 Savings Account coupon. You can email me @ vijnatarajan@gmail.com and I’ll email you the coupon code. Looks like chase has taken down that offer but for helping people I saved couple of coupon codes.
Cheers,
Vijay
