- Consolidated Community Credit Union is offering a $100 Amazon gift card when you open a new checking account and complete the following requirements:
- Open a direct deposit checking account (must be entire paycheck)
- Make at least eight debit transactions
- Log into Online Banking at least once
- Have a valid e-mail on file

- Offer subject to end without notice.
- Only valid for new checking accounts.
- See credit union for further details.
- All bank account bonuses are treated as income/interest and as such you have to pay taxes on them
Avoiding Fees
Direct checking account has no monthly fees to worry about. I wasn’t able to find any mention of any early account termination fee in the fee schedule.
Our Verdict
Personally I don’t see this as worth it, looks like they will be strict on the direct deposit requirement and even if not looks like you need to open in branch and complete a lot of requirements for a bonus of $100 Amazon gift card. Much better deals out there, because of that I won’t be adding this to the best checking bonuses.
