The Offer
- Westmark Credit Union is offering a $250 bonus when you open a new checking account. Bonus is broken down as follows:
- $150 will be deposited into your account immediately upon account opening.
- The remaining $100 will be deposited after 90 days IF:
- A deposit of $1,000 or more is made to the account AND
- 15 transactions have been made.
The Fine Print
- All bank account bonuses are treated as income/interest and as such you have to pay taxes on them
Avoiding Fees
Monthly Fees
Eagle checking has no monthly fees.
Early Account Termination Fee
I wasn’t able to find a fee schedule s unsure if there is any EATF.
Our Verdict
Very easy bonus to meet the requirements for, worth doing especially if it’s a soft pull to open the account.
