Avoiding Fees
There is no monthly fee associated with the free checking account that is required for this promotion, there is also no mention of any early account termination fee but they don’t publicly post their schedule of fees so we’re unable to confirm this is the case.
Our Verdict
This deal is pretty average, you only end up with a gift card rather than a straight cash bonus and it’s for a relatively small amount & requires a direct deposit. I wouldn’t recommend this deal until people have completed the much bigger bonuses currently available. In the mean time we’ve added this deal to our master list of new checking account promos.
