Our Verdict

Marcus offered a similar deal in March 2019, then they offered a $500 deal in July 2019, and now the $100 deal again. It’s getting more and more worthwhile to hold a Marcus account as the bonuses all seem to be for new or existing customers, and they’ve never run a ‘new customer only’ promotion to wait for, far as I’m aware.

Locking up $10k for 60 days and getting $100 is a APY of roughly 6%, added to their competitive 1.7% regular interest rate (see Best Savings Rates) for a total 7.70% return. Pretty nice offer, especially if you already have a Marcus account open. I’ll probably wait until my Simple bonus finishes, then Enroll in this offer, and then fund Marcus account with the funds from Simple.

Thanks to all those who sent this one in.
