Avoiding Fees
There is no early account termination fee, but you’ll need to keep the account open for at least 100 days to get the bonus. The actual checking account does not have any fees associated with it, but there might be a joining fee for the credit union.
Our Verdict
Unity bank has previously offered a $200 bonus on this business checking account, so it might be worth holding out for that bonus to come back around. One of the reasons I like business checking promos more than personal promotions is that they usually do not have a direct deposit requirement.
I would recommend this bonus to business owners in PA & NJ, but we’re not sure if it’ll result in a hard credit pull or not. If you can confirm this, please let us know in the comments section below. Here is a list of the current best bank promotions.
