Our Verdict

$100 isn’t a huge bonus, but the requirements are easy to meet and no monthly fees to worry about. Unfortunately it’s a hard pull so I don’t think it’s worth doing. You can view more bank account bonuses here.As always please share your experiences with this bank/bonus in the comments below.

    • Do they check whether someone has a family member in their counties?
      I live in south TX. I used you code, it works but they require me to have video banking. I don't know if they will ask me about family member. My home address prevents the application from being automatically processed.

      • link appears to be working. It will ask you for your name and email. Then it will tell you to enter the promo code REFUPPAL when you apply online. You have 1 months from time of registering your email until you apply. I don't believe the link is needed at all. Just be sure to enter the promo code and meet the offer terms and you should be fine. Best of luck! @guest_1508373
