The Offer
- First National Bank is offering a bonus of $800 when you open a new Compak business checking account and complete the following requirements:
- Deposit a minimum of $10,000 in new money within the first 30 days.
- Maintain an average minimum balance of $10,000 at 6 months (180 days) after the initial 30 days.
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
This account has the monthly fee waived with a $1,500 min. daily balance.
Early Account Termination Fee
$50 fee if closed within 180 days of account opening
Our Verdict
This works out to be a 16% annualized return so worth doing if you have some liquid funds that you want to earn a high rate. We’ve seen a previous bonus for up to $1,000 that was most likely better as the deposit requirement was smaller but there is no guarantee we will see that again so we will put this one on the list of the best bank account bonuses.

This bank refused to pay out the bonus despite meeting the requirements, as they deemed “my activity to undermine the intent behind the promotion.” A CFPB complaint resulted in nothing but a FU response.
Any bonus success for accounts opened in October of 2024 yet?

Anyone have any luck increasing the dumb $1000 AHC limit? I have a call out to my local branch (hate that this bank requires you to do work with a branch versus simple stuff over the phone) but so far, no call back.
Ended up just using US Bank to do ACH pulls. FNB seems to be kind of a joke from a customer service perspective.

Any one received this bonus yet?
Opened in late July, got bonus late Feb
Was it exactly 7 months?
Had received a $600 mailer for $300 for $2500 DD and $300 for 15+ debit transactions.
10/3/24 – Opened eStyle account
10/31/24 – $2505 real DD
15+ debit transactions, combination of ~$1 Discover CC bill pays, small amount debit card transactions, and ATM withdraws.
Looks like just missed being able to churn this again in 2025, as the language is 1 bonus paid per calendar year.
Denied due to inability to verify identity with frozen Chex, looks like I’ll need to go in-branch.
