The Offer
- Traditions Bank is offering a $400 bonus when you open a new checking account and complete the following requirements (looks like you need to do for two statement cycles):
- At least 15 posted debit or credit point of sale (POS) purchases using your Traditions Bank debit card
- At least one ACH credit or debit (direct deposit or automatic payment) from your account
- Use of a monthly E-Statement
- A valid email address
The Fine Print
- Offer valid from 12/1/24-1/15/25 and is subject to change without notice.
- Offer does not apply to existing Traditions Bank personal checking account customers, owners, or those with signing authority on any other Traditions Bank personal checking account, or those who closed a Traditions Bank checking account within the last 12 months.
- The $400 bonus is deposited within 60 days of the end of the second statement cycle after opening a new PowerUp Checking account if all Account Qualifications** are met.
- Bonus is considered interest for tax purposes; please consult a tax advisor for details. For personal accounts only.
- 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 no monthly fees to worry about
Early Account Termination Fee
I wasn’t able to find a fee schedule so unsure if there is any EATF.
Our Verdict
They are merging with ACNB and they currently have a $400 bonus as well. Unsure if it’s possible to do both.
