The bonus posted only after contacting them. My employer was not in their (small) system so I set it up the old fashioned way (numbers).

Got my bonus on 7/20. $50 despite being targeted for $25/$75. I did $1k in DDs.

Anyone received the bonus after meeting the conditions?

The Bonus Period expired on June 23, 2023 11:59 p.m. PT. The fine print further says “the Direct Deposit Bonus will be paid to your Rewards Checking account within 30 days of the end of the Bonus Period.” If my maff is correct, that means we should all be practicing some patience until around July 23.

I received this for a dormant account holding $1 which I am keeping open just for potential referral bonuses in the future. Their link wants me to somehow set up the direct deposit via their website, which isn’t something I am interested in. Instead, I “printed” out a form and will “submit” that my employer. This already seems a bit complicated and I have no idea if this will actually register me or not. But I did initiate real DDs from my employer and can update in due course.

No soup for me, all I got was this:

I got the $25 bonus email, but mine didn’t list any minimum of 1k-4,999 amount that’s posted above.

Haven’t seen it, but then I’ve never had more than a few hundred dollars in there at any one time and never will.
