The Offer
Direct link to offer, don’t share your referrals in the comments below. You can share them in this linked post.
- U.S. Eagle Federal Credit Union is offering a $90 referral bonus to both parties. To receive the bonus the person signing up must meet one of the following requirements:
- Any checking account with direct deposit
- A share certificate ($1,000 minimum)
- A loan or credit card
The Fine Print
- While each shareable link provided may be used for up to 25 simultaneous referrals, the number of referrals you may make is limited to 5 ($450 total).
- Each new member, however, may only be referred once. But then they’ll have referral sharing, too after their first 30 days of membership.
- All bank account bonuses are treated as income/interest and as such you have to pay taxes on them
Avoiding Fees
Monthly Fees
Life essentials checking has a $5 monthly fee. This is waived with e-statements, or if the primary account holder is under 18 or over 65.
Early Account Termination Fee
Wasn’t able to find a fee schedule so unsure.
Our Verdict
Normally we won’t post a bank bonus unless it’s for $100+ but given there is a referral element we made an exception. Just keep in mind you won’t be able to share referrals for 30 days after you sign up and the promotion ends 6/30. Don’t share your referrals in the comments below.
