Avoiding Fees

Active & Cash back checking accounts both have no monthly fees to worry about.
Early Account Termination Fee
Account must be kept open for six months otherwise the bonus can be revoked.
Our Verdict
Doesn’t look like there are any requirements for this bonus, that used to be a bigger deal but for most people it doesn’t matter as much as it’s much harder to churn lots of credit cards. Previous best bonus was $150 and that was offered back in 2017. We will add this to our best bank account bonuses.

Can’t find a way to open account online. I’m in WI, but driving 2 hours to nearest office not worth it.
Applicants must be over 18 and reside in Wisconsin.
If you reside outside of Wisconsin, the approval process will begin with an evaluation of whether we can adequately service your lending or deposit product needs.
Guess I’ll try this. Notary this time shouldn’t be an issue for me
Were you able to open without going in branch?
I called them and they seemed like they were setting up the application and they were going to email me a link so that I could secure upload some documents. They never emailed me. I called the next day and they said they decided they don’t want to deal with out of market people.

Denmark residents only! ;P
Do I need to be a Denmark citizen to apply?
Denmark, WI
I think in-branch only. Can’t find a way to apply online.
I called them and they said that OOS people need to have their accounts notarized. A pass for me
