You left off a local promotion from Bank of Texas.
https://www.bankoftexas.com/en/other/landing/promo/online_promo/offer.page?WT.mc_id=CN_PPC_Checking-14&WT.srch=1
Free $100 when you open account, setup direct deposit or make 10 card purchases and keeping account open for 6 months.
Capital One is not promoting the $450 bonus — I called and they told me if it is not on their site, its not a promo.
Read my review. It’s a combo of biz, personal, and credit card to get the full $450 total.
i need a promotion for a bonus … to open an online savings account …. anything ?
thanks
The mountain area credit union promo for $125 does not work, if anyone has the promotional page please send it to me.
Mountain Area CU AZ, NM, NV, and UT $125 None Review
Ally bank is also offer free antivirus too.
CBOLO bank up there says its for MI, but MI is michigan, not missouri. when you open the details, it says its for missouri.
thanks, it has been updated.
Can you please do a review on this bank?

It claims that a $100 for new checking.
$100 Coupon here
http://atms4free.com/
However, I am not sure it is legit or not. Some people said they have bogus charges such as checkbook order.
I don’t know if it’s legit. I tried opening an account with them and no hope for $100 bonus. I have tried calling customer services or even went to the local branches for help. Some tried to help me. Anyway I think they just have no idea about this promotion at all. I finally gave up (it’s been 6 months now) and will close the account soon.
First Bank, in Colorado, is giving away a Kendal Fire HD, $199 value.
I have no direct deposit, but i heard people create direct deposit from one account to another how? can this type of direct dep.qualified for bank bonus?
4. Valley National Bank –$150 Bonus Valley National Bank is now offering a $150 bonus for opening any one of their customer-friendly checking accounts. You get free checking for one year, a free order of checks, and free online banking, eStatements, mobile and text banking, debit card, and banking by phone.
If you open a checking account with Valley National Bank, you get $75 when you sign up for mobile banking, and an additional $75 when you enroll in online bill pay or start a monthly direct deposit. You must do this within 60 days of opening the account, and the money will appear within 90 days.
Please disregard previous post, I see it on local bank bonus list.
When you open accounts with some of these banks and you initiate direct deposit, do any of them require it to be recurring?
I’ve had luck with Chase and BBVA Compass in the past. (I set up direct deposits with them and they haven’t subtracted the bonus after I stopped my direct deposits.)
But some of the CSR’s I’ve talked to for the banks above claim that you need it to be recurring. (Some CSR claimed she NEVER heard of anyone setting up direct deposit and suddenly stopping it.)
I’m just wondering if anyone has signed up for a bunch of banks, set up direct deposits, collected, and pulled out. Thanks!
No need for recurring once the bonus has been deposited. The CSRs just scarring you to stop. However, for your Chase example, you do need to keep the Chase account to be opened for at least six months.
Cool! Have you tried this yourself, or have you heard per testimonials from others?
One of the ones on my prospective list that I would be concerned about is America’s Credit Union:
“The checking account must remain open for 12 months and have direct deposit or the $100 bonus will be debited (subtracted) from the account balance at closing.”
But regardless, this is probably the most up to date and comprehensive list of banking promotions I’ve come across. I’ll try to remember to come back here and post the specific banks I’ve used to become (hopefully) $6-$700 richer.
You need to make a category for incentives that do NOT require direct deposit..Would be a lot easier looking up and eliminating choices
@Marc – If you are having trouble with offers that require direct deposit, that is easily solved now with creative tools like:
Square Reader from AMEX: https://squareup.com/ – only 2.75% fee. Direct deposit made easily to the checking account of your choice the next day.
GoIntuit Card Reader :http://intuit-gopayment.com – 2.75% fee – Same type of set up.
Then there is also ING Direct -bank transfer that usually qualify as an ACH.
Anyway, just a few ideas to help your direct deposit challenge.
Good luck!
@Miles Momma
Does it really work?
Does banks really count that as direct deposit. What bank did you try it with, did it work.
BBVACompass bank is giving a $100 NBA Store gift card for opening an NBA Checking account with 25$ and making 3 bill pays. No direct deposit and No minimum balance. I did this in place of the free kindle fire because I don’t live in a state that is eligible. Have to go to bbvacompass.com/nba/.
Homestreet Bank in Portland OR has a really nice offer. 200-250 for opening plus requirements.
oh and big thank-you money hustler blog. I will have about 700$ in bank rewards this year and your site made it much easier to find them!
can someone please help im looking 4 a copy of usbanks offer to open a new account by the end of last november (2012) the bank con not find the offer that i gave them
Don’t bother with US Bank, they stiffed me and lied to me, I’m closing my account as soon as I find a better “real” deal.
I need Wells Fargo coupons
Thanks for the info and review. Chase Saving and other banks’ telemarketers has been calling me and offering me such promotions and bonuses. Now I know that some of them are legit.
What do you guys think about Citizens Bank? They offer huge bonus but are they a good deal? I live in NJ and there are lots of banks offering state bonuses and Citizens Bank has the higher bonus.
First Tennessee has a promotion going on right now: $200 for opening a checking account online with the promo code ‘summer’. It can be any of their four checking account types.
I signed up for the Express Checking account. It has a $5 maintenance fee that’s waived with DD and requires a $300 minimum initial deposit.
The offer is valid until August 15, 2013.
