The fine print that matters

  • Members with an existing checking account or one closed within the last 90 days do not qualify.
  • New checking accounts only; consumer accounts only.
  • ATM transactions and account transfers do not count toward the 12 required purchases.
  • Peer-to-peer transfers, mobile check deposits, and trial deposits do not count as qualifying direct deposits.
  • Checking and primary savings accounts must remain open and in good standing through the date the bonus is credited.
  • Maximum of one bonus per membership.
  • Bonus may be reported as income on a 1099.
  • Qualifying accounts are also automatically entered into a monthly sweepstakes for a $200 prize; no purchase necessary to enter.
