Qualifying direct deposits include recurring electronic deposits of payroll, pension or Social Security. Person-to-person, bank transfers or other electronic money transfers, such as those made through Internet payment services, do not qualify. Checking Bonus will be credited to the account within 90 days of the account receiving the required qualifying direct deposits, as long as the account is still open at the time we seek to credit the bonus, and all of the eligibility requirements are satisfied.

Only the primary signer on the new checking account may be eligible for the Bonus. The promo code is required at account opening to qualify for the bonus.
