A qualifying direct deposit is an electronic deposit of a paycheck from your employer (such as your salary or pension) which uses your account and routing number that you provide to them. Qualifying direct deposits include ACH (Automated Clearing House) and Real-Time-Payments. Other transfers and deposits – such as teller deposits, wire transfers, person to person payments (Zelle, Venmo, Apple Cash, PayPal, etc.), ATM transfers or deposits, Online and Mobile Banking transfers or debit card deposits and credits – do not qualify. There is no minimum balance to obtain bonus. The bonus will typically be deposited into your checking account within 60 days of direct deposit verification. For new checking accounts, the bonus will be deposited no later than five (5) months from account opening. Your account must be open and in good standing at deposit verification to qualify. Bonuses will be reported as income to the tax authorities, as required by law. You are responsible for any federal, state, or local taxes due on the bonus. Please consult your own tax professional and attorney for tax advice. Fiduciary accounts (e.g., trust and business accounts) are not eligible for the bonus offer. All standard account terms, conditions, and opening procedures apply.
