Guru’s Wrap-Up
We have seen this offer in the past and it’s an easy way to make $250 inf you can complete the two $500 direct deposits. The offer is available nationwide and you can open the account online. However, you are not eligible for the bonus if you have or previously have had a Rewards Checking Account. So you can only do this bonus once.
Bank bonuses are a great way to earn some extra income, often from the comfort of your home. You can take a look at my bank bonus results for 2022 where I made over $6,000.
