Our Verdict
While not as lucrative as past offers, like the recent $750 bonus that only required $15,000 in deposits, this $800 bonus opportunity requires a $25,000 deposit. Remember, you need to maintain the funds for 60 days (technically only need to keep them for 31 days, just deposit by day 30 and maintain through day 61), so it’s a significant commitment, especially given the current high-interest rates. Due to this, we won’t be adding this to our list of the best bank account bonuses.
