Update 4/25/26: The bonus is now $250. Hat tip to Bockrr

Update 6/13/20: The deal is back and valid until August 16, 2020. A little better than before, with fewer requirements for the same bonus. Latest PD says soft pull, but previous data points say hard, so YMMV. Hat tip to the reader for him

Offers

Direct link to the offer

• TruMark Financial offers a $250 bonus when you open a new checking account and receive qualifying direct deposits totaling $1,000 or more within 90 days of account opening.

Fine Press

• To qualify for the $250 bonus, the member must open a new Momentum Checking Account and receive qualifying direct deposits totaling $1,000 or more within 90 days of account opening. Qualifying direct deposits include payroll, pensions or government benefits made via ACH; Person-to-person payments, account transfers, mobile deposits, cash and bank transfers do not qualify. The $250 bonus will be awarded via 25,000 reward points, redeemable through the Credit Union’s rewards portal, approximately 6-8 weeks after requirements are met. The member may not have had a checking account with the Credit Union within the last 12 months. Account must be open and in good standing at time of fulfillment. The offer is valid until 30.6.26 and may be changed or discontinued at any time.

Avoidance of fees

The monthly fee is waived if you do any of the following:

• Get $1,000 or more in total electronic deposits, or
• Make 15 combined debit and credit card transactions, or
• Be under the age of 26

Our verdict

Update: Now that it’s a hard draw, I wouldn’t recommend this bonus as you can get one much higher credit card sign up bonus.

Pretty good bonus as you can get a lot of it without a direct deposit, no monthly fees to worry about and you can finance with a credit card. Because of this we have added it to our best check bonus page.

Big thanks to reader Doug for letting us know. Please consider sharing your bank bonuses with this site so we can make it even better.
