Conclusion
These are very good bonuses for checking account. The $500 bonus might be the best option when it comes to return on your investment. You need to keep the $15K in the account for about 4 months, so that would make it a 10% return. But the offer is targeted. If you don’t have a mailer, then check out this promotion for up to $700, which could be available in branches.
