Capital One 360 Savings and Checking Bonus
Capital One 360 is offering two bonuses for savings and checking accounts. The $25 bonus for checking account has been around for a while and probably not worth it, unless you are looking for a no-fee checking account. But the $100 bonus for the new savings product could be worth it, considering that it offers a 1.70% APY as well.

Guru’s Wrap-up
The 360 Performance Savings account is a new product that was introduced a couple of months ago. You can get a $100 bonus and a 1.70% APY, which is pretty competitive nowadays. You need to deposit at least $10K in the account to get the bonus, but there doesn’t seen to be any any requirement for keeping the balance in there.
Even you have money in a saving account or money market at Capital One 360 you are probably earning a lower rate, 0.60% and 1.50% APY respectively. So you should consider opening this new account, even without the bonus, so you can earn a better rate. I use Capital One as my primary bank. Also if you already have an account, you can refer friends for these bonuses and get $20 for every person that signs up.
