Chase Sapphire Banking $1,000 Bonus
Chase Sapphire Banking is a fairly new banking product from Chase. Both new customers and those who upgrade an existing Chase account can now get a $1,000 bonus. This is the best bonus they have offered for this account. We have previously seen offers for $750 or 60,000 Ultimate Rewards points.

- Within 45 calendar days, transfer a total of $75,000 or more in qualifying new money or securities to a combination of eligible checking, savings and/or investment accounts, and maintain that balance for at least 90 days.

- Customers must have a Chase Sapphire® or Chase Freedom® credit card that is open and not in default at the time of enrollment and at points fulfillment, and be the primary cardmember on the account.
- Offer not available to existing Chase Sapphire Banking and Chase Private Client customers.
Fees
There is a $25 Monthly Service Fee for Chase Sapphire Checking OR $0 when you have an average beginning day balance of $75,000 or more in any combination of this account and linked qualifying deposits/investments.
Other Chase bank bonuses require you to keep the account open for 6 months. But for this bonus, there’s no time limit mentioned. It could be worth checking before closing the account, or just keep it opened for 6 months until we see data points that show otherwise.
Guru’s Wrap-Up
This Chase Sapphire Banking $1,000 bonus is huge. But you need to deposit a large amount, $75,000, and keep it in there for 90 days. Investment and savings accounts are also eligible, so those could be better options than just a checking account. The best way to go would be to get this $600 bonus first and then do the upgrade offer.
Terms also state that the bonus may be reportable to you and the IRS on Form 1099-INT. You can read more here about what to do when tax time comes around.
