Guru’s Wrap-Up

We rarely see $500 bonuses for checking accounts, but it also requires direct deposits totaling $10,000 or more within 60 days to get the maximum bonus. The problem is that we don’t know what counts as a direct deposit and we also don’t know if it is a soft or hard inquiry. Although for $500 it should even be worth a hard pull. I you have any data points please let me know.

Sadly it is limited to only a few states, and not available for me in NY.
