Guru’s Wrap-Up
This is a decent bonus, but not the best around. It will take 10 month for you to get the full $350. You also need a large amount to keep the account fee-free. I’m also not sure if the referral bonus and the signup bonus stack for the people you refer.
If this bonus is not for you, then you can check our full list of available bank bonuses. And, if you’re new to bank account bonuses, you can learn more about churning bank accounts here.
