Guru’s Wrap-Up
An awesome bonus, but you need to be targeted. You get $500 if you open a new account and make one single direct deposit of at least $500 within 60 days after account opening. Keeping the account fee-free is also easy. Definitely worth doing if you are targeted. You do not qualify if you have had a KeyBank checking account during the past 12 months.

How do you get banks to want you to bank with them so that I can get a reservation number sent to me for a future promotion?
Im not sure who they target. Maybe people that live close to a branch. Maybe those that have loans or credit cards with them.
Why do you mention that it is targeted ? Where does it reference it ?
Requires a reservation number besides the promo code. It’s in bold in eligibility section.
The “promo page” link arrives at a page dated June, 2018, indicating online banking application service is currently unavailable.
