PNC Bank has a new offer for a $250 or $400 bonus when you open a PNC Virtual Wallet account. The offer is available until October 31, 2021, nationwide. Let’s take a look at how this PNC Bank bonus works.

You may earn a $400 reward if you open a new Virtual Wallet with Performance Select, a $200 reward if you open a new Virtual Wallet with Performance Spend. To qualify for the reward, the new checking account must be opened online via the application link on pnc.com/virtualwallet OR at a branch between 10/1/21 to 10/31/21, and a qualifying Direct Deposit(s) must be received within the first 60 days.

A new personal checking account must be opened online via the promotional link or at a branch using the coupon code that you receive via email upon request.
Your checking account must remain open in order for you to receive the initial bonus reward, which will be credited to the eligible account within 60 to 90 days after all conditions have been met.
A qualifying direct deposit is defined as a recurring direct deposit of a paycheck, pension, Social Security, or other regular monthly income electronically deposited by an employer or an outside agency into a Performance or Performance Select Checking Account, or the Spend Account of a Virtual Wallet with Performance Spend.
