- (b) Set up a recurring deposit to your new Bonus Checking account within 30 days of account opening.
- The second instance of your recurring deposit activates the bonus. A $200 deposit will be made to your Bonus Checking account the day following the second deposit. Existing Numerica members do not qualify for the $200 bonus. You must qualify for membership. Limit one $200 bonus per individual (based on Social Security Number).
- All bank account bonuses are treated as income/interest and as such you have to pay taxes on them
Avoiding Fees
Monthly Fees
This account has no monthly fees to worry about.
Early Account Termination Fee
I wasn’t able to find any early closure fee in the fee schedule.
Our Verdict
Looks like opening out of state does work, unclear if the bonus will pay out. Worth doing as no direct deposit is required, I suspect this will be shut down quickly if out of state does work though.
