The Offer
- Found is offering a $125 bonus when you open a new checking account and complete the following requirements:
- Reach a $5,000 balance within the first 30 days of account opening and maintain it for an additional 30 days to receive a $125 bonus
- There is also a $100 referral bonus when you spend $1,000 on the debit card, I do not think these offers stack
The Fine Print

- This offer is valid through 12/31/2024 and is limited to one reward per account.
- Incentive rewards are deposited into your Found account on or before 30 days of meeting the incentive requirements.
- 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 a fee schedule so unsure if there is any EATF.
Our Verdict
Feel free to share your referrals in the comments below, I don’t think it’s possible to stack the bonuses though and actually think the $125 bonus might be easier for most people.
