Best bank bonuses in Rhode Island

Citizens offers personal checking in 14 states plus DC: Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia and Washington DC. The offer terms themselves name no excluded states. You must not have been a signer on another Citizens personal checking or savings account in the previous six months, and the account has to be opened through the link on the offer page rather than in a branch.

New TD checking customers only. TD pays one personal checking bonus per customer, ever: if you have received one before, at any time, you are not eligible for this one.

Available in CT, MA, NH, RI. New checking customers only.

New checking customers only. You are not eligible if you currently have, or have had, a Webster personal checking or savings account in the past 12 months, so the wait runs 12 months from the day the old account closes. Webster also limits the offer to one bonus per client. Must be a resident of an eligible state at the time of account opening. Offer valid through 9/30/26.

In-branch opening required. FL residents only eligible in Miami Dade, Monroe, and Broward Counties (including ZIP 34141). Not available if current checking customer or had Santander checking account in last 12 months. Requires 1+ direct deposits within first 90 days in addition to balance requirement.

Rhode Island only. Business checking account. Must open with funds from sources other than Washington Trust.

Washington Trust Company (Rhode Island). The bonus is offered on Student, Simply Free, Freedom Free, Freedom Plus and Freedom Ultra Checking. No dollar minimum is stated for the two direct deposits, but person to person transfers such as Zelle, Venmo and PayPal do not count. Limited to one cash bonus per tax reported owner. You are not eligible if you received a cash bonus on a previous Washington Trust account within the two years before this account opening date. No published end date.

New TD savings customers only (no TD personal savings/MMA held or closed in prior 12 months, and no prior TD savings bonus ever). East Coast states. Deposit $10,000 within 20 days of opening and hold 90 days. Expires July 30, 2026.

Membership: Navigant Credit Union field of membership (Rhode Island). New Journey Rewards Checking accounts only, limit one per member. The $100 is deposited within 60 days of account opening and your account must stay active and in good standing to receive it. The direct deposit, 12 debit card purchases and eStatement requirements you will see on the account page are what earn the 3.00% APY each statement cycle, not the cash bonus. Promotion ends December 31, 2026.

New customers only, and HSBC's definition is a lifetime one: "A 'New Customer' is someone who doesn't have a current or past HSBC account in the U.S. on file." A closed HSBC U.S. account from any point in the past disqualifies you, so this is not a 12-month or 24-month lookback. The Premier checking account must be opened by December 31, 2026. Premier qualification criteria also govern the $50 monthly fee waiver, with $100,000 in combined balances given as the example. Nationwide.

Open or upgrade to a new Chase Private Client Checking account by October 14, 2026. Top $3,000 tier requires $500,000+ in new money; $1,000 minimum tier requires $150,000. Requires an in-person/banker meeting to redeem the coupon.

New Chase business checking customers only. You are not eligible if your business already has a Chase business checking account, if you closed one within 90 days of opening it, or if you closed one with a negative balance in the past three years. Government entities, political action committees and campaign accounts are excluded, as are JPMorgan Chase employees. A signer can take one Chase business checking offer every two years counted from the last enrollment date, and only one offer applies per account. Chase does not open business deposit accounts for Hawaii businesses, so Hawaii owners cannot use this one. Chase business CREDIT CARDS are still available in Hawaii. Expires October 15, 2026.

Business checking. Promo code Q3DIG26. Expires September 27, 2026. New business checking customers only. Two accounts qualify and they are not priced the same: $1,200 needs the Platinum Business Checking Package and $25,000 held, and $400 needs U.S. Bank Business Essentials and $5,000 held. Business Essentials has no monthly maintenance fee. Platinum lists $30 a month but waives it at a $25,000 average collected checking balance, which is the same money the bonus asks you to hold.

Your business has to have annual revenue under $10 million. PNC states that limit on the offer itself, so check it before you plan anything else. New PNC business checking customers only, which means no signer on the account may already have signing authority on a PNC business checking account, have closed one in the past 90 days, or have been paid a PNC promotional premium in the past 12 months. Open a Treasury Enterprise Plan account between July 1, 2026 and September 30, 2026 and keep an average ledger balance of $30,000 or more for each of your first three statement cycles. Only the master account balance counts, so money sitting in linked beneficiary accounts does not. Your statements must cycle monthly; accounts on daily, weekly or quarterly statements are excluded. The plan lists at $50 a month but is $0 for the first three statement cycles and is waived at a $30,000 average balance, so the hold itself covers the fee. Analysis Business Checking also qualifies for the same $1,000, but avoid it unless you have a reason: its fee is only offset by an earnings credit on much larger balances, so at $30,000 you would still pay around $25 a month.

New business checking customers only. A business is not eligible if it currently owns a Wells Fargo business checking account or has closed one in the past 90 days. Sole proprietors qualify, and no LLC is required.

Available to Hawaii residents (Chase personal checking/savings bonuses are obtainable in HI). New Chase savings customers only. Not available if you closed a Chase savings account in the last 90 days or with a negative balance in the last 3 years. One savings bonus every 2 years. Combo bonus ($400) requires also completing checking direct deposit requirement.

Once-per-lifetime: not eligible if you've ever received a FourLeaf new-checking bonus, and only one checking bonus per person. Four Leaf FCU (formerly Bethpage Federal Credit Union, rebranded 2026). Membership is open to anyone nationwide who opens a $5 savings share, with no New York residency, employer group, association, or donation required (the easy Bethpage-era path survived the rebrand). Must be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident (green-card holder); requires SSN and a government photo ID. Account must be opened between 02/02/2026 and 12/31/2026.

Must not have had a BofA personal checking account in the past 12 months; one bonus per customer every 12 months.

Business checking. New BlueVine business checking customers only. New-customer terms: has NOT had a Bluevine Business Checking account open in the last 12 months (12-month cooldown, not once-per-lifetime).

OUT-OF-STATE IS ELIGIBLE with a member referral code, backed by multiple approved out-of-state datapoints (2026-07-20: 'approved as an out-of-state applicant'; 2026-06-09 OOS instant approval; 2026-07-21 instant approval on a friend's code). Without a referral, membership runs through the CA field of membership (Stanford affiliation, or FOPAL/MOAH association). Was previously coded CA-only, which hid the offer from every non-CA user. PULLS CHEXSYSTEMS, and small CUs tolerate churners poorly, with denials reported at high inquiry counts. One bonus per member (lifetime).

Available nationwide. U.S. Bank's own wording is that the offer "may not be available if you live outside of the U.S. Bank footprint" — that is a soft clause, not a hard block. If you are outside their branch footprint, members often qualify by first opening a U.S. Bank brokerage account or credit card and then applying for the checking account. U.S. Bank accounts are obtainable by Hawaii residents (online/existing-relationship), per direct HI experience. Must not have existing US Bank consumer checking, had one in the last 12 months, or received a US Bank checking bonus in the past 12 months. Not available with Trust Accounts or Alliance partnerships.

Nationwide; open online or at branch by August 31, 2026. No signer may have an existing PNC consumer checking account or have closed one within the past 12 months, and no primary signer may have received a PNC consumer-checking promotional premium within the past 24 months.

Not available to existing Chase checking customers, or if you closed a Chase checking account within 90 days or closed one with a negative balance in the last 3 years. Available to Hawaii residents (Chase personal checking/savings bonuses are obtainable in HI). Payroll, pension, or government benefits via ACH, RTP, FedNow, or Visa/Mastercard debit network qualify. Zelle, cash, checks, wire transfers, and interest do not. Micro-deposits do not qualify.

Primary owner only; must be new Wells Fargo checking customer and must not have received Wells Fargo consumer checking bonus in the past 12 months.

One direct-deposit bonus per SSN lifetime; new SoFi Checking & Savings users (and some existing users without prior DD setup) may qualify.
