IOLTA and non-profit accounts are excluded, and it is one bonus per business by tax ID or address.

New consumer checking customers only. You cannot have had a consumer checking account with Fulton Bank in the last 24 months, and the offer is one cash bonus per person. If you open more than one account, only the first qualifying account earns it.

The credit union states the footprint itself: "Business must be located in MD, PA, DE, WV, VA, or the District of Columbia." Existing SECU personal members are NOT shut out. The only relationship bar is on the business side: "If you are an existing or previous business member, you must not have had one of the eligible business checking account types within the last 24 months." SECU membership is still required to open, and the public route in is a one-time donation to the SECU MD Foundation.

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 NC and VA. New checking customers only.

New business checking customers only. Use promo code BD, which applies automatically if you open online. Online opening is available to sole proprietors only, so any other entity type has to go into a branch.

State restricted to CT, DC, DE, MD, NJ, NY, PA, VA and WV. Open by September 30, 2026. The bonus opens Business Essential at $5 a month waived at a $1,000 average ledger balance, Plus at $15 waived at $7,500, or Premium at $25 waived at $10,000, so pick the account whose threshold your deposit already clears; the fee is also waived automatically for the first three months, which covers most of the hold.

Available in NC and VA. New members only.

You are not eligible if you already have a checking account with 1st Advantage. Membership covers Hampton Roads and the Virginia Peninsula plus northeastern North Carolina.

City National Bank of West Virginia (bankatcity.com, not CIT or City National Bank of California). The bank describes this as an offer for select customers, so confirm you are eligible before you count on it. Limit one bonus per household. Not available to Teen Checking customers, existing checking customers, fiduciary accounts, or anyone whose account has been closed. The bonus cannot be used as your opening deposit. Described as a limited time offer with no published end date. Ohio, Virginia and Kentucky were added because the bank's own About page says it serves customers across West Virginia, Kentucky, Virginia and Ohio in more than 95 locations. The offer's own terms name no states, so this rests on where the bank operates rather than on the promotion's wording.

Membership eligibility required. Cannot have received previous new member or direct deposit promotions from Lafayette FCU in past 12 months. Business accounts excluded.

Offer runs January 1, 2026 through 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.

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.
