KeyBank BusinessBusiness checkingWashington localDeposit onlyHard
$1,000$25 deposit/holdNo monthly fee$25,000 of your own money

There is no online application for this account. The only way in is to book an appointment with a KeyBank banker and open it with them, so you need to be able to reach one of KeyBank's branches. The states listed are where those branches are. KeyBank's terms for this business offer set no residency rule and exclude no state, so if you can get to a branch you can open it.

WSECUCheckingWashington localDirect depositMedium
$500Direct deposit + activityNo monthly feeDebit card transactions on top of the deposit

Washington. WSECU's own join step reads: do you live, work, worship or study in WA? If so you are eligible. The offer is for new WSECU members. The $500 page is marketed at people moving to the Greater Seattle area and lists the five Seattle-area branches, but it states no Seattle-only requirement and the eligibility step it links to is the plain statewide WA test, so we have not narrowed it below WA. The 24-month closed-account exclusion we used to store here is NOT on this offer's terms; it belongs to WSECU's separate $300 version of the same account.

KeyBankBusiness savingsWashington localDeposit onlyMedium
$500$5,000 deposit/hold$5/month$5,000 to deposit and leave

Targeted: KeyBank's terms say you must have received a personalized $500 Business Banking offer letter from them, and you open by appointment with a banker rather than online. Schedule that appointment by December 18, 2026. Make the $25 minimum opening deposit and get to $5,000 or more within 30 days, then keep a minimum daily balance of $5,000 or more for the first 90 days; if the balance dips below $5,000 even once in that window you lose the bonus. The $500 is paid within 60 days of meeting the requirements. You cannot have held a KeyBank business checking or savings account in the past 12 months, and the branch network covers AK, CO, CT, ID, IN, MA, ME, MI, NY, OH, OR, PA, UT, VT and WA. Open Basic Business Checking, which is $5 a month waived at a $1,000 average ledger balance so the $5,000 hold covers it; do not open Key Business Reward Checking, which is $25 a month and needs $7,500 to waive.

Consolidated Community Credit UnionCheckingWashington localDirect depositMembershipHardExpiry unverified
$400Direct deposit + activityNo monthly feeMembership depends on your employer, county or school

Membership is county-based and crosses the state line. You must live, work, worship, own a business or go to school in one of these counties: Clackamas, Columbia, Hood River, Multnomah, Washington or Yamhill in Oregon, or Clark or Skamania in Washington. WASHINGTON IS ONLY CLARK AND SKAMANIA COUNTIES (the Vancouver area) — the rest of Washington cannot join. Referral from an existing member required. A new member is defined as someone who has NEVER been an owner or signer on a CCCU checking account, savings account or loan, so this is once per lifetime. The person referring you cannot be in your household, and CCCU employees and their friends and family are excluded. You must be 18 or older. If you are the one referring, note the cap: a member can earn at most $500 of referral bonuses per calendar year, so five referrals is the ceiling. CCCU can modify or cancel the programme without notice, though a cancellation does not affect accounts already opened and still working through the requirements.

HSBCCheckingNationwideDeposit onlyHard
$3,000See terms for requirements$50/month$50,000 of your own money

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.

ChaseBusiness checkingNationwideHard
$1,500Debit-card activity$15/month$100,000 of your own money

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.

U.S. BankBusiness checkingNationwideHard
$1,200Debit-card activity$30/month$25,000 of your own money

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.

PNC BankBusiness savingsNationwideDeposit onlyHard
$1,000$30,000 deposit/hold$50/month$30,000 of your own money

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.

iTHINK Financial Credit Union
$125 bonus$1,000 DDEligibility not verifiedHardMembership depends on your employer, county or school
iTHINK Financial Credit Union serves named counties in Florida and Georgia, and the app now checks which county you are in before offering this. The credit union advertises up to $500, and it is worth knowing what that number contains: $50 for opening checking, $75 for the direct deposit, then an average daily balance award of $100 at $1,500, $225 at $10,000 or $275 at $20,000, plus a $100 value bonus on a separate credit card. The balance awards are alternatives to one another, not additive, and the page does not say whether they stack on top of the $125 or replace part of it. This record tracks the $125 you can earn without holding a balance or taking a second product. New memberships only, one per membership.
