You must open the checking and savings account at the same time and complete all requirements (including eligibility) for BOTH the checking bonus and savings bonus.
For a personal account: We will need your name, residential address, date of birth, driver's license and/or other identifying documents and, if you are opening your account online, your Social Security number. If you do not have a Social Security number, your account will need to be opened in a branch.
We may require additional information about you or any other person associated with you or with the account when or after you open it.
Direct deposit is an electronic deposit of your paycheck, pension or government benefits (such as Social Security) from your employer or the government using your Chase checking account and routing number. Visit our Direct Deposit Page for more information.
The following do not qualify as direct deposits: Depositing a check in branch or through the Chase Mobile® app; Person to Person payments (such as Zelle®); Micro-deposits (Micro-deposits are small deposits, typically less than $1, that are sent to your account to verify it is the correct account); External transfers from a bank, brokerage or investment account, tax refunds, dividends, retirement distributions, direct payments, debit card transactions, or wire transfers. Visit our Direct Deposit Page for more information.
The new money cannot be funds held by you at Chase or its affiliates. New money must be deposited within 30 days (and maintained for 90 days) into the enrolled savings account.
When do I get my bonus?
You’ll receive your bonus within 15 days* after you have completed all of the requirements listed on your offer. Note, the enrolled accounts must be open at time of payout to receive your bonus.
*Refer to your specific offer for dates and deadlines.
Your bonus is considered interest and will be reported on IRS Form 1099-INT (or Form 1042-S, if applicable). To understand the taxability of that interest, please consult your personal tax advisor or the IRS.
