Huntington

Platinum Perks Checking

$600

Bring $25,000 of new money to Huntington Platinum Perks Checking, keep it open 90 days, and the bank pays $600. No direct deposit required.

checkingNo direct deposit21 states

Deposit: Deposit $25,000 or more in new money within 90 days. New money is not already on deposit at Huntington, except maturing personal CDs.
Direct deposit: Direct deposit is not required. This tier is a new-money deposit.
Keep open: At least 90 days.
Bonus posts: Within 14 days after you meet the requirements.
Expires: Apply by January 15, 2027.
Monthly fee: $25, or $0 with a $25,000 total relationship balance. Keep a total relationship balance of at least $25,000 in eligible deposits and certain investments. Otherwise $25 a month.

Effective value

$525

Minimum-path estimate: $600 minus three $25 fees, because the bonus requires the $25,000 deposit but does not say you must leave it there. Leave the $25,000 in the relationship and the fee waiver applies, so the bonus is worth $600.

Truist

Truist One or Marquee Checking

$500

Truist pays $500 on new One or Marquee Checking after $2,000 in direct deposits and 20 debit purchases within 120 days.

checkingDirect deposit17 states

Deposit: Truist One opens with $50. Marquee opens with $100. The offer works on either.
Direct deposit: At least two qualifying ACH direct deposits, each greater than $5, totaling $2,000 or more within 120 days.
Keep open: Not stated as a fixed number of days. The bonus is forfeited if the account is at $0 or negative, restricted, or closed when Truist tries to pay it.
Bonus posts: Within 10 business days after you meet the requirements.
Expires: Open from July 14, 2026 through February 2, 2027.
Monthly fee: Truist One is $12 or $0. Marquee is $35 or $0. The $500 is easier to keep on Truist One. Truist One: $500 or more in qualifying direct deposits per statement cycle, a $500 combined ledger balance, a related Truist credit card, mortgage, or consumer loan, a linked small-business checking account, student status, or a primary client under 25 or 62 and older. Marquee: $250,000 combined balance or a Truist Wealth relationship.

Effective value

$500

On Truist One, spreading the required $2,000 of direct deposits so each statement cycle gets $500 meets a published fee waiver. The $500 bonus is then not reduced by the $12 fee. Marquee's $35 fee is much harder to waive and is not the path used for this number.
