Florida Residents: Score a Sweet $500 Checking Bonus with Community Credit Union!
Published on January 10, 2026, 9:30 PM
Heads up, Florida folks! Community Credit Union (CCU) Florida is back with a tempting offer: you can snag a **$500 bonus** just for opening a new checking account and setting up direct deposit. This deal is available to residents of Brevard, Polk, Osceola, Volusia, Orange, and Indian River counties. Here's the catch – you need to establish a direct deposit (think paycheck or government benefits) of any amount within 60 days of opening the account and use the promo code MK-CHECKING. But wait, there's more! They're also throwing in a **savings bonus of $200**. To get this, you'll need to open a new savings account with the same promo code, deposit at least $15,000 within 30 days, and maintain that balance for 90 days. The direct deposit needs to be $500 or more per month and continue for 90 days. A couple of things to keep in mind: CCU Florida might do a hard pull on your credit, so weigh that against the bonus value. Also, make sure you're not already a CCU Florida checking account holder (or haven't been in the last year). If you can swing the direct deposit and meet the other requirements, this could be an easy way to pad your travel fund!
