Newtown Savings Bank is back with a sweet deal for small businesses in Connecticut, Putnam County, and Westchester County, New York! You can snag a cool $500 bonus just for opening a new Cornerstone Business Checking account and keeping a balance of $1,500 for 90 days. The offer's been extended until December 31, 2025 so you have some time to act. Here's the lowdown: You need to open the account with at least $1,500, and that balance needs to stay put for those 90 days. The bonus will hit your account by December 1st, 2025. There's a $10 monthly fee, but you can dodge it by keeping a daily balance of $1,000 - easy peasy. It's a soft pull, so opening this account won't ding your credit score, but they will check ChexSystems. Why should you care? Well, $500 is a decent chunk of change for parking some cash. If you're a small business owner in the area, this is practically free money. Just make sure you follow the rules to avoid those fees. Bank bonuses like this are essentially free money, just for opening an account and meeting some easy requirements. And remember, that bonus is considered income, so you'll need to factor it in when you file your taxes.
