APG Federal Credit Union is offering a sweet $350 bonus for opening a new checking account! The deal is back and valid until August 31, 2025, giving you plenty of time to jump on it. To snag the bonus, you'll need to live, work, worship, attend school, or volunteer in Harford or Cecil County, or certain areas in Middle River, Maryland. You also need to set up recurring monthly direct deposits totaling at least $500 and maintain online banking and statements.

Why should you care? Well, a free $350 is nothing to sneeze at! It's an easy way to boost your travel fund or cover some vacation expenses. The account itself is free with no monthly fees, making it a no-brainer if you qualify geographically. Just make sure you keep the account open for at least 90 days after getting the bonus to avoid any early termination fees, and remember that you'll need to pay taxes on the bonus as it's considered income. If you're in the area, this is a simple way to earn some extra travel cash.

Why This Matters for Your Strategy

News in the points-and-miles world moves fast, and promotional changes often have a short window. If this announcement affects a card or program you hold, log into your awardtrail dashboard to check your current benefit usage, bonus progress, and whether a transfer or redemption makes sense right now — before terms change.

As a general rule: transfer points only when you have a specific redemption in mind — transfers are almost always one-way and non-reversible. If you're unsure of the value, check our redemption guides before acting.
