Hey Award Trailblazers, here's a quick heads-up for those of you with small businesses in Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, D.C., or Virginia. Fulton Bank is offering a $225 bonus for opening a new business checking account. While this offer has been around on and off, it's back for a limited time and scheduled to end July 15th, 2026.
To snag the bonus, you need to use the promo code Q3BCK500 when you sign up and jump through a few hoops: deposit at least $5,000 within 30 days of opening the account, maintain a $5,000 balance for 60 days, and enroll in online banking within 60 days. The good news? It's a soft credit pull (meaning it won't affect your credit score), and there aren't any monthly fees to worry about.
This is worth considering if you're looking for a simple way to boost your business's bottom line. Just remember that the bonus is considered interest income, so you'll need to report it on your taxes. And since bank bonus offers can disappear quickly, don't wait too long to jump on this if you're interested!
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.
