If you’re a resident of Florida, you have access to a fantastic bonus that can net you up to $600.
Seacoast Bank is an FDIC-insured (FDIC #131) National Bank that has been in business for nearly a hundred years. They have 90 branches and they’re all in Florida, it’s the only state in which they operate. You have to be a resident of Florida to take advantage of this offer (but you can open it online).
If you aren’t, you can always review our list of bank bonuses to find one that works for you.
The Seacoast Bank offer has two parts:
Open a new Seacoast Relationship Advantage Money Market and:
That’s a total of $600.
Normally, getting $200 to deposit $15,000 is a bad deal if the money market account pays terrible interest. Fortunately, Seacoast pays a competitive interest rate if you meet a requirement.
If you four or more monthly transactions on the linked checking account, you get 4.95% APY on the account. You get a modest interest increase based on the balance of the account:
Balance | APY Bonus |
---|---|
$0 – $49,999.99 | 0.01% APY |
$50,000 – $349,999.99 | 0.03% APY |
$350,000+ | 0.10% APY |
If you deposit the $15,000, you would get 4.96% APY on the account. It’s not the absolutely tippy top rate for a high yield savings account but it’s pretty close.
This promotional offer code is CON600 and it expires 12/31/2024.
$400 to change a direct deposit of just $1,000 is a great offer – we’re seeing these offers be closer to $200 or so. For example, BMO Bank gives you $350 for a similar amount (you need $4,000 of direct deposits for 90 days).
The money market bonus of $200 for $15,000 is competitive because you get a higher interest rate if you meet the transaction requirements for the linked checking account. Otherwise, it’s only a middling offer on its own. Since it’s just one extra step, it’s one worth doing if you have the cash lying around.
