Promo codeWALDENWAY26 (Bank offer page)
Eligibility: New Walden Savings Bank checking customers only. You are not eligible if you have had any other checking account at the bank, open or closed, in the past 2 years. One bonus per customer. Bank employees are excluded. Walden is a local bank in New York's Hudson Valley, and opening is expected at a branch or online for NY residents.

Notes: The DoC hint of $250/$300 is outdated. The current bank page shows a single $300 bonus with either direct deposit or debit spending, so direct deposit is optional. Super NOW and 55+ Checking have no balance requirement to avoid the service charge. Advantage Checking has a $25 fee waived with a $5,000 minimum balance. The bonus cannot be combined with other offers and is reported to the IRS.
