Our Verdict

Doesn’t look like there are any requirements for this bonus other than opening the account and being one of the first 1,500. I personally hate deals that are first x,xxx only, as it’s not possible to know if you’re eligible at the time of sign up. That being said reader Jenny said they were able to confirm with Alliant before opening the account. This is better than the $100 savings bonus. Probably won’t add this to the best checking bonuses due to the first 1,500 wording.
