There are no monthly fees on the complete business checking account, but you do need to fund it with a minimum of $100 initially. Account needs to be kept open and in good standing for six months to avoid any early account termination fees.

Our Verdict

The $200 bonus seems very easy to get with no direct deposit requirement. This is one of the better business checking bonuses. They also have a $200 or $300 personal checking bonus available.
