At the moment Discover has three saving bonuses:
- Discover AAII $150/$200 Savings Account Bonus with $15,000/$20,000 Deposit
- Discover AAA Savings $150/$200 Bonus with $15,000/$20,000 Deposit
- Discover Savings $150/$200 Bonus with $15,000/$20,000 Deposit (New, Exp. 10/31/17)
Readers have been successful in getting all three bonuses. You need to open each account separately using the individual promo codes. Each account does require $15,000 or $20,000 in deposits, but there is no minimum deposit length and cumulative deposits worked for one reader. Accounts need to be opened by October 31st and funded by November 15th, so you don’t have a lot of time left if you’re interested. I don’t like to hype deals like this too much, but let’s just say that they don’t come around very often. As always make sure you regularly check out the best bank bonus page for new bonuses.
Hi Josh, I am looking for the same – would like close out both of these acccounts, but don’t want any negative consequences.
Any close DPs on these 3 accounts? Been open for a month and bonus received. Withdrawing down to $0 this week. Article mentions no ETF just looking for anyone’s personal experience.
Thought I’d share a distinct datapoint – I’ve been paid on AAII and Discover but NOT AAA.
Prolly just means they’re taking some time, and we’ll all get paid by the 30th as per terms, rather than a problem with a specific acct. Will update!
I was paid out on the AAA and Discover on 11/18, but not the AAII.
Hoping it posts on the 30th! Will update as well.
my regular savings acct bonus opened on 10/31 was posted today
Same here. Looks like Discover was just a little slow to pay out on their own Discover-branded accounts. Awesome $1,200 haul (~$900 after tax) between me and my wife. Doc and Will – you guys are the best!
It’s a good reminder that this will count as taxable interest, so depending on your tax bracket you may want to hold some of the bonus aside for paying the tax on this come April 2018.

What’s best way to move all of the money out of these accounts without paying fees?
Transferred 8k and moved between accounts to meet 20k treshhold on each.
AAA/AAII met 20k treshold on 11/2 – bonus 11/20
Regular savings met 20k treshold on 11/2 – no bonus yet.
Regular disc sav didn’t post but the other two did today 11/20. I moved $4k back and forth between the accounts then transferred out immediately. Soooo awesome, thanks whomever was the DP on the cumulative tip.
Same — got $200 bonus in AAA/AAII today but not regular savings yet.
Wife deposit 20K and move fund between all 3 accounts all 3 $200 bonus posted
Me Deposit 15K and move fund around and got $200 from AII, AAA still waiting for regular Discover Saving. The 15K is first transfer to the regular
Both account open between 10/26-10/28
Bonuses posted for AAII and AAA, but nothing for regular Discover Savings account. I’ve never had a discover savings account. I deposited 5k and moved them between accounts in a single day and repeated over 4 days. Then I started letting the 5k rest in different accounts for a day. Opened on 11/2
Ditto for 2nd player wife mode. Except I only opened AAII and AAA with that one since discover wanted some interaction for the regular account.
Bonuses posted for AAII and AAA, but nothing for regular Discover Savings account. Seems to be a common theme based on a few of the comments above. I don’t believe I’ve ever had a Discover Savings account so I think I should have qualified for the bonus. Think I’ll give it a few more days and see what happens before inquiring with Discover.
