I’ve written many bank bonuses on this website. Bank of America has to be ranked as one of the best in giving out bonuses. For those who still feel this as a hassle, I feel that you are missing out on this gravy train. Get them now since these bonuses are like an endanger species.
Complete Bank of America Bonuses List
- Bank of America’s $100 bonus – this offer is good until 2/28/10 (only four more days!) using offer code AOU261209 to get the $100 bonus. Must be new customers with a opening deposit of $500. You must keep the account open for at least thirty days and make one minimum transaction with your debit card. The MyAccess Checking has no monthly maintenance fee.
- Bank of Anerica’s $75 bonus – this offer is good until 3/31/10 with offer code CH75OL1 to get the $75 bonus. Available only for Bank of America’s credit card customers. You must fund your new account with $125 within 30 days and they will send your $75 bonus within 90 days of account opening.
*Hard credit inquiry on your first checking account. However, no additional ones are done for subsequent accounts.
**Take screen shot of the offer and offer code. They are notoriously known for forgetting to send out bonuses. Sometime, use their email to remind them or you might have to call them.
***Keep an eye out for fees on your account. It states clearly that there is no fees when account is opened online.
- $35 Bill Pay Bonus – sign up for this offer in conjunction with the $100 to stack up. Make sure to do 3 bill payments within thirty days of account opening. Good for current customers too who have never used their bill pay.
- $250 Keep the Change – One of the best bonuses I’ve personally done myself. They will match up to $250 within the first 3 months of participating KTC. You must have a savings account to get this to work. For every purchase with your debit card using your PIN, your change will go directly to the savings account. They will match it.
*Best methods to maximize KTC: Pump gas $1.01 for 253 times at a gas station usually at night for convenience, pay your cable bill online such as Time Warner $1.01 for 253 times, or pay garbage bill the same.
**Terms and Conditions let you have up to have 5 Keep The Change accounts, hence 5 x $250 = $1250 bonus. Props to you if you can do all 5 within 1 year.
- Bank of America’s $0 Equity Trades – for those with $25K or more in all asset across BoA deposit accounts, including checking, savings, and CDs, you can get free equity trades.

i tried doing the $100 checking and then trying the $35 bill pay bonus but when i tried to confirm that i would get the $35, the promotions rep told me that the small print on that offer said “Offer cannot be combined with any other offer and is limited to one incentive per customer.”
if you ask me it is a bit of a misleading promotion, but at least you can get one promotion from bofa
would like to say i read this blog all the time, real good info here
Thanks Paul. Much appreciated. I’ll do my best to update this blog more often.
With BoA KTC, it has worked so far for me without even using a pin. At the gas station this works a lot faster, especialy if you are not required to enter a zip. I also just do a transaction for as little as possible, .01 – .04 is usually where most of my transactions fall.
