Offer Details:
  • To qualify for the $375 checking bonus, provide the offer code, open a Fifth Third Momentum Checking, or Preferred2 checking account by 9/30/2022 and make direct deposits totaling $500 or more within 90 days of account opening. The $375 checking bonus does not require any additional activities. A qualifying Direct Deposit is an Automated Clearing House (ACH) credit, which may include payroll, pension or government payments (such as Social Security). The cash bonus will be deposited into your new account within 10 business days of completing qualifying activity requirements. In order to receive the cash bonus, your checking account must be open and in good standing. Offer is not available to existing Fifth Third checking customers or to those with a Fifth Third Checking account that has been closed within the last 12 months. Bank reserves the right to limit each customer to one new account-related gift incentive per calendar year. Eligibility may be limited based on your account type and ownership role. Account must be funded within 45 days of account opening. No minimum deposit required to open a checking account. Bonus may be taxable as interest income and reported on IRS Form 1099-INT. Consult your tax advisor. UNIQUE OFFER CODE MUST BE PRESENTED AT ACCOUNT OPENING TO RECEIVE THE BONUS. See your banker for details. Not valid with any other offer.
  • Fifth Third Preferred Checking is an interest-bearing checking account and all balances earn 0.01% Annual Percentage Yield (APY) in all markets. APYs are accurate as of 6/1/2022 and may change at any time.
  • Fifth Third Momentum Banking benefits are only available with Fifth Third Momentum Checking.
  • Fifth Third Extra Time gives you longerโ€”anytime before midnight ET on the business day after your account is overdrawnโ€”to make a deposit that brings your available balance to at least $0. You must deposit enough to cover all items that caused your overdraft plus any outstanding checks, automatic payments, or pending debit card purchases that may be presented that business day. Extra Time does not apply to items that are returned unpaid.
  • Fifth Third employs a number of fraud protection measures and offers you fee-free tools, such as alerts, to help protect your account. You may also enroll in Fifth Third Identity Alert, an optional, non-FDIC insured product, subject to additional fees, provided by Fifth Third's vendor, Trilegiant.
  • Early Pay grants you access to your eligible direct deposit payments up to two days prior to the scheduled payment date. Early availability is based on the timing of the payer's payment instruction and standard fraud prevention restrictions apply.
  • Certain restrictions and fees will apply. Fees are disclosed at the time of deposit. Deposits can be made in branch or via our mobile app. Mobile deposits are subject to Digital Services User Agreement; including applicable cut-off times.
Good Deal?

Not Nationwide so YMMV

That's their Preferred Checking. Their other product, Momentum Checking, is also eligible and has no fee.
Service charges waived if you achieve a combined total balance of at least $100,000 across your deposit and investment accounts one time per month.2
Otherwise, it's $25 per month.
Just commenting on 5/3 themselves, but I had a pretty bad experience with them. The bank sent me an official bounced check that took over a month and multiple calls to CS to resolve. I stay far and away from doing biz with them again.

Did anyone signup by chance via email and not using their code? Appears the offer has been lowered to $250 bonus. I tried to open one online and it stated I must come inside so the generic online code will not work has to be the unique one sent to your email.

Anyone have an offer code they didn't use for this?
The 375 promo said valid until end of September but their website is only showing a code for 250 right now

I got the bonus immediately after the deposit. But this bank has been rife with issues. I constantly get locked out of login for no reason, got charged an expedited debit card fee when I didn't ask for it, and the app is incredibly slow and buggy. They need to fix their issues before I even consider keeping this account open
