Capital One 360 PERFORMANCE SAVINGS
Earn up to a $1,000 bonus. Open with promo code SPRING23 by 5/10/2023.

Here's the full scoop on how to earn your bonus:
  1. Open a 360 Performance Savings account between 12:00 a.m. ET on March 22, 2023, and 11:59 p.m. ET on May 10, 2023. When you open your account, ensure the promo code SPRING23 is entered in the Promo Code box.
  2. Deposit a total of $10,000 or more of new money within the first 15 days of account opening. You will earn a bonus once you've maintained the Deposit Amount of $10,000 or more for 90 days. The amount of your bonus will be determined as follows:
    • $100 bonus – The new money deposited from an external bank during the Initial Funding Period was between $10,000-$49,999.99, and you maintained that Deposit Amount for 90 days following the Initial Funding Period.
    • $500 bonus – The new money deposited from an external bank during the Initial Funding Period was between $50,000-$99,999.99, and you maintained that Deposit Amount for 90 days following the Initial Funding Period.
    • $1,000 bonus – The new money deposited from an external bank during the Initial Funding Period was more than $100,000, and you maintained that Deposit Amount for 90 days following the Initial Funding Period.
  3. Capital One will deposit the bonus into your account within 60 days after you have completed all the requirements above, including fulfilling the 90-day holding period.

Quote from TurtlePerson2 :
I'm not including compounding interest here, but I think the conclusions are going to be more-or-less the same for everyone:
If you deposit $100,000, you'll earn roughly $838 from your money in 90 days from the interest. The $1000 bonus would bring that up to $1838. Earning $1838 on $100,000 in 90 days is an annualized rate of return (again, no compounding here) of ~7.5% for those 90 days.

That's a pretty good deal, but there's two things to remember. First is that you will pay tax on all of the $1838 as though it were ordinary income. Sometimes people mistakenly believe that these sign up bonuses aren't taxable, but they definitely will appear on a 1099-INT that will be sent to you and to the IRS. Second, you really need to move your money after 90 days for this to make sense. That's a little bit of a hassle and so I think this deal makes a lot less sense at $10k than at $100k.

Important question - it says they'll deposit the money 60 days after you meet the requirements, does this mean you actually need to keep the money there for 150 days? Or would one need to deposit $100k, keep it there for 90 days, then clean out the account and wait 60 days for the interest?

In my experience, once you have hit the time requirement, you can pull the money. Always safe to have this documented in a secure message though.

Quote from bobfrapples :
Why do you have to move the money after 90 days though? 3.4% not competitive enough?
No. 3.4% isn't a good return. Many other banks are offering >4% on savings. Some ~1 year CDs are offering 5% or more. Some T-Bills are paying 4.8%.

If you're talking about $100,000, then a 1% difference is $1000. It's worth the hassle to shuffle it around.

Got your point but didn't understand this part "I think this deal makes a lot less sense at $10k than at $100k.". Note that many banks are giving ~3.5% on savings acc currently.

I opened one of these accounts a few months ago at 3%. Will my rate be adjusted?

Heh, I've gotten $600 bonus for what amounted to about $1000 in transfers from Citizens. This is ridiculous.
Details please?

For anyone that used FALL22, how long did it take to get the bonus? I created my account on the last day and funded it immediately. Haven't gotten the bonus yet.

How are you getting 4.75? I am seeing 3.75 everywhere I look online.

I think there's hassle associated with setting up a bank account. That hassle is constant regardless of the amount of money deposited and therefore earned. I might be willing to go through an hour or two of hassle to earn a few hundred dollars extra return, but I'm not going to go through that hassle to earn $20 more than I would in another investment.

Flat out wrong. It's currently 3.75%. Also, why are you not factoring in the 1K bonus? Other SDers have already done the math for you.

Hour or two? It's about 20 to 30 mouse clicks for me. I'd say it's more in the 20 minute range.
