Open an Everyday Checking account** with a minimum opening deposit of $25 from this offer webpage. Complete the qualifying requirements to receive your $325 bonus. This offer is for new checking customers only.

1. Open
Open a new Everyday Checking account from this offer webpage with a minimum opening deposit of $25, by May 22, 2023.

Or open a new eligible checking account at a Wells Fargo branch with a minimum opening deposit of $25 by May 22, 2023. You must provide the bonus offer code to the banker at the time of account opening.

2. Deposit
Receive a total of $1,000 or more in qualifying direct deposits to your new checking account within 90 calendar days of account opening (the qualification period).

3. Enjoy
Once the 90-day qualification period has elapsed, we will determine if you have met the offer requirements and will deposit any earned bonus into your new checking account within 30 days.


**The Wells Fargo Everyday Checking account monthly service fee is $10. Minimum opening deposit is $25.

The monthly service fee can be avoided with one of the following each fee period:
$500 minimum daily balance
$500 or more in total qualifying direct deposits
A qualifying direct deposit is an ACH (Automated Clearing House) automatic electronic deposit of your salary, pension, Social Security, or other regular income into your bank account. Confirm with your employer or the agency or company making these payments that they use the ACH network.
Transfers from one account to another, mobile deposits, or deposits made at a branch or ATM don't qualify.
Direct deposits made available early with Early Pay Day will not count towards applicable options to avoid your account's monthly service fee until the deposit posts to your account and is no longer pending (e.g., the pay date scheduled by your payor).
Primary account owner is 17-24 years old. (When the primary account owner reaches the age of 25, age can no longer be used to avoid the monthly service fee.).
Linked to a Wells Fargo Campus ATM Card or Campus Debit Card.
Eligibility is based on university and college participation in the Wells Fargo Campus Card℠ program. Ask a banker or visit wellsfargo.com/campuscard for additional details.

Important Note: "Qualifying direct deposit", a bonus offer requirement and way to avoid the monthly service fee on the Everyday Checking account will include additional qualifying electronic deposits effective April 24, 2023. For details about additional qualifying electronic deposits, please see the "Consumer Account Addenda".

Eligibility Requirements:
This offer is for new checking customers only. All Wells Fargo consumer checking accounts are eligible for this offer with the exception of checking accounts offered by Wells Fargo Private Bank.
You must use your bonus offer code at account opening when you apply for a new eligible Wells Fargo checking account.
You are not eligible for this offer if:
You are a current owner of a Wells Fargo consumer checking account
You have received a bonus for opening a Wells Fargo consumer checking account within the past 12 months
You are a Wells Fargo employee

Bonus Requirements:
Open a new Wells Fargo consumer checking account with a minimum opening deposit of $25 by May 22, 2023. All account applications are subject to approval.
Within 90 calendar days of account opening (the "qualification period"), receive a total of $1,000 or more in qualifying direct deposits to your new checking account.
A qualifying direct deposit is an ACH (Automated Clearing House) automatic electronic deposit of your salary, pension, Social Security, or other regular income into your bank account. Confirm with your employer or the agency or company making these payments that they use the ACH network.
Transfers from one account to another, mobile deposits, or deposits made at a branch or ATM don't qualify as a direct deposit.
A direct deposit made available early with Early Pay Day does not count toward the bonus requirements until it posts to your account and is no longer pending (e.g. the pay date scheduled by your payor).

Bonus Payment:
Once the 90-day qualification period has elapsed, we will determine if you have met the offer requirements, and will deposit any earned bonus into your new checking account within 30 days.
The new checking account must remain open throughout the 90-day qualification period and at the time we attempt to deposit any earned bonus payment. Please note that an account with a zero balance may be closed by us without prior notice, as further described in the Deposit Account Agreement.
You are responsible for any federal, state, or local taxes due on the bonus and we will report as income to the tax authorities if required by applicable law. Consult your tax advisor.

Additional Terms and Conditions:
Offer expires May 22, 2023. However, offer may be discontinued or changed at any time prior to the expiration date without notice.
Offer cannot be:
Paid without a valid U.S. Taxpayer Identification Number (Form W-9 for U.S. persons including a resident alien). Non-resident aliens, signing Form W-8 are not eligible for the offer.
Combined with any other consumer deposit offer (limit one bonus per customer/account).
Reproduced, purchased, sold, transferred, or traded.
The actions required to earn this bonus are separate and distinct from the options available to you to avoid any applicable monthly service fee for the checking account you opened.
Talk with a banker or see the "Consumer Account Fee and Information Schedule" and "Deposit Account Agreement" for complete checking account details, including the applicable monthly service fee and options to avoid it.

Wells Fargo is the absolute worst. Do not do business with them. They will use anyway to hurt their customers and take their money from

Said they couldn't verify my identity and I would have to come into a branch to open an account. No other bank has that issue, weird.

Do not do citizens bank. I did their last promo, satisfied all conditions, no bonus given, zero response from them when contacted.
I had trouble my 2nd time around - but I was persistent and got the bonus credited.

I got my $325 bonus in my account. I opened the account on January 26 and it shows posted in the account May 1st. I think I logged in on the 5th and it wasn't showing yet so it must have just been added.

No indeed. Banks (Ponzi schemes) are in a financial crunch and need your liquidity to survive what's to come. If I chose to save a bank , it would be a local credit union. Not the biggest fraudster in town

Stay away from it! WF "fraud prevention" department closed both my checking and savings accounts opened with current promos, and still didn't return my initial deposit on checking account.

I just completed my 90 days with 2 x $500 DD. I'm hoping that my bonus will be deposited within a couple of weeks.
I signed up for the $300 offer; not the $325 one.

I'll close the account as soon as I get the bonus. I've no intentions to keep this account.

Update 1: No bonus yet, as of 05/25.

Update 2: Received bonus on 05/26!!
Ready to close the account now 😀
