Sterling Savings Bank is running a banking promotion from which you can get $101 bonus for completing required banking activities. This is a first report of banking promotion from Sterling Savings Bank here at MyCardBlog.com. It seems this $101 is easy to get for people living in West Coast where most Sterling Savings Bank branches located.

The promotion is listed on its website at www.sterlingsavingsbank.com. The promotion page can be found through this link. This promotion requires you to open a new checking account and complete 3 of 4 banking activities. The 4 banking activities are: bill pay, direct deposit, check card and online statement. If you don’t want to bother your payroll office, you can simply use bill pay, check card and online statement to qualify for the promotion.

Fine print:

To be eligible for the $101 incentive, you must enroll in three of the four following products within 90 days of account opening: Bill Pay, Online Statements, Check Card and/or Direct Deposit and meet specific usage requirements in conjunction with opening a new personal checking account.

Following is how to get the bonus:

You must meet 3 of the following 4 requirements: be enrolled in Free Bill Pay, enrolled in Online Statements, have a minimum of one (1) incoming Direct Deposit or ACH credit on your checking account within 90 days of account opening or use your Check Card a minimum of three (3) times within the first 90 days of account opening. Check Card transactions can be ATM, point-of-sale (POS) with PIN or signature based transactions. According to the usage requirements, ING direct or paypal transfer should be counted as the direct deposit.

You account will be reviewed after 3 months. The $101 will be credited to your checking account within four calendar months of account opening upon meeting usage requirements.

This $101 seems pretty easy to get. But Sterling Savings Bank only has branches at AZ, CA, CO, ID, MT, OR, NV, UT and WA.

Sterling Savings Bank has the BucksBack Platinum Edition Visa Card which offers $50 sign up bonus after first use of this credit card. With this credit card, you can get 1% cash back on all qualifying purchases without annual fee. Another feature is you can actually design the card design by uploading your own photos. It’s a cool credit card to own!
