Connexus Credit Union is paying up to $300 to new Xtraordinary Checking customers who open an account with promo code XTRABONUS between October 26 and December 20, 2026. The bonus is $100, $200 or $300, set by your average daily balance. You also have to meet three monthly requirements for two months within 120 days of opening.

Deal Details

Connexus averages your average daily balance from the first two monthly periods in which you meet the requirements. An average of $4,999.99 or less earns $0. An average of $5,000 to $9,999.99 earns $100, $10,000 to $14,999.99 earns $200, and $15,000 or more earns $300.

Each of those two months, you need all three of these:

  • 15 debit card purchases, or $500 in net debit card purchases. ATM transactions don't count, and purchases must post by the last calendar day of the month.
  • eStatements.
  • One deposit of at least $500 by direct deposit or by ACH from a non-Connexus account. Connexus says mobile deposits and branch deposits don't qualify.

The two months must be calendar months, and the last day of each month must fall within 120 days of opening. For an account opened October 26, 2026, Connexus counts October through January as eligible months.

The offer isn't valid if you have any Connexus checking account open now, or one that closed on or after September 1, 2025. It's limited to one bonus per primary owner and is subject to income tax reporting. Connexus credits it within 10 business days of the month-end after you qualify, and the account must be open then.

How to Take Advantage

  1. Check the Connexus offer page and confirm you meet the eligibility rules, including Connexus membership.
  2. Open Xtraordinary Checking with promo code XTRABONUS by December 20, 2026.
  3. Subscribe to eStatements.
  4. Set up a monthly direct deposit or ACH transfer of at least $500 from a non-Connexus account.
  5. Make 15 debit purchases, or $500 in debit purchases, each month.
  6. Keep your balance steady, since a late-month deposit counts only for the days it sat in the account.

Why This Deal Matters

This bonus is set by your balance. Bank of America's is set by direct deposits, covered in our Bank of America checking bonus article, and our TD Bank bonus article covers another offer for new checking customers.

The Xtraordinary account also pays 4.50% APY on balances up to $25,000 when the monthly requirements are met, with no monthly maintenance fee. See the Connexus fee schedule for other fees.

Who Should Open This

This bonus suits someone who can keep $5,000 or more in the account and route a $500 deposit into it every month. If your average across the two months comes in under $5,000, the bonus is $0. Open the account by December 20, 2026.
