Avoiding Fees
Monthly Fees
Easiest account to keep fee free is the basic business checking account, there is no monthly fee with average monthly ledger of $500+ and eStatements.
Early Account Termination Fee
Account needs to be kept open for the bonus to post
Our Verdict
Looks like you only get 10 bill pays per month for free, so that is something to keep in mind. Previous best business checking bonus was $125, this is significantly better than that and I do think this current bonus is worth doing. I’ll be adding this to our list of the best checking account bonuses.
