Rewards Bank? Banks have always used rewards for marketing. To give a toaster for opening accounts. Today, banks use rewards like iPods and gift cards to influence people to open accounts and / or pass the financial institutions. What reward / gift you would open an account?
Many banks are here to give $ 100 to start a checking account, but you have to have money automatically deposited into a savings account and you have to remain for several months or they take the $ 100 back.
I would like to open an account for the pro basketball or hockey tickets.
I like money.
It would be very difficult to stay away from Washington Mutual.
I get 3% back on my debit card purchases at the end of the year.
free checks for life.
Free ATM withdrawals (no cost to them, that the other side).
guarantees of free shopping.
One free overdraft per year.
And a lot of other things.
When I signed up for a free account at another bank years ago, I received a kit of tools. It was pretty nice, but they imposed on me by the end of the year.
I can buy what they offer something like a reward, I want to see is higher interest rate for savings accounts or perhaps something for the audit. Maybe put some time on the higher rate is paid.
Another idea I like is what Bank of America has offered, it's a great program that the transfer of your change of your use of vending machines in your savings account. They correspond to the first months.
