Marcus by Goldman Sachs New Account Bonus Promotions

Marcus by Goldman Sachs is an online savings account offered by Goldman Sachs Bank USA.

You're probably familiar with the Goldman Sachs, the investment bank, and Goldman Sachs Bank USA is their more “typical” banking services. They are FDIC insured (FDIC #33124) like every other bank listed on this blog.

From time to time, they offer bonuses and for a limited time, they have one available.

The last time they had a bonus offer, it was also around this time of year, with these similar terms, and they only offered it once. So if you're interested, jump on it because it probably won't be back for the rest of the year (unless they change their minds on how they're going to run it).

Marcus by Goldman Sachs – $100 Offer

Marcus will give both new and existing customers a $100 bonus for depositing $10,000 or more into a new or existing Online Savings Account.

You just need to enroll in the offer and then, within 10 days, make the deposit. Then maintain that $10,000 amount (plus existing balance if you are using an existing account) for 90 days to get the $100.

Offer expires 2/16/2022.

How does this bonus compare?

If you are an existing Marcus customer with $10,000 sitting somewhere else, it's a great deal because you get basically 1% for 90 days – or an effective return of about 4% a year. Not bad for very little work.

If you aren't an existing customer and you've always wanted a Marcus account (and you have $10k), might as well get an extra $100 for your trouble.

If you're looking at this non-direct deposit bonus and wondering if your $10,000 might be better placed elsewhere, the answer is maybe. If you have $15,000 then you get more cash by going with the Citi Priority or Discover offer.

Citi Priority Account – $300, $700, or $1,500

Citi Priority is offering $300, $700, or $1,500 bonus when you open an account by 7/17/2022. Then, within 20 days of opening your account, deposit at least $15,000 in New-to-Citi funds and keep it there for 60 days after the 21st day. The bonus amount is based on how much you can transfer but the lowest tier starts at $15,000. Click here to learn more about this offer.

Discover Online Savings Account – $150 or $200

Discover Bank is offering a $150 or $200 bonus when you open your first Discover Online Savings Account with the promotion code WH122 and deposit at least $15,000 into the account within 30 days. You get $150 if you deposit $15,000 or more and $200 if you deposit $25,000.

Chase Total Checking® – $225

Chase Bank will give you $225 when you open a Total Checking account and set up direct deposit within 90 days. There is a $12 monthly fee that is waivable with a monthly direct deposit of just $500, so no gotchas on this deal!

A Change From Cash To Financing At Tesla : All of the Requirement You Should Know

A Tesla Model 3 or perhaps even a Tesla Model Y is likely to be on your shortlist if you’re shopping for an electric vehicle. According to various sources, many people are fed up with the soaring gas prices. And with this thing in mind, the best option is to shift from a gasoline vehicle to an electric vehicle.  Though you’ll save money on fuel and maintenance over a gas car, one thing you have to keep in mind is that these cars are not going to be a cheap choice after all. In addition, to this, the cost of paying your Tesla over the years is gonna hit like a bullet train. On the contrary, if you choose to lease them, the monthly payment will be lower, and in this way, your budget will be affected less. The final cost will, however, be higher eventually if you lease. The Tesla Finance department offers to finance their customers, but it’s important to note that Tesla is not a lender. After selecting or customizing a model of a Tesla car, you can apply for financing through the Tes...
