Weighing The Pros And Cons Of Rewards Checking
Banks try to lure customers with rewards checking accounts the offer promises of bonuses for certain spending benchmarks and other behavior. A ComplexSearch post helps you sort out whether or not such accounts are the right fit for you.
Here are some features to look out for when shopping for a checking account:
*Fees. Monthly or annual costs can eat up potential gains.
*Signature requirements. Some programs only reward you if you sign for transactions rather than input your PIN at the counter.
*Minimum balance requirements. If you’re forced to keep a larger sum than you’re comfortable with in the account, it could tie up funds you could use for more lucrative purposes.
If you use a rewards checking account, how well does it pay off?
