Checklist
How to complete it cleanly
3 steps
1
At opening
Open the checking account
Fund it with at least $25,000 and save a copy of the offer terms before you begin.
2
Keep account open for 60 days
Open a new U.S. Bank Platinum Business Checking account with promo code Q2PRO26 by June 30, 2026.
Deposit at least $25,000 in new money within 30 days and maintain at least that balance through day 60.
Complete 6 qualifying transactions within 60 days of opening.
During qualification window
Complete the activity requirement
Complete 6 qualifying transactions within 60 days of opening.
3
Through day 60
Keep the account open until the bonus is safe
Plan on about 60 days before you consider the offer done.
Good Fit If
Who should actually do this
You want a bonus path that does not depend on changing direct deposit.
You can keep $25,000 parked without stressing your working cash.
You can keep another checking account open for about 60 days without needing a quick exit.
Think Twice If
Where this can get annoying
Tying up $25,000 in fresh funds feels too expensive for the payout.
Missing the fee waiver would eat about $30 of the modeled value.
You want a near-hands-off offer with only one step to track.
Watch For
Failure points before you start
Opening or funding requires at least $25,000, which reduces flexibility while the bonus is open.
Do not treat the account as finished until roughly day 60; early closure can wipe out the payout.
Estimated net value already assumes about $30 in fees, so missed waivers can shrink real value further.
U.S. Bank's current Business Essentials disclosures show promo code Q2PRO26 and a bonus window through June 30, 2026. Platinum Business Checking currently carries a $30 monthly maintenance fee that can be waived with the same $25,000 average balance required for the bonus.
