Note: some readers report not having success with the online system, so you might have to go in-branch. We’ll add this to our list of Best Bank Bonuses. Hat tip to reader SA

Update: Readers note in the comments that there seems to be an error in the online application process for now. Get the email and try again a different day to see if the online option opens up. Or go to a branch to open.

Avoiding Fees
Monthly Fees
Chase Total Business Checking com no monthly fee when you maintain a daily minimum balance of $2,000 or more. Otherwise a $15 Monthly Service Fee will apply.
Other ways to waive the fee:
- With a linked Chase Private Client account
- If you are military/veteran
- $2,000 in purchases on your Chase INK Business card
- $2,000 in deposits from Quickpay and other merchant services
Reports indicate that Chase usually waives the fee for the first couple months.
Early Account Termination Fee
Accounts need to be kept open for a minimum of six months; otherwise, the bonus will be forfeited.
Our Verdict
The standard offer is $300, and we’ve seen a $500 public offer. I don’t recall seeing anything above that (other than once a $1,000 deal for Private Clients), and this $750 deal looks like a real sweet offer. Unfortunately you’re not eligible for this bonus if you’ve received a Chase business checking bonus within the last two years, so it won’t work for everyone.
