Wells Fargo $125 Checking Bonus for Teens

WELLS FARGO CHECKING BONUS

The Offer: $125 bonus for opening a new Wells Fargo Clear Access Banking account and completing requirements. This account allows teenagers 13 to 16 years old to open with a parent co-signer. Offer expires April 16, 2025. Note: Adults can also open this account, but not ideal since the regular “Everyday Checking” account currently offers a $325 bonus.

Eligibility: 

  • Nationwide.
  • Must be 13 years old or older. Customers 13 to 16 years old must have an adult co-owner.
  • Not eligible if you are a primary owner of a Wells Fargo consumer checking account, or have received a bonus for opening a Wells Fargo consumer checking account within the past 12 months.
  • Not available for Wells Fargo employees.
 

Step 1: Teenagers 13-16 years old must open in branch with an adult co-signer. Receive an emailed promo code by registering the email on the promotional offer page and selecting “Open in Branch”. Provide the promo code to the banker during account opening. Minimum opening deposit of $25.

 

Step 2: Within 60 calendar days of account opening, make 10 or more qualifying posted transactions. Qualifying transactions include:

  • Send and receive money with Zelle.
  • Deposit checks in the Wells Fargo Mobile app.
  • Pay bills with Wells Fargo bill pay.
  • Debit card and digital wallet purchases.

Step 3: Once the 60-day qualification period has elapsed, a $125 bonus will be deposited to the new account within 30 calendar days.
