Chase Bank’s $200 bonus for opening a business checking account
Here is one of the better bank deals I have seen in a while. Currently Chase bank is offering customers $200.00 for starting a business checking account with them and funding it with (now here’s what makes this deal so hot!) only $500.00. Consider that an immediate 40% return on investment. How’s that for economic stimuli?
Use this Coupon Code: 3385722000048925
It’s fairly straight forward – open a qualifying Chase Business Checking account by 3/28/09 with a minimum deposit of $500 (within 30 days of account opening) and you will receive $200.

Can you open this account even if you don’t have a business?

Looks like you need to have a registered business for this deal. Good payout though if you just started a small biz

“interest bearing accounts are only available to sole proprietorships, non-profit,and government entities”
I would say that a sole proprietorship also qualifies as a business. I have had readers on my blog register for similar “business checking” deals, while being only sole proprietors or even without a business.

Yes, you can open as sole proprietor.
Looking at the details you need $5000 balance otherwise there is monthly service fee for Check Safekeeping of $16.

I opened up this account. If you open a premier checking account as well, you can waive the monthly fee. Having a business checking account will waive the premier checking account monthly fee/minimum balance requirement, and vice versa. Funny how that works! – Debbie

Regarding what Debbie said above about the premier and business checking fees cancelling each other out- I called Chase and they said you can only get one of the accounts waived and you can choose which one.
