BECU is offering new members $200 after they open a new checking and savings account. This is double the amount previously offered. In addition to meeting their normal membership requirements, you'll also need to complete 5 of more qualifying actions or a direct deposit. Previously you had the option to complete minimum balance requirements also to get the bonus.
Qualifying transactions don't necessarily need to be purchases, however. Instead, electronic checks and bill pay count too (see the fine print for the full list!).
How To Earn The Bonus
The BECU Checking and Savings Account promotion requires you to optionally, set up direct deposits, make purchases using the account's card and set up bill pay in order to earn the $200 bonus (step-by-step breakdown is listed above!).
As with any offer, don't forget to read the fine print before opening your new account. It's where the credit union will clearly state who is eligible for the deal along with any nuances you'll want to be aware of.

How to Join Boeing Employees Credit Union
Credit unions differ from banks in that they restrict membership based on a shared common bond, or the credit union’s “field of membership”.
That means in order to qualify for this bonus (or any offer from a credit union), you'll first need to meet one of BECU's membership requirements:
- Live, work, worship or attend school in Washington State, or have a family member who does.
- Live or work in one of the following Oregon counties: Benton, Clackamas, Columbia, Deschutes, Lane, Linn, Marion, Multnomah, Polk, Washington or Yamhill county.
- Live, work, worship, or attend school in one of the following Idaho counties: Benewah, Bonner, Boundary, Clearwater, Idaho, Kootenai, Latah, Lewis, Nez Perce or Shoshone county
- Be an employee, volunteer, or retired employee of BECU, or have a family member who is.
- Be an employee, volunteer, or retired employee of Boeing or its subsidiaries or affiliates, or have a family member who is.
- Be a Federal employee stationed at a Boeing company plant, or have a family member who is.
- Be an employee, volunteer, or retired employee of a credit union, or have a family member who is.
- Be associated with the University of Washington, Washington State University, NW Credit Union Association, KEXO or Sea Hawkers. (Join one of these online nationwide)
Keep in mind that nearly all credit unions have a "once a member, always a member" policy, so once you're in, the above restrictions no longer apply.
