ING Direct is offering a $50 bonus for opening an Electric Orange Checking account after you make 3 purchases with the debit card. They offer free bill-pay and you can transfer money between banks online (from Wells Fargo etc).  I still use Wells Fargo to cash an occasional check and then transfer it to ING online. Plus, if you have a savings account with ING too, you don’t ever have to worry about keeping a low checking balance. Needless to say, I’m a huge ING fan!

Here are the details:

1. Click ‘Apply Now‘
2. Open your Electric Orange
3. Activate your Electric Orange MasterCard® Debit Card
4. Use your Electric Orange Card to make at least 3 signature-based purchases in the first 45 days after your account has been opened
5. Your $50 bonus will be automatically deposited into your Electric Orange 50 days after your account has been opened
