Disclosure

Receive $50 when you direct deposit your qualifying Dakota State University payroll* into a new First PREMIER Bank personal checking account. If you already have a qualifying direct deposit, you are not eligible for this offer.

The account must be in good standing, and the recipient must still be employed by DSU, at the time of the $50 bonus payout to qualify. All bonuses will be paid to the applicable account within 6 weeks of the initial recurring DSU payroll of $250 or more.

*A qualifying direct deposit is a recurring direct deposit of a DSU payroll of $250 or more per pay period electronically deposited into an eligible checking account by a Dakota State University employee. Transfers from one account to another, or deposits made at a banking location or ATM do not qualify as direct deposit.

This special offer cannot be used in conjunction with any other discounts or bonus coupons. This offer is only available to employees of Dakota State University who are employed by DSU through the period between setting up direct deposit and payment of the bonus.

All checking accounts require a $50 minimum deposit to open. The FREE+ Checking Account annual percentage yield for balances over $500 is 0.02%. Rates may change at the bank’s discretion. The $50 bonus will be shown as interest on account statements and will be reported as interest income on Form 1099-INT. Fees will reduce earnings.

**Receive a $500 discount at time of closing for purchase or refinance on a primary residence through First PREMIER Bank. Offer is valid to Dakota State University employees with a First PREMIER Bank checking account in good standing and a qualifying direct deposit of $250 or more per pay period. Transfers from one account to another, or deposits made at a banking location or ATM do not qualify as direct deposits. Discount cannot be applied to special offers, or combined with coupons, group benefit packages or PREMIER employee discounts. Not eligible on home equity lines of credit, second mortgages and other retail products. Offer valid once during a 12-month period. Some restrictions apply. Subject to change.
