Electronic credits (other than payroll, pension, or government benefits) such as person-to-person payments, self-initiated transfers between your accounts at Eastern Bank and other institutions or brokerages (including pension accounts), and payments through third parties such as PayPal or eBay do not qualify as a direct deposit. Incentive amount will vary. See the table below for details. The amount of the incentive paid will be based on the total amount of two or more qualifying direct deposits posted to your account within the first 90 calendar days of the account opening date and the type of account, as outlined in the table below:

This offer is valid for new consumer checking account customers only. New customers are primary signers on the new account who have not had a consumer checking account with Eastern Bank, or any bank merged into Eastern Bank, since May 17, 2024.

The Bank may, at its discretion, pay the incentive earlier if all the qualifying requirements have been met. Only one incentive per customer and one incentive per household as defined by a common address. Customer will receive a 1099 form for this incentive. Please consult your tax advisor regarding the tax implications of this offer. Other qualifications and restrictions may apply.
