Editorial Policy for Bank Bonus Alerts

Last Updated: 2026

Bank Bonus Alerts is committed to providing accurate, trustworthy, and useful information about bank bonuses, savings promotions, CD rates, credit card offers, and financial products.

Editorial Independence

Our editorial content is independent from our advertising and affiliate relationships. Compensation never influences our editorial judgments. Advertisers have no input on our content, rankings, or recommendations.

How We Research Bank Bonuses

Primary Sources

We verify all information against official bank websites, SEC filings, FDIC and NCUA databases, press releases, and direct communication with bank representatives.

Verification Process

Before publishing any listing, we confirm the offer exists, document complete terms and conditions, verify eligibility requirements, note expiration dates, and evaluate overall value considering fees and opportunity costs.

Content Standards

We strive for accuracy, timeliness, completeness, and clarity in every piece of content. Financial products can be complex — we explain them in straightforward language accessible to all readers.

Corrections Policy

Minor corrections are made without notice. Substantive corrections include a correction notice. Expired offers are marked as expired rather than deleted. To report an error, contact us.

Review and Comparison Methodology

We evaluate bank bonuses based on: bonus value, ease of qualification, fee structure, account quality, availability, and time commitment.

Affiliate Disclosure

Some links are affiliate links. Affiliate relationships are fully disclosed per FTC guidelines. See our Advertising Disclosure. The presence or absence of an affiliate relationship does not affect our coverage or evaluation.
