How to trust-check this deal

1. Check the source

2. Check the friction

Check the real friction: direct deposit, spend hurdles, balance requirements, points, or fee fine print.

3. Check one alternative

Compare one credible alternative so you do not overvalue the first decent-looking offer.

Notes

  • Review current offer terms before applying.
  • Compare total value against at least one alternative option.
