National Bank The Connected Chequing Account

National Bank is offering up to $600 in cashback when you open a Connected Chequing account, with the total split across four components.

• $300 for opening the account, making 20 transactions, and setting up three automatic deposits of $100 or more
• $100 for adding an eligible credit card
• $100 for an eligible mortgage
• $100 for opening a High Interest Savings Account

You'll have a 120-day window to complete the qualifying activities, and the account needs to stay open for 12 months.

The offer runs through November 3, 2026.

The Connected Chequing account carries a monthly fee of $15.95 for clients aged 25 to 59.

Seniors 60 and over pay a reduced $10.95, while anyone 24 and under pays nothing at all.

You can also have the fee waived entirely by keeping a balance of $4,500 or more, and holding an eligible National Bank Mastercard shaves $5 off the monthly fee.

The Connected Chequing account is National Bank's mid-tier everyday plan, geared toward digital banking.

You'll get unlimited digital transactions and free unlimited Interac e-Transfers, plus mobile cheque deposit.

For cash access, the account plugs into THE EXCHANGE ATM network.

Deposits are eligible for CDIC coverage.
