You will not be eligible for the offer if you or any signer on the new account has an existing PNC Bank consumer checking account, or have closed an account within the past 12 months, or if you have been a primary signer on a consumer checking account that has received a PNC promotional premium in the past 24 months. If multiple accounts are opened with the same signers, only one account will be eligible for the premium. Trust, Estate, and other specialty titled accounts are excluded from this offer.
You may earn a $400 reward if you open a new Virtual Wallet with Performance Select or a $100 reward if you open a new Virtual Wallet and meet all qualifying conditions. After you open a checking product, you must remain in that product to receive the corresponding reward; changing your checking product after account opening could result in your offer eligibility, terms, and corresponding reward amount changing.
Offer is valid 1/6/2026 through 2/26/2026 and may be extended, modified, or discontinued at any time and may vary by market. PNC Bank may have other checking offers with different terms.
To receive the reward:
1) Open a new, eligible checking product in a physical PNC location. 2) Set up and receive a qualifying direct deposit(s) within the first 60 days.
