THE TWO-MINUTE EXPLAINER

What is a bank push?

You send money from a bank you already use to your new account. Start the transfer in the sending bank’s app.

→ACH PUSH

Push →

Open Bank A. Choose “transfer to another bank.” Send from A to B.

You start at the bank sending the money.

← Pull

Open Bank B. Choose “add money from another bank.” Bring money from A into B.

You start at the bank receiving the money.

How to send a push

  1. Open your existing bank’s app or website. Find Transfers → External accounts or “Transfer to another bank.” Names vary by bank.
  2. Add your new account using its routing and account numbers. Choose checking and link an account in your own name.
  3. Complete account verification. If it uses tiny trial deposits, those verify the link; they are not your bonus deposits.
  4. Choose From: your existing account → To: your new account. Select a standard ACH transfer and enter the required amount.
  5. Send it early enough to arrive before the deadline. Check that it has posted, and repeat if the offer needs multiple deposits or monthly deposits.
  6. Keep the required balance and account open until the bonus arrives. Track monthly fees and the date each task is due.

Why can a push trigger a bonus?

Paychecks and regular bank transfers both travel through the ACH network. Some bonus systems use the payment’s coding and sender information to decide what counts. A transfer can sometimes trigger the same system.

That is a possible explanation for successful reader reports, not a promise. A normal bank transfer is not a paycheck. Some offers exclude it; Navy Federal’s offer explicitly allows nonpayroll ACH deposits.

The simple approach: check the offer’s rules first, then look for a recent paid report from the same sending bank. A successful transfer at one bank does not prove it works at another.

Example prices, before extra fees and tax. The purchase gap varies by deal; it is not a fixed BFMR fee. The referral threshold uses processed scanned value.

  1. Sign up using our BFMR link. Stay on the referral page while creating your account.
  2. Open Payment Details, add your receiving bank and make it your default. You can save multiple banks and change the default for future payouts. Update it by 3 p.m. ET; later changes may leave the next payout going to the previous bank.
  3. Find a deal and compare the retailer’s total price with BFMR’s payout. Include any tax, shipping and insurance. Start with one small order.
  4. Reserve the exact item and quantity first. Buy it with a cashback card and use BFMR’s current address from “Shipping Addresses.”
  5. In My Tracker, save the retailer’s order number before the reservation timer ends. Add the tracking number when the order ships.
  6. BFMR receives and scans the items, then sends payment automatically. Watch for the payment email. ACH usually reaches your bank the next business day; allow up to three business days.
  7. Reach $2,500 in processed scanned value for the $100 referral bonus. It counts accepted goods, not just orders placed.
  8. Check the bank’s bonus tracker after the payout posts. Keep meeting the bank’s other tasks, balance rules and deadlines.

What could you make?

Example: a 2% purchase shortfall, a 2% cashback card and a $300 bank bonus.

Estimated profit

The 1–3% shortfall is an example, not a BFMR fee. Use your actual deal prices. Set the bank bonus to $0 unless that payment meets the offer’s rules. This example uses payout value for the scanned threshold and excludes extra fees and tax.

U.S. Bank · paid example

An April 2026 report used both BFMR payouts and Relay Business transfers toward $8,000 in deposits. The tracker completed April 14; the $450 bonus arrived April 15.

This was a combined method on an earlier offer. It does not isolate BFMR or prove every bank accepts it.

Pay your card in full. Missing, damaged or rejected items can cost more than the planned shortfall; check delivery and insurance terms before ordering.
