ING Direct is an online high yield savings account that generally has some of the highest interest rates in the country. The good news is: ING is open to everyone, and there are no minimums to open an account!
If you are looking for a place to stash your cash and earn a decent return, ING Direct is a great place to start. My wife and I both have an account with ING Direct and we have recommended these accounts to family members as well.
Free $25 sign-up bonus at ING Direct
How to get receive your $25 bonus: To receive the $25 ING bonus, you must be a new ING Direct customer and you must open the account with at least $250. Click on one of the following links and sign up for an account. It’s that easy!
If you click on a link below and receive the following message, please try another link: We’re sorry, but the referral link within the email you received has expired and is no longer valid. We recommend that you contact the sender and ask them to re-send the referral email. Or click ‘Continue’ to proceed with the application process without the account opening bonus.
If you continue to use a link that gives you the message above, you will not get the bonus! I will check back and delete the used or expired links often. If there are no links available, simply use my contact form and let me know – I will get one to you straight away!
Win-Win: You will receive $25 for signing up, and I will receive $10 for each referral used. This is a great deal for both of us. 
You can do this too! ING Direct offers a $25 bonus to all new referred customers who use the referral links to open an account with an initial deposit of $250 or more. Once you have an account, you can refer other people who will also receive the $25 for signing up, and you will get $10. Again, a win-win situation!
Checking and Savings: There are two great account options to choose from. However, you can only get the account bonus for signing up for one of these accounts. So please choose one. The good news is – once you have an account, you can easily sign up for the other one.

I really need to take advantage of this. Need to get my checkbook first — but it’s 60 miles away and I’m in 6 inches of snow. Maybe tomorrow?
Ron, this is a great bank for on-line needs. The best part is, you can refer each of your family members for their own account. If you do that, you will receive a $10 referral each time, and they will receive a $25 bonus if you fund the account with $250.
If someone doesn’t have enough to do that all at once, they can take their time and transfer the money from account to account to make sure they can get the sign up bonuses. It’s a nice deal!
Thank you!!! I have been intending to open an account with ING Direct for months, and this finally gave me the push I needed to go ahead and do it. Now I have an automatic twice monthly deposit set up and an extra $25 in the account (and maybe an extra $10 here and there for referrals). Wonderful! Thanks again!
Well, I tried to get the $25 sign up bonus with ING, but they said I couldn’t since my account was opened on 12-12-08, which is more than 30 days.
So much for that!
Sorry for that, Imani! I guess 30 days is the time frame they work with. There are some more bank bonuses and other savings that can be found here:
Good luck finding something useful!
Ok, then, Patrick….it may be helpful for others to know that…I was misled by the post in that it doesn’t specify the 30 day time frame. I am just over that by two weeks.
Thanks anyway.

How about using $25/- promotion to another savings account if I’m an ING customer already?
Hello Naresh,
You can only get one $25 referral per person.
Patrick, Thanks. I was wondering if the promotion is good for existing customers as well. I guess that is the not the case.
By the way, does ING does a hard pull to open a second savings account?
Naresh,
Not for ING Direct savings (based on what I found on the net): http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/finance/260724
But they may for an Electric Orange checking account.
Would you receive the bonus for same family members such as spousals, children, or parents at the same address? Thanks.
Yes, you can have multiple accounts at the same address and receive the bonus for each one.
