Newest Bank of the West Promotions: Best Offers, Coupons and Bonuses June 2020
Bank of the West’s name is a little misleading. The full-service bank offers branches in 19 states, but they’re not all out west. In addition to having branches in western states such as California, Arizona, Washington and Nevada, the bank also serves Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri and Wisconsin.
If you’re searching for a new bank, it’s important to evaluate all of its products, services, fees and promotional offers. A recent GOBankingRates survey found that many Americans don’t do their research on bank promotions and end up either missing out on free cash or paying too much in fees.
Take a closer look at the latest Bank of the West promotions to find out how you can score a little extra cash:

Bank of the West’s current promotion is best for those who live in its immediate service area — especially if you want to be near a local branch.
