How this promotion works

Get $150 total with $200+ monthly direct deposits into Crimson. Earn a bonus when you direct deposit qualifying income into your DoorDash Crimson account. This promotion pays in two steps—you can earn up to $150 total if you direct deposit in September and October.

September — $50: During the month of September 2026, receive at least one qualifying direct deposit of $200 or more to earn a $50 bonus.

October — $100: During the month of October 2026, receive another qualifying direct deposit of $200 or more to earn a $100 bonus. You must earn the September bonus first to be eligible for this bonus.

Qualifying direct deposits must come from an employer, government benefits provider, or payroll provider by ACH. DoorDash earnings, Venmo, Cash App, tax refunds, and similar transfers do not qualify. See Terms below for full details.
