It appears to me that the link they give you brings you to the checking account page and that you can open any kind of checking account for the deal, not just the one for the $6k minimum deposit.

I'm thinking that the monthly electronic deposit could be easy for me, since my company lets me divide my paycheck among several banks, which would allow me to send a very small direct deposit to Citi.
