Does Your Child Need a Checking Account?

Whether your child just has extra birthday money you’d like to save or they’re heading to college in the fall, it’s a smart move to open an account specifically for them so that they can begin to learn money management skills. For those ages 14-17, we offer a Student Checking. This free account requires an adult co-signer and allows access to the account through online or mobile banking. A lower-limit debit card is provided as well for everyday purchases and ATM access.

If your child is 18 or older, we recommend the Go Anywhere Checking Account, which offers FREE unlimited ATM access so they don’t have to worry about ATM fees when trying to access their account when away from home. The minimum balance requirement is waived for those ages 18-23 and the account comes with online and mobile banking, as well as a Visa debit card and the ability to apply for a Visa credit card which is helpful for larger purchases.
