Youth Accounts

The best time to pick up any good habit is when you're young. That goes for financial responsibility, too. We're pleased to jump-start the learning process with savings and checking accounts and other services geared to kids, teens, and young adults.   

Age 12 and Under

Introduce your child to the benefits of saving and then build from there.  

• Parents or guardians can open a Prime Share account in their child's name.
• To earn even higher dividends, open a Share Certificate in your child's name, too.
• As time goes on, teach them how to save for things they need or want with our “You Name It” accounts. They'll see that each deposit gets them closer to that new bike, tech gadget, or concert ticket.
• Parents or guardians may purchase VISA gift cards at a Tower branch to give to their child for a field trip, summer camp, or other purposes.

Teens

Guide your teenager toward greater independence with more advanced money management skills.
