Helpful Financial Management Tools
How Can We Help You Get Started?

Student Checking for Young Adults
Our free Student Checking account is designed specifically to help young adults build good financial habits, while providing peace of mind for parents. Our tech-friendly tools such as mobile check deposit, digital person-to-person payment and a highly rated Mobile App make transferring and managing money easy and convenient for everyone1.

The Smart Way to Build Credit
Our Starter Credit Card is a great way to introduce your young adult to building credit. Created for people new to credit, there’s no cosigner required, no deposit needed and no annual fee. The Starter Credit Card features tools to help users understand the credit basics and the importance of paying bills on time. Plus, they can get rewarded along the way — up to $40 in cash back the first year2.

Boost Credit While Building Savings
Our ScoreMore Loan offers the unique opportunity to build credit while also growing savings. Here’s how it works: on-time monthly payments are reported to the credit bureaus and added to a savings account. Once the final payment is made, the money in the savings account is paid out. On average, the ScoreMore Loan boosts credit scores by 60 points and increases savings balances by $253! That’s what we call a win-win. No credit history or cosigner needed to apply3.

See How Money Can Grow
Consider a Saver Certificate (CD) to jumpstart your young adult’s savings and demonstrate how interest can help grow money over time. Open a Saver CD with as little as $50 and see a guaranteed return over a 12-month term thanks to a fixed interest rate. Plus, enjoy the flexibility to add to it at any time through Online Banking4.
