Youth Accounts

Keep it fun, keep it real, keep strengthening good habits


Being a financially savvy kid starts with learning how to save and spend. Here's where you start handling your own money and making some of your own financial decisions. That kind of independence is a big deal, and we provide the accounts to help you start. Open an account in your own name so you can start saving for what you want and monitor your savings to watch it grow.

  • It all starts with coins in a jar, and where it goes from there is all up to your child. Get them excited about saving money and show them fun ways to learn good habits through this account.
  • Open to kids up to 12 years old
  • Minimum deposit and balance of just $1
  • Earn dividends on deposits
  • Free access to Afena Federal Credit Union coin counters so kids can turn loose change into more usable cash

And that's not just because we're a credit union! You can always count on us to listen, not judge and treat you like a person, not a credit score.
