    It’s essential to teach good financial principles from a young age. AFFCU is here to help get the process started. We have a checking account available for teens ages 13-17. You can open one for them right now—and still keep a close eye on it with full monitoring rights. It’s the perfect way to ensure they’re ready for a debit card and the financial responsibility that comes along with it.

    • No monthly fees or minimum balance
    • Optional share overdraft transfer2
    • 24/7 access to mobile app and online banking
