Youth Accounts
Help Your Child Learn About Money
Make saving fun and empower your child's financial future with a credit union Youth Membership! All you need to start a youth credit union membership is $5. Any child from birth through 18 qualifies as long as their parent or guardian is a Alero member.
Here are the account options we currently offer children and teens:
- Regular Share Account (Ages 0+): This is the basic account your child will have when they become a member of our credit union. |JOIN TODAY
- Traditional Checking Account (Ages 16+): Want to teach your teen how to manage paychecks from their first job? Our Traditional Checking account can help young people learn how to track their own credits and debits, all while keeping you in the loop about what they're doing with their money (a parent or guardian will need to be a co-applicant until the youth turns 18). This account includes a free debit card! |APPLY NOW*
- Specialty Share Savings Account (Ages 0+): With a specialty share account, your child can save for whatever they are dreaming of in the near and long terms. They can also name the account to match their savings goals. Plus, they'll earn interest on whatever they save. | APPLY NOW*
