Teen Account FAQs
-
DO YOU HAVE SAVINGS ACCOUNTS FOR TEENS?
Yes! We love helping young people learn about money management and saving for the future. Our Varsity Teen Savings account pairs well with this checking account, and you can learn more about it here.
-
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO RECEIVE MY DEBIT CARD AFTER OPENING A VARSITY CHECKING ACCOUNT?
Once you open the Varsity Teen Checking account, we can instantly issue you a card at any branch with a lobby. If you open an account online, you should receive it by USPS within 3-5 business days. If you open in-branch, we have instant-issue available at all lobby locations.
-
DOES OVERDRAFT PROTECTION COME WITH THIS CHECKING ACCOUNT?
Yes. Members can opt into overdraft protection on their checking accounts. With the overdraft protection on a Varsity Teen Checking account, we’ll transfer funds from the teen or primary member’s savings account to cover checking charges if needed. For repeated issues, consider a pre-paid gift card until the teen is better at budgeting.
-
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE OPEN THIS ACCOUNT AND MY TEEN TURNS 18?
Before the account holder turns 18, we’ll mail a letter explaining the options for converting it into another account type. If your teen doesn’t request any specific action, we’ll automatically transition it into a Basic Checking account.
Note: Teen can sign up for eStatements before turning 21 to avoid a $5.00 monthly fee with Basic Checking.
