Youth $50 Kickstart Promo 2026

Kickstart their account with $50. See disclosure 8.

Good Money Habits Start Early

Open a new account with your kiddo and watch for $50 deposited into the account after 30 days. Already have a Youth account? No worries!
Add another account, like their first Jump Start Savings, first Checking, first Certificate, or first Money Market account to an existing minor account and get $50.
Kids accounts: Accounts for children aged 0-10 | Teens accounts: Accounts for teens aged 11-17

Heads up! You must open an account using one of these links. Otherwise, you won’t get your $50.
