This account is for teens ages 13–17. Introduce your teens to checking accounts and prepare them to transition to regular Checking Accounts at age 18.

To open a Teen Checking Account, teens must be at least 13 years of age, be eligible for a TelComm CU membership, and have a parent or guardian as joint owner of the account. The teen must also have a valid Social Security Number and a form of identification (Examples: State Issued government ID with photo or US Passport, Birth Certificate, School ID, Driver’s Permit).

A Debit Card option is available on Teen Checking Accounts. However, Overdraft Privilege, Bill Pay, Zelle, and checks are not allowed on minor accounts. Teens approaching age 18 must contact us to request they be transitioned to an adult checking account. Transitioning from a Teen Checking account to a regular Checking Account is not automatically done.
