Student Checking FAQs

Got questions about our Absolutely Free Student Checking account? We've got all the answers right here.

Yes, teens and young adults ages 10 to 20 can open an Absolutely Free Student Checking account. Youth ages 10 to 14 must have a parent or guardian as a joint owner, while teens 15 to 20 may open the account on their own if they meet the ID requirements.

Teens and young adults ages 14-20 can open a student checking account online. However, in most cases a young adult's identity cannot be verified online and the student is asked to visit a branch with their ID to complete the account opening process and pick up a debit card. Youth 10-13 must visit a branch to open an account. 

Teens 10 to 20 years old must provide their Social Security number. A parent or guardian joint owner must provide their Social Security number and show a valid Florida driver's license, Florida ID card, or Military ID. Teens 15 to 20 opening an account on their own must provide their Social Security number and show a valid Florida driver's license, Florida ID, or Military ID. Visit our New Account Documents page for the full list of required items.

You may receive a debit card after the proper ID requirements are provided at account opening.
