Studies show that teens who have experience managing a checking account or debit account become more responsible financial decision makers as young adults. That’s the idea behind Security First Bank’s Free Green personal banking services, designed for teens ages 13 to17.  Security First Bank thinks Free Green teen banking services is the perfect way to educate teens about personal money management skills, like learning how to balance needs and wants, building a budget, setting financial goals and using credit wisely.

Teen customers and their parents can access and monitor accounts online, via mobile device, or at the branch bank.  In addition to offering personal services at the branch or over the phone, customers have the option of receiving e-mails or text messages about the status of their account.  Free Green teen banking services can be the first step in helping young people control their own finances and prepare them to make decisions about credit cards, building credit history, taking out and repaying loans, and making financial plans for the future.

Security First Bank is a Nebraska-chartered, privately-held community bank with 30 branch locations and eight insurance offices throughout Nebraska and southwest South Dakota. For more information about Security First Bank, please visit security1stbank.com.
