Programs for Youth and Young Adults
We’re here for the whole journey.
A cualquier edad, usted y su familia pueden acudir a nosotros para recibir apoyo en relación con sus metas financieras. Es por eso por lo que estamos comprometidos no solo a brindarle ahorros, préstamos y acceso a sus cuentas, sino también a educarlo y empoderarlo en todas las etapas de la vida.
Con nuestras oportunidades de ahorro, recursos gratuitos de bienestar financiero y programas para niños y adultos, puede contar con Visions para que le ayude a mejorar su comprensión financiera y confianza en todas las etapas de su proceso.
CUENTA FIRST
Did you know you could open a Visions account for your child the day you get their Social Security number? They’d become part of the First account for members who are ages 12 and under.
Members with a First account automatically have a primary share – like all members! – and any parents/guardians who are joint on the account can open additional shares or share certificates, making these ideal for building your child’s savings and teaching them to save. We help to encourage savings, too, by providing financial education and fun incentives. Ages 12 and under can enjoy:
- Free toys each time they visit a local branch and make a $5 deposit to their savings*
- Birthday mailings they can return for opportunities to enter our monthly prize drawing
- Quarterly Saving First newsletter full of games, jokes, and stories with financial lessons
- Free online portals with resources for parents and education for children
New members can also receive welcome gifts for joining our First program – or even get a $25 bonus and the chance to win cash prizes during Youth Month! Haga clic aquí para ver detalles.
* Límite de un juguete por mes. El valor y la elección del juguete pueden variar.
CUENTA ENFOQUE
After their First account, members transition into our Focus account for ages 13-17.
Learning and practicing healthy financial habits early is essential for transitioning into adulthood with financial confidence. When given the resources and opportunity, people can develop the foundations of those habits as young as age 13. That’s where our Focus account comes in.
Featured products and services for ages 13-17 include:
- Flex Checking with no monthly fees and a complimentary Visa® debit card to start budgeting, making payments, and tracking their expenses
- Savings Milestone Contest* providing extra incentive to save money for the chance to win cash prizes
- Youth Share Certificate with a 12-month term and minimum deposit of just $25 to encourage long-term savings habits with dividends
- Quarterly Focus emails offering tips for joint owners to support their young adults on the journey to financial wellness
- Zogo gamified learning that rewards financial literacy with real world prizes like gift cards!
Throughout August, new members ages 17 and under can also qualify for our Youth Month special – including a $25 cash bonus and prize drawing! Haga clic aquí para ver detalles.
CUENTA ADELANTE
Until a member reaches age 18, most of their big financial decisions require a parent or guardian. Our Future account for ages 18-25 supports the transition toward financial independence and celebrates a major milestone for many young adults – buying their first car.
At this age, members can apply for any of our products and services without a cosigner or parent’s approval: digital banking, credit cards, personal loans, auto loans, mortgages, share certificates, and business accounts. Plus, a couple of opportunities are available exclusively for ages 18-25:
- The Budget Saver is a unique savings account for seasonal budgeting – perfect for seasonal workers and college students! Choose from two disbursement options:
3-Month – Contribute to your savings for nine months, followed by monthly automated disbursements on the first day of December, January, and February
9-Months – Contribute to your savings for the summer months, followed by monthly automated disbursements from September through May - $50 First Auto Loan Bonus**: When you get your first Auto Loan with Visions, you could enjoy a $50 cash bonus on us!
For a limited time, we’re also offering a $25 new member bonus for ages 18-25! To get this cash bonus, you simply need to be in this age range, eligible for membership, and join Visions by August 31st. Haga clic aquí para ver detalles.
