Can my child open a checking account or get an ATM card?
A. You must be at least 18 years old to have a checking account. While a minor may have a savings account or certificate, they will only be issued an ATM card if the adult co-owner of the account authorizes it. For more information and for the requirements and benefits of each type of checking account, go to: Checking > Checking Accounts.
