Finding Services and Products to Meet Her Needs
Allison is a busy high school student involved in many of her school’s clubs and councils. She also plays volleyball and loves spending time with her family and friends outside work, sports, and school.
“I needed to save money for gas and college,” said Allison. “I currently have two jobs that I manage while going to school. I have a checking and savings account at Mercer Savings Bank to help manage my money.”
Thanks to Mercer Savings Bank’s youth and student accounts, Allison was able to open accounts at an early age. Once a child can sign their name, they are welcome to have a savings account of their own, and teens as young as 14 years old can open a checking account.

Checking accounts for minors requires a parent or guardian to help keep track of savings and spending. Once you turn 18, you can have a checking account on your own.
Opening an account is easy at Mercer Savings. If you are under the age of 16, you only need to provide your Social Security number. If you are 16 or older, you’ll need a valid picture ID, including a driver’s license, state ID, or passport.
