Junior Saver’s Accounts

 

Now is the perfect time to start encouraging your children or grandchildren to save by setting up a Junior Account with 1st Class Credit Union.

 

Children aged between 0-16 years can join and have money paid directly into their account from an existing members payroll deduction or Direct Debit.

 

Whether your saving for their future, their first car, a home deposit or their 16th/18th birthday, we can help you start today.

 

To open a Junior Account please complete an application. View our Junior Account flyer here.
