PORTLAND, Maine – Evergreen Credit Union has introduced a new rewards checking account for members ages 13-24.
The product, called “Sail Student Checking,” was created for young adults ready to navigate the world of finance, according to the $535-million credit union.
“We understand that teens and young adults have financial needs,” said Tim Verreault, Evergreen’s COO. “It begins by helping them through various money matters, starting with savings and a free, rewards-based checking account.”
Evergreen Credit Union said that with the abundance of current news about an emerging economy and student loans, it is eager to show Maine’s young adults “the ropes” when it comes to healthy money management.
“Sail is not just a free checking account option for teens and young adults,” said Verreault. “We care about their success. Good money management starts with education, and we pledge to be there by their side throughout their journey.”
