Building the Next Money Smart Generation
Student Banking
You want to effectively prepare your children for financial independence. Busey can help.
Even before children can count, they already know something about money: it’s what you give the ice cream man to get a cone or put in the slot to ride the rocket ship at the grocery store. In school, children are taught math, science and history, but financial education is usually left to parents. From kindergarten to college, we want to help you instill good financial habits and put your children on the right path to handle money responsibly.
While you are here, take our education financial assessment to check your progress toward your goal of saving for college.
Help your teen build good financial practices and habits. The Teen Training Pack starts with Busey’s Foundation Checking account with an adult and minor owner - and all the features you need to manage the account together, before they’re on their own.
Busey is proud to be the BBOC (Best Bank on Campus), offering just the right mix of products and services for students in our Student Relationship Pack. International students can ease into the American banking system by working with our International Banking Coordinator.
MoneySmart Youth
Invest in your child’s future by teaching them the value of money through Busey's MoneySmart Youth. This online program teaches children ages 5 to 10 the importance of money—how it’s used, earned, saved and taxed.
Minor Savings
It's never too early to begin saving! Help children learn good financial habits by opening a custodial savings account at your local Busey branch. Start building your child's savings today with as little as $25, and help them achieve their savings goals with a monthly automatic transfer.
