Student Checking that Builds Good Habits
Our PACU Student Checking account is an all-digital, fee-free account with free perks designed to protect, empower and reward your teen (and maybe ease a few of your worries along the way). These perks are real-life benefits.
Featured highlights of benefits are as follows:
Identity Monitoring and Identity Theft Reimbursement Coverage1,2
Your teen’s information is scanned monthly across 1,000+ databases, tracking everything from postal to cell phone records. If anything seems off, you’ll both be alerted.
If identity theft occurs, a dedicated case manager helps handle the mess, including reimbursement up to $10,000 for covered expenses like lost wages or reissued documents.
Debit Advantage® Buyer’s Protection2
Covers purchases made with your teen’s debit card for up to 90 days against breakage, theft or fire. Extended warranty protection is included.
Parental Guidance Built In: Debit cards are issued at your discretion. You decide if your child is ready to handle this responsibility. No one knows your child’s maturity level better than you.
Roadside Assistance Reimbursement2
Flat tire? Dead battery? Your teen’s covered up to $80 per occurrence, two a year, so help is just a tap away.
Travel and Leisure Discounts1
From museums and movie tickets to restaurants and theme parks, your teen gets access to local and national deals that help his/her dollars go further.
Shopping RewardsTM 1
A custom online portal rewards your teens with cash back when they shop at thousands of top retailers. Who doesn’t like cash back?
