Debit Cards for Tweeners?
Credit cards for teens?
If your child is beyond the excitement of putting coins into the piggy bank, how about moving on to some plastic? That's right,
you might be ready for a debit card.
Debit cards are similar to credit cards in how they look and how you use them. But when you use a debit card, the money comes out of your checkbook instead of becoming a loan, such as when you use a credit card. By
learning how to be responsible with plastic now, you could be saving
yourself from poor money choices in the future.
When your teen is ready for the next step in money management, you
can co-sign on a VISA credit card from Federated
Family Credit Union.
If you think your child is ready for a debit or credit card, call Federated Family Credit Union today for more information.
First-Time Car Buyer? (ages 16+)
Federated Family offers great vehicle
rates for a first-time auto buyer. It's a great way to build

Let us help!
We offer options for financing higher education expenses that include
low, federally subsidized interest rates with deferred payment periods
to assist both students and their parents. With Stafford Loans,
repayment of principal begins six months after graduation, or
whenever the student's enrollment drops below half time. For
Federal PLUS Loans, which are parent loans for undergraduate
students, repayment begins within 60 days after the loan is fully
disbursed. Eligibility is determined by school and not based on
financial need. The student must first fill out a Free Application for
Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Once you receive your awards letter,
contact us!
