Greenlight for Kids and Teens

Making it easier to raise financially savvy children.

At Ives Bank, we understand the importance of teaching smart money habits to our children. That's why we have teamed up with Greenlight to assist you in educating your children on money management. Greenlight is a financial education app and debit card for kids and teens, allowing parents to instantly transfer money, set up chores and allowances, establish savings goals, and more. Plus, Greenlight is complimentary for Ives Bank customers who sign up using this exclusive link and use their Ives Bank account as a funding source.

If you don't currently have a checking account with us, explore your account options here or visit any of our branch locations.
