Starting a New Year and Looking To The Future

As a teenager, each new year brings you another step closer to adulthood. It’s busy and exciting, but you’ll find that you have much more to think about than your classes.

When you begin planning for your future, Launch CU is here to help. Making the move from teenager to adult will be simpler with your credit union on your side. When you turn 18, not only will you switch to the adult newsletter, Shore Lines, but you will find that Launch CU offers much more than just a savings account.

Are you thinking of getting a summer or a year-round job? Make sure you speak to your employer about direct deposit. With this free program, your paycheck is deposited directly into your Launch CU account instead of a paper check being issued to you. The need to stand in line and deposit your check is eliminated, and you don’t have to worry about it getting lost or damaged.

If you are 16 or older and do not already have a checking account, now is a great time to open one with Launch CU. With the Classic Checking account, there is no monthly fee, no per-check fee, and no minimum balance requirement.

When you are 16 or older and have a Launch CU checking account, you can request a Debit/ATM Card. The Launch CU Debit Card can be used wherever Visa is honored, and is great for everyday purchases. It is also a Launch CU ATM Card, which is honored at thousands of ATMs internationally, and can be used with absolutely NO fee at any Launch CU ATM or at any Publix Presto! ATM.

Launch CU is also here to help when you are ready to get your first credit card or buy your first car. Come talk with us when you’re ready to take these steps.

The best way to manage all your accounts and services is with Launch CU’s FREE Online Banking and FREE BillPayer. Check your balances, view transactions, see which checks have cleared, transfer money between accounts, and pay your bills, all at your own computer. If you use Online Banking, you can also sign up for Mobile Banking with Internet Access and Text Banking to obtain account information and access with your cell phone.
Launch CU has been proud to be your financial institution as you grew. Now that you are entering adulthood, Launch CU has all the tools you need to build financial strength for your future.\
