Can I open an account for my child who is going to college?
It's easy to open a checking account for your child who is going to college. Simply schedule an appointment, visit a financial center or call to speak to a customer service representative. You can reach a Bank of America representative at 800.432.1000 (Mon-Fri 8 a.m.-11 p.m. or Sat-Sun 8 a.m.–8 p.m., all times ET). Outside the U.S. call 1.315.724.4022 (international collect; cell phone roaming charges may apply).
If your child has not yet left for college, please use your home address as the mailing address for the account. If your child has already left for college, consider applying for a joint account with a parent as the primary account holder. Then use your home address as the mailing address for the account; we'll be able to verify your address faster and will send all account-opening materials to your home address.
Hello
Is it possible to open a bank account for kids one 6yrs and one 13yrs ? so they can have access to allowance money by loggin in to their bank account ? any experience ?

or is it only saving account ?
Thank you so much
Looking for recommendations. my oldest has been going out places with her friends and I’d like to have a way to give her some money without handing her cash or one of my cards. Can anyone recommend a good debit card for someone under 13? EDITED TO ADD My bank doesn’t offer any accounts or cards for those under 16. I’m aware of various prepaid cards that are geared toward kids but have seen mixed reviews on most of them.
Wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to open a new account for my son who recently turned 15. Does bank of America allow for teens to have accounts? I'd like to teach him some good spending habits and how to save as he begins to look for a summer job. Thanks!
