About the U22 Account
GTE Federal Credit Union, one of Tampa Bay's largest locally owned and operated financial institutions,
is committed to offering teenagers and young adults in Tampa Bay great
opportunities to help enrich their lives as well as provide a safe environment for learning and making
good money management decisions. Today more than ever, learning about finances and achieving a level of
financial independence is important for young adults. Learning the value of the dollar, being more
confident in one's monetary decisions, and educating oneself about money, well, it's all good stuff.
When you think about it, money is a top priority but not always a top-of-mind discussion in the
household. Recent surveys indicate that kids would rather learn from experience than in the classroom,
and they are aware of how money affects their everyday lives. Teenage big name brand clothing spending
is down, so it appears that young adults are also adjusting to the current economy. Moreover, today's
young adults are competing for jobs in markets teaming with over-qualified applicants, so saving could
be more important than ever.
The 12 to 22 year old is faced with a lot of unique challenges and opportunities today, that's why
GTE Federal Credit Union created the U22 youth checking account, designed for today's teen. Because it's
not just about opening a checking or savings account; it's a big step towards the future.
Open a U22 youth checking account at one of our Tampa Bay branches today, and make it a family
milestone everyone can be proud of. Or call us at 888-871-2690 x 40401. Also learn more about how GTE
Federal Credit Union is helping young adults realize their dreams within the arts by checking out our U22
Open Casting Call and Strawberry
Jam Contest.
Financial independence for the Teen. Peace of mind of the Parent.

Why choose a Credit Union instead of a Bank?
GTE Federal Credit Union is a great place to open a checking account for kids. Why, you ask? There are several significant differences:
- GTE Federal Credit Union is a not-for-profit, meaning money is returned to the members in the form of higher dividends and lower rates
- Our Board of Directors are elected, unpaid volunteers voted on by the membership, 1 vote per person regardless of how much money you have at the credit union
- Members are really owners pooling their assets to provide loans and other financial services to each other, like in It's a Wonderful Life
We're also known for our personal service and commitment to the Tampa Bay communities we serve; we really do care about our members. Want to learn more?
