To keep the account active, a minimum contribution of $20 per child is required within the first 6 months of opening the account.
You have two contribution options:
One-time contributions: Make single payments whenever you’d like, perfect for special occasions or spontaneous gifts.
Recurring contributions: Set up automatic payments on a schedule that works for you, ensuring consistent growth over time.
The minimum contribution for either option is $20, excluding administrative fees.
Can friends and family contribute?
Gifting is temporarily unavailable while we update the experience to enhance security and improve the overall process.
In the meantime, friends and family can still support your child by sending funds to you directly (for example, through cash, checks, Venmo, or another trusted method). You can then make a one-time contribution from your linked bank account using those funds.
We know this isn’t as seamless as before, but it’s a secure and effective way to continue growing your child’s investment account while we work on improving the gifting experience. Thanks for your patience!
