The Life Saver Account can be linked to a Greater Bank everyday Access Account and if their Life Saver Account balance continues to grow each month, no transaction fees are payable on the Access Account (helping keep you dollars in the bank account).
If your child is able to sign their name consistently and understand the Terms and Conditions they can open a Life Saver Account in their own right. If they are too young to sign for their account a Benefactor (like a parent, relative or family friend) can operate the account on their behalf.
