Let's Make Saving Fun!
At NuVista, we’ve thoughtfully designed our youth and teen programs to make saving fun, engaging, and goal-oriented. Whether they’re working toward something big or simply learning the habit of setting money aside, our accounts help turn goals into milestones they can see. With Learn & Earn incentives built in, kids stay motivated — growing their knowledge while watching their balances grow, too. Teaching kids about saving early sets the stage for lifelong financial confidence.
Meet Larry the Lynx!
If you’ve got a kiddo ages 1–11, they’re going to love the Lynx Kids Club! At NuVista, saving becomes an adventure with Larry the Lynx — our fun, furry mascot and ultimate savings cheerleader. When kids make deposits into their Youth Share Account, they earn tokens they can trade for cool prizes. Along the way they collect goodies like a Larry Paw Bank and key chain, celebrate milestones, and watch their savings grow with each “save” they make. It’s all about making saving exciting, rewarding, and something kids look forward to!
