Protect Your Money: Get an NYC SafeStart Account
The City partnered with seven banks and four credit unions to offer the NYC SafeStart Account to all New Yorkers. The NYC SafeStart Account is a safe and affordable starter account.
NYC SafeStart Account special features avoid costly fees and help protect your money:
 | No overdraft fees |  | No monthly fees, provided minimum balances are met |  | Minimum balance requirements of $25 or even less, depending on the financial institution |  | ATM Card (no debit card) | |  |
You can open an NYC SafeStart Account at participating bank and credit union branches throughout New York City (listed below) or schedule a free one-on-one financial counseling session at one of the City's Financial Empowerment Centers to learn more about opening an NYC SafeStart Account and managing your money. Note: All branches offer services in English and Spanish. | | BRONX | BROOKLYN | MANHATTAN | QUEENS | STATEN ISLAND | BRONX LOCATIONS [back to top] | BROOKLYN LOCATIONS - Amalgamated Bank - Bedford Stuyvesant
