Turns out, this is one of those times when Mom won't be taking no for an answer. Here's why – we have a very special savings account at First Entertainment called First500 Savings. It pays you 5% APY* on your first $500 on deposit. Now that's a pretty sweet deal.

Mom knows it, about 13,000 of your fellow members know it, the mailman who delivers our promotional materials knows it, but apparently you don't. Hence Mom's disapproving glare, your Dad's classic look of "really?" and your sister's "I told you so" attitude. Luckily, it's easy to qualify – all you need is a First Entertainment checking account with eStatements AND either our online Billp@yer or Direct Deposit. If you don't have them yet, get them now to get all that convenience and an amazing 5% APY.*

For our younger members 17 and under, including those with Coogan accounts, all that is needed to enjoy First500 benefits is Internet access and eStatements.

Seeing as mother knows best, we suggest you look into First500 right away. Then call mom to let her know – if you're lucky, you'll get cookies too.

*APY = Annual Percentage Yield. The APY for an account balance up to $500 in a First500 account will be 5.00% APY when member has a First Entertainment Checking Account and has requested eStatements only (Member must discontinue receipt of paper statements). Member must also have either active online Billp@yer service or Direct Deposit. Active is defined as one transaction every 90 days for either service. First500 Youth Accounts will earn 5.00% APY on account balances up to $500 with Internet access and eStatement only. Balances above $500 in qualifying accounts and any balance in a non-qualifying First500 account will earn the First500 Savings Base Rate. One First500 account per Social Security Number. Rates subject to change without notice.
