LOUISVILLE, Ky.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Republic Bank (“Republic” or the “Bank”) has announced a new partnership with Greenlight, the award-winning money and safety app for families, giving Republic Bank checking account holders access to the Greenlight SELECT plan at no cost.

Trusted by more than six million parents and kids nationwide, Greenlight helps families teach financial responsibility through real-world money management experiences. The Greenlight SELECT plan allows parents to assign chores, automate allowance payments, send money for everyday expenses, and monitor spending through customizable controls and real-time alerts. Along with a prepaid debit card designed for kids and teens, Greenlight helps young users build healthy financial habits through savings goals and its Level Up financial literacy program, which features educational games and challenges.

Through the partnership, families who register for Greenlight through Republic Bank and link a Republic Bank account as their funding source can access the app at no cost*, representing an annual savings of over $70.

"Financial education starts long before a person's first loan application or investment account,” says Republic Bank President and Chief Executive Officer Logan Pichel. “Our partnership with Greenlight makes it easier for families to teach real-world money skills in a way that's engaging and convenient. We're excited to bring this benefit to our clients and help empower the next generation to make smart financial decisions."

The partnership reflects Republic Bank's dedication to helping clients thrive financially by expanding access to practical financial education tools and resources. Clients can conveniently enroll in Greenlight directly through the Republic Bank mobile banking app, making it easier than ever to combine everyday banking with financial education.
