Unit Bank Accounts
Scouting units chartered by our council (Capitol Area Council, Boy Scouts of America, in Austin/Central Texas) need an official letter to create a new bank account using our council’s tax ID number (EIN).
Once we have the letter, where should we go to create a unit account?
A+ Federal Credit Union has partnered with our council since 2010 and provided program and financial support for Scouting here in Central Texas. Thrifty Scouting units can earn an extra $50 and new account fee waivers to get started by taking advantage of A+FCU’s special unit account offer (they even offer similar incentives for Scouting families). The credit union has several locations across Bastrop, Hays, Travis, and Williamson Counties.

Note: there is no requirement to use A+FCU for your unit account.
How do we get a letter to open a unit account?
