<div id="readability-page-1"><article>Family Wallet provides youth with saving, goal setting, and spending capabilities under one free appCAMDEN, Maine, Dec. 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Camden National Bank today announced the launch of Family Wallet, a free youth banking platform designed to help families instill healthy financial habits in children from an early age. This secure, parent-controlled experience allows kids to earn, save, and safely spend, all under Camden National Bank’s trusted brand and integrated systems. As part of its 150th anniversary celebration, Camden National Bank is reaffirming its commitment to the next generation. For decades, the bank has invested in programs that support youth education and financial literacy. Family Wallet builds on that legacy by giving families the tools to prepare children for a lifetime of financial confidence. Children ages 5 to 17 are estimated to have over $360 billion in spending power, much of which is shifting toward debit cards and mobile apps. Family Wallet meets this trend head-on, combining the novelty of a secure, parent-controlled debit card with the convenience of a dedicated mobile app that empowers children to earn, save, set goals, and see their spending. “The financial well-being of our customers’ children is a key priority for us,” said Simon Griffiths, President and CEO at Camden National Bank. “By launching this new platform, we are empowering families to introduce healthy financial habits early in life, while giving parents confidence that their children are learning and transacting in a safe, controlled environment. This initiative reflects our commitment to innovation and education—helping the next generation build financial literacy, independence, and security from the very start.” Camden National Bank partnered with Rego Payment Architectures, Inc. (“REGO”) (OTCQB: RPMT) to deliver a turnkey solution that prioritizes child data privacy and exceeds the requirements of the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). “This launch underscores the shared commitment of REGO and Camden National Bank to children’s financial literacy,” said Peter S.
