What is an Individual Development Account (IDA)?

IDAs are special accounts available at Southern Bancorp that help income eligible individuals and families save money through a matched savings program. Eligible participants make monthly deposits to their IDA, every dollar of which is then matched up to three times to pay for a qualifying purchase – such as a home, starting a business, or paying for school.

IDAs are investments in you.

When you save $667, IDA matches $2,000, which is a 3x match!
