That way either of you can access your accounts in case of an emergency. *Pro tip* Make sure both your names are on your shared accounts and credit card.Joint credit card - gives you each the ability to charge shared purchases easily. Joint savings account - pull any excess money into this account for your goals. Joint checking account - where you each contribute your portion of income.
