Post Office Travel Money Card Q

[silentbrown]

Daughter's off on a school trip shortly, and as instructed I've loaded some euros on a Travel Money Card.

The card's in my name, and there's an app which (apparently) allows you to top up and view balances.

Obviously she needs to see the balance, but I'd like to be able to top it up remotely if she's running low.

Is it possible to have the app installed on two phones, both accessing the same card?

Genuine question, have you tried?

Not yet: Because if it's not possible, I need to decide if it's better that she can't see the balance, or that I can't top it up...

No idea if you can move the app/card to another phone easily, either.

I imagine very easy to install and uninstall on both devices.

I dont think that trying will cause you any issues.

If you're worried multiple installations of the app (can't see how it would be an issue), then why not install the app on her phone, then create an account on the PO web site so you can monitor and top up the card while she's away (as per the 'While you're away' FAQs): https://www.postoffice.co.uk/help-support/travel-m...

Cheers. Didn't realise I could do this, so all sorted now.

And, multiple app installs with the same card works fine.
