Trying to setup contactless for a 13 year old

[celica88]

We all have Apple
I have Family setup as they share the iCloud storage

I’m trying to setup Apple Cash. Followed these instructions but the option doesn’t come up on mine in Settings?

Can Apple Cash be used anywhere with contactless

He was out with friends to buy food but it was contactless only, so need to look at options . Thanks

Probably a US only thing, at a guess.

The Apple Cash service is not available in the UK (assume that is where you are posting from?)

The instructions on that link include ‘ Make sure each device region is set to the United States.’

Doh! Should have checked

My kid says his friends have something on the phone. Anyone know what options there are?

You need Apple Pay, rather than Apple Cash

Assuming he has a bank account and a card that is supported….

Starling online bank do a childrens account (6-16) that might be of use, if not I’m sure most high street banks will do so also.

Try looking at hyperjar app. It's pre-pay, designed for kids and can be used with Apple Pay.

Free account for you and for 1 kid

App controlled and money added by GPay for me - i assume the same option for apple pay
