How can my child send money to friends?
Revolut <18 payments are restricted to customers with a Revolut <18 account, and above the Digital Age of Consent.
Your child needs to provide their phone number and give permission to enable contact syncing to identify trusted contacts. To do this:
- Read the 'Welcome to Revolut <18' stories.
- Open the 'Payments' tab in the Revolut <18 app.
- Tap 'Enable'.
- Add their phone number and enable contacts syncing.
To send instant payments to another Revolut <18 customer, your child needs to:
- Open the 'Payments' tab.
- Tap 'New' to select a new recipient, or select an existing one in the Suggested section.
- Enter the amount, and add a note and/or GIF if you’d like.
- Tap 'Send'.
When your child sends money to someone new, the transaction will be put on hold until both you and the recipient approve it. If they send money to a previously approved recipient, it'll be automatically approved.
👉 If your child isn't above the regional Digital Age of Consent, they may not be eligible to use the feature yet.
