When you assign a chore does your kid just check the chore off and instantly get paid? Does this lead to conflict of you don’t see the chore done well after they are already paid?
The monthly fee is equal to what my Wireless phone company would charge for 2 insurance policies on phones, or what An identity theft policy would cost. Everything else is gravy. I don't see a downside.
Do not use this card. They lied about the daily transfer amount and locked my childs card when I sent her out for her birthday to the mall. I had to drive to the mall and give her a credit card. The GL call center hungvup on me and I was on hold for 20 min before they answered the second call. Then they wanted my wifes drivers license innorder to turn the card back on for my daughter. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere for a real debit card.
I with this was around 8-10 years ago, or if it was I wish I would have known about it! My kids are now in their 20’s but this would have been a great learning tool when they where in their early/mid teens!! Great video and explanation!
@@MrGizmo211that’s good! Either way, I’m still planning to get the debit card and my dad doesn’t really care about a debit card but I need it because since I have been doing chores a lot, I’m not gonna keep caring around money and then not having enough or losing it and I have Apple Cash so that’s good
Yes that’s great but they also need to learn how cash works also, and needs to be responsible with cash too. You can buy or do everything with a debit card sometimes cash is needed, it’s parts of life
Looking for all those adults that are thinking about opening up a checking account at the bank in their own name, that's tied to their credit score, just to give a debit card to a 10 year old. Just pay the $5 for a green light card. Trust me it's worth it!
@@mranime9145 @Mr. Anime was on the phone today with the for 5 1/2 hours talking to different people trying to retrieve money they owe me. Even asked for the President’s contact info and they lied and said they were trying to get it and they didn’t give it to me, left me on hold and never came back to the phone. Customer service is the worst. Having trouble canceling too. ANYBODY EVERYBODY if you’re thinking about getting the Greenlight card for your kid, DON’T! It’s a trap. This company garbage and needs to be reported.
Greenlight now allows others to deposit money into kid accounts directly

Can I use the Greenlight card as a direct deposit when I get a job?
Yes you can

This is prop fake,I have seen this review on so many cards,go ahead to waste your time
don't normal debit cards do all these things as well without the monthly charge?
Yes, but for children as young as 14 or under aren’t allowed to have a debit card, that is because they need a bank account.
@@AverageRedBloon .. u can also open another in your name and give it to the child 💀
The app has investment abilities unlike a debit card.

Yeah you could have been tracking and tracing the location teaching them not to be free
Considering this for daughter and wife.
Is a pin required on all purchases? (In stores) I am hoping so.
Yes it is :)
So helpful thank you! Getting one for my daughter she loves to save money
This was an ad for what it can do, not really an update…
I have a question can the kids make money online and can the kids spend online
Yes
how do grandparents send money to their GL accounts?
Can money be deposited in it like a regular checking account or from Apple Pay
Yes

Can it be used if the kids travel to Europe...
I remember seeing your old video does ur youngest use his card now?
Yes he does! He thinks he is pretty cool paying for candy with it!
Greetings
I got 2 kiddos under 15 years old with $200 a month
Do kids have their own dashboard in the app?
Yes they do on their app. My kids request money from me all the time :)!
Due to the monthly fee from greenlight, I'm now poorer than my kids.
bro it’s $5 / month….
@@michaelr1225 what do you mean there is different modes?
How safe is your information
Can I go to the atm and deposit cash??
no
yes you can!
Yes or no😭
How long does it take to come in
I think it is 5-7 days
Can you link a Venmo account to Greenlight for receiving babysitting money?
Anyone?
Nope
Does it still have a monthly subscription that you have to pay?
Yes
what are the card spending limits
No spending limits but sometimes big trans are blocked for security purposes since GL card are meant for kids
This is super helpful. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! So helpful!
Yes that’s great but they also need to learn how cash works also, and needs to be responsible with cash too. You can buy or do everything with a debit card sometimes cash is needed, it’s parts of life
can i buy robux with it
Yes you can
Wait really?
I love ur videos
Ty Alex!
Aren’t there cheaper ways to accomplish most of the same things? Avoid the subscription fees- get a Venmo debit card
This is what I thought. This card has fees that Idk if I can justify paying.

Greenlight debit card good for teaching children to manage finances...
I don’t like them. I already woke up this morning and the motherfuckers are charging me and they haven’t even sent me a card yet canceled immediately.
Greenlight is horrible their customer service is horrible don't use them. You are better off opening a custodian account
I am experiencing it right now. They are fucking TERRIBLE!!
I’m experiencing it too…I’m going in circles trying to cancel

That’s because they only act when a LAWYER talks to them
Here's the best idea...let children be children instead of slaves to parents.
Your kids will probably be working for his kids someday.
bro what😭
Teaching kids financial literacy is a bad thing now? This teaches kids money management and saving. It's not all about chores
