With a Viola Family account, children can receive funds via their own prepaid card and learn to manage their own money responsibly. Children can use their prepaid card in store and online (accepting Mastercard®) but will never be able to go overdrawn because they can only ever spend what is available on their card. To help manage their money more effectively children can access their very own app and can:
Request a top up from the main account holder
Check their balance
See where they have spent their money
Lock and unlock their card if they happen to lose it
Check their PIN number
In order to access this app, the Viola Black app must be downloaded first by the parent and a child’s account needs to be registered. Once approved, a child’s prepaid card will be issued, and your child’s login details can be used to sign into their own Viola Family app.
From the Viola Black app, the parent can add up to four children’s accounts. From one dashboard, the parent can transfer money to each prepaid card.
It is the responsibility of the main account holder to ensure a child’s prepaid card is used in the correct manner.
Viola Family is a great tool for both parents and children. It provides parents complete peace of mind and full control and is a great platform to teach children how to manage their money in the modern world.
