Google Wallet Launches New Feature for Kids to Securely Pay and Store Passes

Google Wallet now gives parents and guardians in the U.S., U.K., Australia, Spain and Poland a way to allow their children to access digital payments on their Android device with appropriate supervision. Rolling out over the next few weeks, kids can use Google Wallet to securely tap to pay in stores and keep supported passes like event tickets, library cards and gift cards in one convenient place.

Safety and security are core to the Google Wallet experience and this update also gives parents tools to help manage the Wallet experience for their children. A child’s payment cards can only be added with parental consent, and parents will receive an email whenever their child makes a transaction. Parents can also easily track recent purchases, remove payment cards and turn off access to passes right in Family Link.
