  • Family Sharing and Apple Ids for Kids with Family Sharing, You Can Create Apple Ids for Children Under 13
    Family Sharing and Apple IDs for kids With Family Sharing, you can create Apple IDs for children under 13. Apple IDs allow them to participate in Family Sharing and use other Apple services such as iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, and Game Center. To participate in Family Sharing, all family members must have their own Apple ID. Children under 13* can’t create an Apple ID on their own. However, as a parent or legal guardian, the family organizer can provide verified parental consent for a child to have their own Apple ID, then create it on the child’s behalf. If your child already has an Apple ID, you can update their email address, date of birth, security questions, and more. When you create an Apple ID for a child, it will be added to your family group automatically. Create an Apple ID for your child Before you begin, make sure that you're using a credit card or UnionPay as your iTunes Store and App Store payment method. To comply with child online privacy protection laws, you will use the CVV, verification code sent via SMS, or security code from a valid payment method as part of providing your parental consent. If the card on file is a debit card or another payment method, you’ll be asked to provide a valid payment method before you can continue. After you create the child's Apple ID, you can change your payment method. After you add your child to your family group, they will have their own Apple ID that they can use on any Apple device.
