All Of Your Burning Questions Answered

The age range is from 13-17.

Yes. A parent or guardian must be on the account with the teen.

Yes. Since parents are on the account, they can move money anytime they want. We would encourage kids to keep their “save it” money in their savings account and “spend it” money in the checking account. So, if parents don’t want kids to spend more than $X, they can transfer it to savings. The teen debit card also has limits to help prevent any spending issues.

Report lost or stolen debit cards immediately to 866-559-4806

We encourage the teens to load the card into Apple Pay or Google Pay so they don’t have to carry a card with them at all. We know they will be carrying their phones and won’t lose those. If they lose a debit card, we can shut it down and sometimes recover funds. We encourage your teen to call us if they lose their debit card. Card replacement fees apply.

Lost Debit Card Process: We will deactivate your debit card. The next business day, we will need to speak to you to verify recent transactions. You can visit your nearest RadiFi branch to have a new debit card issued or upon your request, we can mail a new debit card to you that you would receive within 7-10 business days.

Yes! Alerts can be set up to go to both the teen AND the parent. We are happy to you set up any alerts!

Yes, it will. Teens will not need to come in and open a different account when they turn 18.
