The Secret to Managing your Kids Spending

The Secret to Managing your Kids Spending

Parents, do you find yourself wondering, do my children think I am their personal ATM?

If so, you’re not alone. Although we want to support our children’s needs, it can be exhausting managing their spending especially if they think you’re an endless ATM.

So why not make this easier?

With Card Secure you can protect your debit and credit cards through your mobile device by receiving alerts and defining when, where and how your payment cards are used.

Genius right?

With Card Secure there are convenient features that allow you to establish transaction controls for dollar amount limits, merchant categories, transaction types and geographical locations.

By establishing transaction controls on your child’s card you can manage their spending more effectively and in real-time.

So the next time your child wants to hit up the movies with some friends, you can set the theater category or location, and the dollar amount they are able to spend. All the while, sending you a mobile alert when the transaction was made giving you peace-of-mind.

You can also safeguard your cards by turning them “off” if they are misplaced or stolen and back “on” when you’re ready to use them again. When your cards are “off,” no with-drawls or purchases will be approved.

To get started, you will need to download the free Card Secure app from the Apple® App Store or Google® Play Store. From there you can sign-up for alerts and set limits for spending.

So take the stress out of managing your kids spending and start using Card Secure today!
