Q: Apple-id without credit card
Hi there,
I have another question which concerns the payment methods in iPod Touch / iPads for children.
I recently recieved some credit card withdrawals concerning purchase in apps that my children have done...
I have now blocked the possibility to buy inside free apps, and also set the code to "directly" instead of "15 minutes". I have also deleted my credit card from my own Apple id.
But the question I have is how do you do this with your children. Are you always using your own apple id or is it possible to have one created for a child, without billing address or credit card information.
How do you secure yourself from purchases? I am still a bit nervous after last time so I want to be 100% sure that it never happens again. I have blocked itunes and appstore so they cant reach that,.
What about the gift cards? What happens when the children run out of money? Does it then automatically go over to the billing address or is that the way to at least have a maximum amount that you loose.
I would so much appreciate your assistance on this!
Thanks a lot in advance!
