Pending status stuck for child

Well, I’ll eat my hat. Turns out my daughter had her phone’s region set to Canada! Might have something to do with Tiktok and something I’ve seen mentioned in other threads. As soon as we switched that to the US I got a message saying she was ready for Apple Cash!

now you can follow these steps -

To set up Apple Cash Family you must first close any accounts that children already had. Make sure that the balance is zero then go here - Manage your Apple Cash account - Apple Support next, go here - Set up and use Apple Cash Family. (Additional support links View and limit your child or teen's Apple Cash activity, Leave Apple Cash Family, Apple Cash and person to person payments limits)

We tried signing out and then back in (which meant I had to re-attach all my bank cards), but are still seeing the "pending" on our daughter's phone for Apple Cash.

Our son's phone did not have this issue when we set his up.

Frustrating.

have everyone involved sign out of their Apple IDs and back in.
