Hello Aprilh1228,


Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.


To confirm a few things, did the teen already attempt to verify their identity? If wrong information has been used this could lead to the account being restricted:


Identity verification for Apple Card or Apple Cash


If your Apple Cash account is restricted or locked


Do they have another Apple ID that they are using that's not part of the family? Set up Family Sharing - Apple Support


Make sure that all requirements are being met: Set up and use Apple Cash Family - Apple Support


"Requirements for the organizer and members of the family group


Set up Apple Cash for a child or teen

  1. On the family organizer's iPhone, open the Settings app.
  2. Tap [your name], then tap Family Sharing.
  3. Tap Apple Cash, then choose a child or teen.
  4. Choose Set Up Apple Cash.
  5. Follow the instructions on your screen to set up their account. You might need to verify your identity. If you see Pending, make sure your child meets the requirements."


If you need further help, contact Apple Support


Best regards.
