I have enabled family sharing and I’m the account organizer. When I enabled Apple Pay on my 13 year old teenager’s iPhone, I am able to send money to her Apple Pay. But…. When she tries to use Apple Pay at stores the transaction is declined while she has ample funds in Apple Pay. Any thoughts?
Hi Miketrixtunes

Re: Child's Apple Pay declined at stores
Wondering if the particular stores have limits on purchases :
eg: only cash for under $5 or under $10 purchases.
and
whether purchases over $10 have been made / accepted using Apple Pay
Also: some stores may not be set-up to use Apple Pay:
Your teenager may need to look for the correct symbol(s) displayed in stores
Learn where to use Apple Pay - Apple Support
And: To ensure your teenager's device is compatible with Apple Pay:
Devices compatible with Apple Pay – Apple Support
Else:
If Apple Pay is really not working:
You may want to use online chat, phone, or eMail etc. to Apple Pay Support:
There is a "Get Support" link at the bottom of their website (link below).
Apple Pay - Official Apple Support
All the best :-)
PS:
If the teenager's favourite store(s) displays the correct symbols,
but is not set-up to receive Apple Pay:
There's a feedback form available to let Apple Pay know
Child’s Apple Pay declined at stores
