Q: Is there any way to create an apple id for a minor child without a credit card
I only have debit cards. I have three VISA debit cards with CVVs but they are all linked to bank accounts. I don't have credit cards because I don't want the debt or interest rates associated with them. I have several apple devices at my house for myself and my son. We cut the cord on cable a while ago and only use apple TV boxes. With the TVs, iPads, iPhones, iMac, and Macbook Air all needing an apple id, we have far exceeded my five device limit. I feel as if I am being punished for my devotion to apple and it's products since I can't use half of them with my apple id and cannot create one for my son because of my fiscal responsibility. There must be a way around this. I'm not going to sign up for a credit card for the sole purpose of getting my son an apple id. Any suggestions?
