Children’s financial needs are changing rapidly. Nowadays, they pay for their school lunch with their debit card, make online purchases and check their balance in the ABN AMRO app. It’s easy to enable or disable these options in your own ABN AMRO app and on Internet Banking. You can also receive notifications about your child’s current account activity if you’d like.
You can decide for your child whether or not to display the youth account on Internet Banking or in the ABN AMRO app.
