With Young Explorer, your child can see a limited view of the money you set aside for them through the Wise app.
You’ll need to help them get access by generating a unique QR code within your app and sharing it with them. It’s really important they don’t try to register for the app without your QR code.
Once they have access, they’ll be able to:
Log in using facial recognition or a passcode — We’ll prompt them to set this up the first time they access the app
See the money you set aside for them — They won’t get access to any other part of your account
Group permissions
The account owner (parent) will have full control over how the Young Explorer money is managed. Other members in the group (the child, and another adult if you choose to add them), will have limited access.
How permissions work:
| Permissions | Parent | Child | Another adult |
|---|---|---|---|
| Add money | ✔️ | ❌ | ✔️ |
| Remove money | ✔️ | ❌ | ❌ |
| Spend on a physical card | ❌ | ✔️ | ❌ |
| See the child's transactions | ✔️ | ✔️ | ✔️ |
| Manage group and members | ✔️ | ❌ | ❌ |
| Set spending limits | ✔️ | ❌ | ❌ |

It’s best if you're with your child when you give them access, so they can easily scan the QR code you generate from within your app.
