Allow more than 5 children

Bryan Nichols

There is a limit to the number of children you can add. This is annoying for larger families. I use Greenlight specifically because I have a lot of children and I want an application to manage all of their individual money. Please increase or remove the limit.

6 children but only 5 can have access

Jessica Goldyn Dixon

I have 6 children and have been a green light customer for years. It is so frustrating that I am not able to have all my children on one account. Being told to purchase and have a whole seperate account to manage the one other child is discrimination against a large family. And frankly disappointing. It is my biggest downside to green light that I can’t have all of my own children on one account with no word from Greenlight that they ever intend to help me on this. I get that you are trying to keep people from having multiple families kids on one account. But there has to be a way to verify or allow someone to have all their children on one account. Thanks for you help in this matter.

Father of six here. Love Greenlight but the 5-kid limit hurts. A second account is, in addition to doubling the price, annoying to shuffle between (2 parent wallets, notifications based on logged in account, etc).

Would be great to have a prorated (6th kid is 1/5th of the price increase, for example) ability to increase, though I'd hope there could be a volume discount at some point. 😀

Jackie why is this marked as "complete"? The application still does not support more than 5 children.

Hi Bryan - That was a mistake on my end. Thank you so much for the message and my apologies.

Allow more than 5 children for an additional $5. We have 12 kids and would love to include them all.

Amount of cards per account

Heather Snyder

We do foster care and the Greenlight card is perfect to give the kids in our care allowance. The only set back is we can only have 5 cards. We need more cards in order for all the kids to have their own card

It seems like this should be an easy change - I really have no idea what the hold up is here. There might be a few of us in this category but it's a big deal for those kids missing out.
