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.

Hello Greenlight, 
I have been using your product for a while and I love how easy it is to help my kids manage their money. However I have found that the platform is not Big Family Friendly. We are a foster and adoptive family with more than 5 kiddos. We would love for all of our kids to be able to take advantage of Greenlight but I am finding this very difficult if not impossible. Trying to create a separate account doesn't work well because you can only register one account per device and I get errors with my bank. Please create a way for bigger families to use your product.
Thanks!

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.
