Installing Kit on your child’s device

Having kids access their Kit account on their iPad, tablet or phone is a great way to encourage independent money management. 

Before you install the Kit app

  • Ensure that the device is registered to Australia.
  • Ensure that the device is supported. Kit supports devices running iOS 14.5+ and Android 9+.
  • Your child’s device will need to be password protected – this is a security requirement of Kit. 

To install the app

  1. Download the Kit app onto their phone or tablet.
  2. Tap ‘Log in’.
  3. Enter your email address and password.
  4. On the ‘Who’s there’ screen, the child can select their profile.
  5. The child can enter their profile by entering their 4-digit Access Code. 

Note: The app will ask you to log in again approximately once every 6 months. 

 

Can my child access my Boss profile or their siblings’ profiles? 

While they can see the account avatars on the ‘Who’s there?’ screen, profiles are protected by the Boss Code or Access Codes. 

Children are unable to view each other's accounts, unless they share their Access Code, or they remain logged into their profile on a shared device.
