How do I add money to my Parent's Wallet?

Your Parent's Wallet is the digital version of your regular wallet and is where you store money you want to add to your kids' Greenlight debit cards.

You can see the balance of your Parent's Wallet by navigating to the Parent Dashboard, which is the first page you see when opening the Greenlight app.

If you have a verified funding source on file, you can add money to your Parent’s Wallet manually or set up autofunding.

Option 1 - Manually Add Money to the Parent Wallet

1. Open the Greenlight app
2. Tap “Add $”
3. Select the amount you want to add from our pre-set options or choose to manually enter the amount by tapping “Other”
4. Tap “Add” and your funds will be transferred
   • If you are loading via ACH (or bank account) you will see when the funds will be available for use. Usually funds are available instantly, but it can take 3-4 business days for them to be available.
5.  

Please note, you have the option to change funding sources here if you have multiple attached to your Parent's Wallet by tapping on the “From” menu. Your primary funding source will be automatically populated here unless you change it. 

• This can be done by accessing ‘Funding’ in your Parent Settings.

Option 2 - Parent’s Wallet Autofunding

• Navigate to your Settings by tapping the gear icon in the top right of your Parent Dashboard
• Tap  ‘Autofunding’ by clicking on the arrow to the right of it
  • If you do not have Parent's Wallet Autofunding set up, you can also navigate to Autofunding by tapping on ‘Set up autofunding’ from the Parent Dashboard.
• You will see 2 options under ‘Autofunding’
  • When account is low: Automatically add a set amount of funds each time your Parent's Wallet drops below a certain amount that you set.
  • On 1st of each month: Automatically add a set amount of funds on the 1st of each month.
