What happens if my child needs more money than they have in a Spend Control?

If the total of your purchase is more than the amount your child has in a specific spend control, you have three options: 

1. Set up Automatic transfer from ‘Spend Anywhere’ 

• • Money will be taken from your ‘Spend Anywhere’ account to cover the difference. You will need to enable this setting within your spend control by toggling on ‘Pull overages from spend anywhere’ 

2. Your child can request additional money in the Greenlight app 

• • Tap on the specified spend control 
  • Tap on ‘Move $’ 
  • Select an amount and tap ‘Send request’ 

3. You can move money from another spend control, savings, or giving 

• • Tap on the specified spend control 
  • Tap on ‘Move $’ 
  • Select and amount 
  • Tap on ‘From’ menu to select source
