Can I get a debit card for my child on my account?
While many debit cards are only available for teens 13 or older, many kid-focused debit cards are available to kids as young as six years old. No matter what the age limit is for the child debit card, in the U.S., a child under age 18 must have a parent or guardian on the account who is (at least) 18 years old.

Can a 10 year old get a debit card?
Though rules vary by financial institution, some don’t allow minors to have debit cards under their own name before the age of 16. Others choose to offer them to kids who are 13 or younger. But even if you can get one from your current bank, you don’t want to just hand your child a debit card.
