I don't understand. For spending money one requires banking/card information. How children will get their guardian's banking details without their consent?

Have you paid for things on mobile in-app? The operating system stores your info behind a password (or biometric) because adults (non-gambling as well) also hate having to memorize 16 digits flawlessly every time they needed to make payments.

I've refused to move my payment from password to biometrics purely because I'll spend more if I don't have to type out my 22 character password. A few times I've gone to buy something and seen the password field pop up and just like.. uhh cbf.

And then saved like $30.

Some ancient internet slang you've got there.

You've made me reread my comment multiple times and I still don't know what the ancient slang is. God I'm not even 30 and I'm already being made feel old lmao

Didn't know that was ancient, I see it used a lot among... I guess other almost 30 year olds.
