  1. Passkey for Purchases Only


    Hi Guys,

    I'm after a solution that allows my kids to use my xbox account but does not allow them to make purchases.

    The only help I found so far was a passkey but when that's enabled they need the passkey to login and use the xbox...so defeats the purpose of having the passkey in the first place.

    Is there a way of doing this without having separate accounts for each of my kids?

    :)

    Kinect auto log in still asks for passkey

    Hey T SAW DC,

    Unfortunately biometrical data is not enough, you will need to type in the passkey to sign in.

    If you're about family members making unauthorized purchases I would recommend removing the sign in passkey and making a passkey only for making purchases.

    Unfortunately there isn't. at least no that I know of.

    You can create accounts for each of your children and you will have full control over content that they can consume on the console. You can also put time limits and content restrictions to whatever level you feel is appropriate for your children. They will
    also be able to play any games that you have purchased so long as the console is set as your Home console. You can also restrict things like how public their profiles are, whether they can accept friend requests etc etc.

    When your children reach 18, they can then promote their accounts to their own adult accounts and will take all of their achievements and game saves with them.
