Purchase restrictions for Xbox Live

I am a new mom to Xbox Live and my 8 year old is a whiz at it. He was able to purchase a mod for Minecraft without me knowing. Thank heavens it was only $1.00 but I want to set a block or parental code so only I can make purchases. Can someone please explain
how to do this? Thanks!

Pre-paid Vanilla Mastercards

Pre-paid Debit Cards typically do not work for recurring subscriptions, such as Xbox LIVE. You might be able to purchase MSP, but many such cards have restrictions.

 

Cant purchase this month's game with gold; Dead Space

Account restrictions won't affect 360 games

If you have a child account you need to buy it on a 360 console

Xbox one account restrictions and permissions don't apply to xbox 360 games

However parental settings must be set for xbox child accounts for purchases including Web purchases

 

are you on xbox 360 or xbox one

 

Minecraft is only available for xbox 360 at the present time

 

Took me a few minutes to find the link, but this should help you out

oh nevermind that's right minecraft is for 360

 

I would make sure not to keep your credit info on the Xbox. It's all too easy to make purchases if you have your credit card on your Xbox.

 

Does your son have a CHILD account or an ADULT account? It would be determined by the birth date you/he entered when creating his account. If he has a CHILD account then there are settings you can adjust to allow/disallow purchases/content
on XBL.
