Xbox game pass for PC - How to buy for a child

Hi. My name is Brilliant and I am happy to assist you today.

Here is a thread with a possible solution to a similar issue to the one you're currently faced with: https://answers.microsoft.com/thread/4ca6fc10-b527-45ab-8d16-cca715f80f8c

It states two options:
* Reaching out to support for assistance with that. https://support.xbox.com/contact-us
* Changing settings: Go to https://account.microsoft.com/family/ select your child, content restrictions, then uncheck "Needs adult approval to buy things". Be sure to recheck after you're done!

I hope this helps resolve your query.

Hello @ChrisNobbs1! I hope that you are doing well!

Thank you for reaching out to us here on the forums regarding this situation.

Your family settings may require an adult's approval before a child account can make a purchase. If you leave the Ask a parent feature on, you can continue to make sure a child doesn't make a purchase using an adult's credit card, and you can monitor the type of content they want to buy.

If you do choose to turn Ask a parent off, the child account can make purchases without an adult’s approval. If you want to turn this feature off, follow these steps:

• Sign in to your Family page with an adult Microsoft account.
  
• Find the child's name and select Content restrictions.
  
• Under the Ask a parent section, switch Needs adult approval to buy things to Off.
  
• If you leave the adult approval option On, you can approve or deny the child's purchase requests through email or on account.microsoft.com/family.
  

I hope this helps you out! wish you a lovely day!

Kind Regards

Stay safe, and happy gaming!

My understanding is that, 'ask a parent' option is not available in all regions or all accounts. So, if you don't see it, then, there is no way out.

So, one possible solution might be buy the gamepass for yourself, and use the "family share" option.

If i understand the problem, you want to buy them both an Xbox Game Pass subscription to play on their respective PC's ? Buy an Xbox Game Pass PC sub for each or a Ultimate Game Pass. Log their account on Xbox beta app on PC and buy them the correct sub.
