Yes, she can get a Disney Visa with her own name (it will be the same number as yours). She can also select her favorite card design. Since I don't use the card, it is easy to see DD's charges. Also, you can set up alerts to your phone anytime the card is used. I love this feature for my younger DD! Also, I always give both DDs their own AU or employee cards to help me meet my MSR. They know what charges go on each one or they will text me to check first. Even with no MSR, they each carry at least 2 of my cards and I encourage them to use them for all of their own expenses too, however small. Then I just separate their expenses each month and pay their portion from their own checking account. It works great for us!Speaking of said 13yo- you all have me thinking again with the AU conversations. We have the Disney Visa that (thanks to all that I've learned here) no longer gets regular use. I know it's not a great card, but I love having Elsa in my wallet and I do enjoy having the Disney dollars when we visit WDW.
I'm thinking that this would be a great card for her to have as her first AU. Can I request it for her through SM or do I need to call? Will she get her own card in her own name?
I think you can apply for an AU card online.
