    Hi,

    I would like to buy some apps for my son for his phone but don't want to have my credit card registered to his account in case of any accidental purchases.

    For my daughter's ipod I can buy itunes vouchers in Tesco but I cant see if there is an equivalent for google play?

    What is the easiest way to get the apps for me?

    Thanks
    Molly

    With 3 you can use your credit to purchase apps (must be on mobile data not wifi) might be an option to pick up a 3 sim if you don't already have one.

    You can set a password on the Play Store to limit purchases.

    Add it to the account, buy the Apps then remove it or set it up whereby it asks for a password every time you make a purchase.

    He is with 3 so might buy him €10 credit and then he can buy what he wants - perfect.

    Thanks for your answers

    First glace I read that as "He is 3" :P
    Remember there's a 15 minute no questions asked refund window that he can use if he changes his mind and usually if you go over this and you contact the developer they will be more than happy to refund you.
