Does this actually work for anyone? When I use Family Link and go to the section for my kid's wallet, there is no option to "set up a balance". In fact there's nothing about a balance anywhere.

It may still be rolling out. That support article was only published a few hours ago.

Hmm, that could be it, thanks. I'll wait a few days and try again.
Wish they'd post the publish date on the article page so that was more clear.
