What are the MobilePay limits for children under 15?
Fixed limits for 7 to 14-year-olds.
Short answer
As of November 2026 a child under 15 can send at most 4,000 kr to the same person within 24 hours and 7,500 kr in person-to-person transfers over 7 days. Over 365 days the child can send and receive up to 45,000 kr in total between private users. Payments to businesses and organisations are limited to 7,500 kr over 30 days, and the MobilePay balance can hold at most 90,000 kr. The limits apply whether the child pays from the balance or with a card, and they cannot be changed.
Why
- 4,000 kr per 24 hours to one person.
- 7,500 kr per 30 days to businesses.
- Balance of up to 90,000 kr.
Details
The limits of the child's bank card also apply on top of the MobilePay limits.
Tip
Parents can move money from the child's balance back to their own bank account if needed.
What may differ
The limits can be changed by MobilePay in the future, but parents cannot raise them for one child.
Common misconception
Parents can raise their child's MobilePay limit in the app.
What actually happens
The limits for children under 15 are fixed and cannot be changed.
