This feedback helped us shape an updated version of Binance Junior that is packed with features for the whole family to enjoy: parent-supervised payments for Juniors, crypto red-packet gifting, and more ways to explore crypto as a family. Read on to learn everything about the updated Binance Junior.Crypto Payments for Everyday Spending, with Parental ControlsBinance Junior now includes a feature that lets your child make payments to supported merchants – under your supervision. To help keep Juniors protected, all adult-related merchant categories are restricted, including gambling and tobacco. Payments are disabled by default and must be enabled by a parent before a Junior can use them. This approach helps you introduce healthy money habits early, like budgeting and mindful spending, while you maintain complete oversight. And as it always will be, there are zero trading features on Binance Junior.Red Packet Gifts for Milestones and HolidaysBirthdays, holidays, and straight A’s on the report card are all worth celebrating. Now, when your child hits a new milestone, you can send them a crypto Red Packet gift. You can also choose to allow other adults, such as relatives and family friends, to send Red Packet gifts to your child’s Binance Junior account. Note that once this feature is enabled, all non-parental adults will be able to transfer crypto to your child’s Junior account.Beyond celebrations, adults can also send crypto directly to a Junior account through peer-to-peer (P2P) transfers in the Binance app. To help protect Junior accounts from abuse, P2P transfers are only supported from adult accounts to Junior accounts or from one Junior account to another. Juniors cannot send P2P transfers to non-parent adult accounts. Both Red Packets and P2P transfers are disabled by default and must be enabled by a parent. Once enabled, there is a receipt limit of up to $12,000 per year in total across both Red Packets and P2P transfers. Binance Junior accounts will not be able to receive any additional crypto transfers after the last transaction that crosses that USD 12,000 threshold. Explore Crypto, From A to ZBinance’s ABCs of Crypto is now available in the Binance Junior app in regions where local-language versions exist.
