Redeeming gift card on child account

Hi, just got my 10 year old a quest 3s for Xmas. I’m trying to put a gift card on his account but he doesn’t have a wallet. I assume this is because it’s a pre teen account. Is there any way I can add the gift card to his account? Cheers in advance.

    No, it's not.....like you said, child accounts(10-12) does not have any payment methods, not even gift cards.

    You can add the gift card to your account, and then gift the game he wants to his account.
