Over one-third of Canadians share a joint credit card with their partner, parent, or child, according to a recent survey conducted by Rates.ca. Among the parents who share their credit card with their children, 63% said that managing their children’s purchases is less difficult than it was two years ago.
Sharing a credit card with your child may be a beneficial learning experience, as less than half of Canadians (46%) think that children aged 18 should be independent and in charge of their own credit card, while 34% chose the age of 21, and 15% chose the age of 25. Respondent’s opinions may correlate with their own experiences and lessons regarding credit cards and credit products, as 94% of Canadians rate themselves poor when it comes to financial literacy.
