What kind of services can children and young people use once they have a user ID?
A 7–14-year-old child can have access to OP's restricted digital services for young people, allowing them to
- check the balance and transactions of accounts to which they have access rights on OP-mobile.
- use the OP Accessible online service to make payments from accounts to which they have access rights. A 7–14-year-old may not use the op.fi service.
- pay for online purchases from accounts to which they have access rights.
- confirm card payments for online purchases with Mobile key.
Guardians can restrict service use by controlling the access rights of an account and card. Digital services for 7–14-year-olds are more limited than those for older children, to ensure that they can practice their personal financial skills safely.
Children aged 12 and older can also be granted strong electronic identification. This allows them to use services on OP-mobile as well as MyKanta, Kela and Studyinfo (Opintopolku).
A youth aged 15 and older can be granted access to OP’s digital services for young people. A youth can
- check the balance and transactions of their own accounts on OP-mobile and the op.fi service.
- use accounts, for which they have access rights, to make payments on OP-mobile and the op.fi service.
- confirm card payments for online purchases with Mobile key.
- confirm card payments with Mobile key.
