Create an account for your child

Create a Drime account for your child inside your family: e-mail code, date of birth, consent. Answer their requests and end child status later.

Updated October 19, 2026Web

As the manager or a co-manager, you can create a Drime account for a child who does not have one yet. The child joins your family right away, with every parental control on.

#Create the account

In the family console, click Invite members, then Create your child's account.
Type Your child's e-mail address.
Type the code sent to that address in Enter the code.
Drime sends a 6-digit code: ask your child to read it to you. It is valid 15 minutes. If it expired, click Send a new code.
Enter the Date of birth.
A child's account is for someone under 18.
Under Their name and password, type the child's name and choose their password.
Tick the consent box.
It confirms that you are the child's parent or legal guardian and agree to the account being created.
Click Create the account.

#After the account is created

Your child is a member of the family at once and gets a welcome e-mail.
They sign in with that address and the password you chose.
Their files stay private, to you too.
Every parental control is on. See Parental controls.
The Child badge marks their row on the Members page.

#Your child's requests

Your child asks for things from their family page. Each request appears in the To do list of the Overview page:

a request for more storage: Set the limit or Decline;
a request to lift a parental control: Approve turns that control off for them, or Decline.

When Confirm sensitive actions is on, approving a request asks for your password first.

#When your child turns 15

Drime offers the manager to end the child status. Every parental control is then lifted, and the child stays a member of the family.
