Petition Action

Allow minors to have access to business resources which they currently cannot.

Petition Details

Currently you have to be 18 to access most business resources
Such as Business Bank Accounts. Most banks will not let a child use there children’s account for business activity When banks discovered that minors are using their personal account for business banking, immediately the account is frozen

Additional Information

Young people in business are constantly campaigning to try and make it possible for more and more to start on the amazing journey of entrepreneurship.

Currently, I have approached a number of different banks but there is one which may be interested in the idea.

The next problem that needs tackling is payment gateway and merchant accounts for u18’s as again at present this is not possible and subsequently limits trade considerably.
