Am I able to stop the family organizer from getting purchase notifications?

If I use a iTunes gift card for a in app purchase will the family organizer still get a purchase receipt?

Hello OwenW100,


We understand that you want to know if you use an iTunes gift card for an in app purchase will the family member still get a purchase receipt. We're happy to provide some information about using gift cards with Family Sharing.


If a family member has store credit on their Apple ID then the credit is used before any remainder is charged to the organizer's payment method. The family organizer will still get a purchase receipt for the purchase. The iTunes Gift card must be redeemed onto the Family Member's account and not the Family Organizer's account.

Let us know if you have any questions.

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Take care!
