Things you need to know
When you buy or register a child go card, you will need to nominate the account holder and the authorised user.
You can also do this for an adult go card, but it is not mandatory.

The account holder and authorised user can be the same person, or may be different people, such as a parent (account holder) and child (authorised user).
