How do I sign up minors to use Garbanzo?

Created by Samantha Brumagin, Modified on Fri, 28 Jun at 7:17 PM by Samantha Brumagin


In accordance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), students that are under the age of 13 must obtain 'email plus' parental approval in order to create a Garbanzo account. 

Follow these steps for setting up the accounts for minors:

  1. Provide the class URL and class invitation code
  2. Have the student fill out the form with their information (name, birthday, parent email address, Username and Password)
  3. A confirmation email will be sent to the parent/guardian
  4. Parent/guardian must verify the minor's account through their parental email
  5. After a parent or guardian has verified the account by clicking the verification link in their email, the minor can visit www.garbanzo.io/signin to log in to their Garbanzo account!
