Greenlight Family Shield

What Greenlight Family Shield is

Greenlight Family Shield is a paid plan for family dark-web monitoring, identity protection, and related family tools, available on iOS and Android. It scans dark-web marketplaces, forums, and breach databases for covered members’ email addresses, phone numbers, Social Security numbers, and card numbers. Greenlight says alerts typically arrive within 24 hours of a detected breach; exposed information comes with a step-by-step recovery plan and access to identity-restoration specialists. One plan covers up to nine people: two adults, two senior loved ones, and five kids. Protections include bank account and SSN monitoring, TransUnion credit lock, monitoring across all three credit bureaus, up to $1 million in identity-theft coverage, and up to $100,000 in deceptive transfer fraud coverage. Additional features include location monitoring, location alerts, crash detection, driving reports, and debit cards for up to five kids and two seniors. The plan also includes chores, allowance, direct deposit, investing with parent approval, and 6% earned on savings subject to eligibility terms. Family Shield costs $19.98 a month and offers a 30-day trial. Location features require a compatible phone with location services enabled.
