Hi there.
You can disable purchasing abilities for an account by adjusting the "Online Activity" settings. To do this follow these steps:
- Sign into the profile and navigate to the "My xbox" slide on the dashboard.
- Scroll right once, to your profile tab and select it by hitting A on your controller.
- Scroll to the right again to "Online Safety".
- Choose the option to change the settings for your account.
- One of the options will allow you to disable purchasing abilities.
If you need further help, you can review the following support page: Online Safety and Privacy

I cannot find anything about purchasing abilities though...
The online safety shows me default settings for adult, teen and child. Looking at the customize part, there are settings for activity(voice/video communication), privacy (whom to share info with), Content(what can I see) and Contect (marketing)..
Nothing I can see to related to purchasing...
Does it matter I have a family pack?

Found it, I think...
There is probably no purchasing ability setting for the main member... I hadn't added separate accounts for my kids yet, but have done so now, and in xbox.com I can then indeed block purchasing for them...
Thanks for the help...

No generally the main account security is supposed to be the parent not a child and access to the main account is the responsibility of the parent you can add a passcode to prevent people from signing on your main account

Or you could do a family pack if you had multiple accts and the primary account would be the only one who can make purchases with the credit card on file.
