Google Family Pay approval

Has anyone got Google Family Pay to work?

Both me and DS (13) have Android phones with Google accounts. We've got Google Family Link set up so I have to approve any app download and can set time limits etc. I've recently set it up a Family Pay method (my credit card) which should allow him to buy apps and subscriptions and it gets charged to my card after I've approved it.

I'm trying to set him up with his own Headspace account, with a subscription. We've downloaded the app to his phone without issue but when he clicks on the subscription button he gets a message to say that a parent needs to approve it. However, I'm not getting any kind of notification asking me to approve and there's nothing in my Play or Family Link account to approve the charge.

Can anyone help? I'm normally pretty good with this stuff but this has been stumped! Total "computer says no" moment!
