This spring, when I got licenses for myself and punchcards for my kids (both under 15 years old, I ordered the stuff online. At that time, I had to create usernames and passwords for them and I saved the login info.
When it came time to report my and their crab (we all got 0 dungeness), I logged in using the same IDs and passwords from this spring. Worked pretty smoothly.
I used the same email address for all of us (my email address), but each person needs a different user ID.
I will be interested to know in 10 years, when they are on their own, if they will be able to set up their own account or if they will need your email in order to login...
I only had to provide the email address when setting up my and their profiles when purchasing online licenses, along with the basics like name, address, birthday, etc. Most/all of that information is already in the WILD system after purchasing online licenses for the last 10 years.
The email address can be changed anytime in the system, just like addresses, height, weight, etc. It's just the user ID and password that is needed to login to purchase a license, submit crab reports, or to just change your profile info.
That being said, all my effort was for naught, since my kids don't seem to be the least interested in fishing or crabbing.
** Edit: looking over my profile on their website, it looks like they have my transaction history up to at least 2011, including tracking my submissions of crab CRCs and my license purchases (both online and from dealer places like Big 5).
