Talent Under 18
Young talent is welcome on Jida. Here's how it works for families.
Minors Are Welcome
Jida represents talent of all ages, including children and teenagers. Many brands look for young talent for family campaigns, kids' fashion, educational content, and more. If your child has the interest and the look, there are real opportunities waiting.
A Guardian Must Manage the Account
For talent under 18, a parent or legal guardian is required to create and manage the account. Minors cannot sign up on their own. The guardian is the primary account holder and is responsible for all activity on the platform.
Guardian Verification
Before adding any children, the guardian must complete their own verification process. This includes:
- Signing up with their phone number and verifying via OTP
- Selecting Guardian as their account type
- Uploading their own Civil ID for identity verification
- Completing the onboarding steps
This ensures that every child on the platform has a verified, accountable adult managing their profile.
Adding Your Children
Once verified, guardians can add their children's profiles through their account. Each child gets their own talent profile with their own photos, measurements, and details. See our detailed guide on How to Add Your Children.
Guardian Approval for All Bookings
No booking involving a minor will proceed without explicit guardian approval. When a brand is interested in your child for a project, you'll be notified with all the details — the brand, the shoot dates, location, and compensation. You decide whether to accept or decline. Nothing happens without your say-so.
How to Sign Up as a Guardian
