You don't. You create their own account and application, and then during the process the system will ask if you are a member, and make theirs free if you are. Remember you need a separate email address for their account. You can use the same cell number as your account, but not the same email address.

But if you have gmail I think you can add a period in your name and Global Entry will think it’s a different email address but gmail will not.

Yes that's a good trick if your kids don't have a consistent email address.

All go to the same account, but the GE system considers them different.

One of the many reasons we use a password manager now. I think it's a must have/use in 2024.
