I pay for a family plan and it has my girlfriend and her sister on it. I would like to know if it is possible to allow them to purchase their own Microsoft points that they can use themselves.
Right now I have to purchase the points and give it to them.

One way they can get points is to purchase them directly from Microsoft's Xbox website. First it will have the user sign in to their live account. Then they will be able to choose what they would like to purchase and complete the transaction.
This may not be the easiest way, but I am all for prepaid cards. These are available online (Amazon can provide instant codes or mail cards to you, I am sure other companies can do the same) and at retailers nationwide. Once you get the card and have your Xbox turned on and signed in, press the Nexus button and scroll to the left. Select Redeem code and type in the code. They should then have points available to them.
I will make this one comment: I am not on a family plan. However, buying and using points should be the same across all membership options.
