Age Verification
Confirming a customer meets a legal age requirement at checkout — required for firearms, nicotine, and other restricted goods.
Age verification confirms that a buyer meets the legal minimum age for a restricted product, such as nicotine, vape, firearms, or adult goods. It can range from a checkout attestation to a third-party identity check.
Acquiring banks treat robust age verification as a condition of approval for these categories, because it directly limits the sale of restricted goods to ineligible buyers.
