How Age Validation works

See how easy it is to validate user age

Age taken from ID document

Veriff extracts the date of birth from your user’s identity document to calculate their age.

Age checked against threshold

The calculated age is cross-checked to see if it is above your predefined minimum age threshold. You can set your own thresholds, the most common are 13, 14, 16, 18, 20, 21, or 25.

Enable auto-decline of underage users

The age validation result is returned and users below your predefined threshold can be automatically declined.

Protection and safety

Protect your business and underage users by ensuring that age-restricted content, products, and communities cannot be accessed by minors.

Make age verification seamless with an automated check

Veriff’s Age Validation solution enables you to seamlessly confirm whether or not users are above a predefined minimum age threshold, crucial for any business that provides age-gated content, goods, or services.

Assisted Image Capture

Veriff uses machine-learning technology to assess sessions in real-time and guide users during the photo-taking steps. Poor lighting, glare, cropped ID, and obstructed facial images are just a couple of examples of how Assisted Image Capture pre-validates images and boosts first-time pass rates.

Network and device analytics

As a fraud prevention measure, Veriff analyzes the device and network used for a verification session and assigns each a unique fingerprint. Along with hundreds of other parameters, personal data on the ID, and other inconsistencies before a result is provided.

Liveness detection

Veriff can determine if a session or user is real or a spoof attempt, without unnecessary input from the user. Your customers won't have to complete any additional steps for Veriff’s liveness detection.
