Photo ID Verification

An accurate age verification method using secure ID scanning to confirm a user’s exact age.

How It Works
The user is prompted to scan their ID using their device’s camera. This image is securely submitted to the 18Verified server and is analysed using AI. The system then extracts key details from the ID to determine if the user meets the minimum age requirement.

If the verification is successful, the user can proceed. If not, they will be offered alternative age verification methods to continue.
