THE REGULATORY SHIFT

Age Verification Is Becoming Mandatory

From 25+ U.S. states to the European Union, UK, and Australia, governments are strictly enforcing new laws that require platforms to prevent underage access to restricted content and services.

The legal landscape has fundamentally changed: regulatory frameworks are now shifting direct liability - and the risk of massive fines - onto platform operators.

BUSINESSES MUST DEMONSTRATE:
  • Effective age validation (without degrading UX)

  • Strict data minimization (Zero-Knowledge processing)

  • Secure handling of identity information

  • Auditability and compliance readiness

THIS IS NO LONGER OPTIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE.

PLUG & PLAY INTEGRATION

Age Verification API

REST, SDKs, OAuth 2.0, and a WordPress plugin for a no-code path

AgeOnce is a privacy-first age verification API for B2B products. Redirect users to verify, validate a signed token server-side, and receive only an age threshold plus an Audit ID. No passport images or face photos are stored on your servers.

Built for custom apps, marketplaces, and streaming platforms. A typical integration takes a day or less: add a redirect URL, handle the callback, validate the token, and set a session flag.

  • SDK-ready (Node, Python, PHP, Go, Ruby, Java)

  • WordPress / WooCommerce Plugin

  • REST API

  • OAuth 2.0 & token validation

FAQS

We've got the answers

AgeOnce is a biometric age verification service that allows websites and applications to verify user age without storing their personal data.

The user is redirected to AgeOnce, grants camera permission, the system analyzes biometric data in real time, and returns a result: age confirmed or not.

No. Biometric data is processed in real time and not stored. We only store the fact of a successful verification.

Basic integration takes from 30 minutes to a few hours depending on your stack. WordPress takes 5–10 minutes with our ready-made plugin. Node.js, Python, or PHP usually takes 30–60 minutes. Custom integrations take several hours.

Yes. We minimize data collection and do not store biometric information, which aligns with GDPR data minimization principles.

Yes. The Free plan is free forever and includes up to 100 verifications per month.

By default, the age_token is valid for 10 minutes.

Each successful verification returns a Transaction ID (the same as verification_id in the JWT). Store this ID in your order, database, or CRM. In the Dashboard Audit Logs you can search by Transaction ID to see when and how the verification was completed, for compliance and support.
