Digital ID

Here your users scan a QR code using their digital ID app and share a verified age attribute, such as 18+ or 21+.

This requires a one-time onboarding process with an ID document and a selfie. Once created, users are verified for life and can use their digital ID to prove their age or identity details with businesses online and in person.

Good for:

  • Reusable authentication

  • High assurance

  • Global coverage

Yoti will then calculate if the user is acceptable for your age requirement.

You can receive either:

  • The age in years

  • ‘OVER’ or ‘UNDER’ the age requirement

The user will have a share receipt in their Digital ID app showing what was shared, with whom and when. Yoti also has a share receipt that only contains a date and timestamp, and that a date of birth attribute was provided but we do not store the date of birth itself. We store a encrypted receipt securely in our UK data centre.

To enable the Digital ID as an option to perform an age verification service.
