Use Cases

Every regulatedindustry. One API.

From blocking minors on adult platforms to KYC for crypto exchanges. IDProval fits the compliance shape of your industry without requiring a custom build for each one.

Age-restricted verticals

When the wrong user getting through isn't an option.

These industries operate under active regulatory scrutiny. A missed age check isn't just a product problem — it's a licence risk, a fine, and sometimes criminal liability.

Age-restricted access

Adult Content Platforms

Regulatory requirements in the UK, EU, and US increasingly mandate verified age checks before accessing adult content. IDProval's passive age estimation runs in the background — document fallback kicks in only when needed, keeping friction minimal for genuine users while blocking underage access at the gate.

Online Alcohol & Spirits Retail

Delivery platforms and DTC alcohol brands face steep fines when alcohol reaches minors. IDProval integrates into checkout flows to verify age without redirecting users away from your site. A one-time verified status can persist across future purchases so repeat customers are never slowed down.

Online Gambling & Betting

Gaming regulators require robust identity verification before a user can deposit, withdraw, or place bets. IDProval handles the full KYC stack — document verification, face match, liveness, and age checks — in a single session. Outcome webhooks wire directly into your risk engine.

Cannabis Dispensaries & Delivery

Legal cannabis markets require age verification at the point of purchase — both in-store and for delivery. IDProval's mobile-optimised SDK lets delivery drivers verify a customer's ID on the doorstep using their phone, with the result logged to your platform in real time.
