The Challenge
Verification fatigue is real
Every new site means another ID scan, another selfie, another form. Users abandon. Data exposure compounds.
Repeated friction
Age verification on every site, every time. ID scans, selfies, forms — the friction compounds across the web.
Unnecessary data exposure
Each verification collects personal data. Face scans, IDs, credit cards — every check is another privacy risk.
Drop-off at the gate
Users already verified elsewhere still face full verification. Unnecessary friction kills conversion.
How It WOrks
Users arrive verified before they reach you
Most age credentials work on one site. AgeKey works across the internet. Verified once, accepted at any compatible site.
