## Description

AgeChecker.Net is more than an age gate anyone can pass by checking a box. We are
the leading provider in online age verification for age-restricted industries, offering
a true age verification solution designed to prevent underage sales and comply with
the latest FDA, federal, and state regulations. We handle age verification so you
don’t have to manually verify customers or risk selling to underage buyers.

### Instant Age Verification

AgeChecker.Net accesses the world’s largest identity networks and a proprietary 
database of verified customers to instantly verify over 90% of your customers at
checkout. Further authentication is necessary for fewer than 10% of your customers,
who have simple options to upload an image of their ID to complete a transaction.
Eliminate extensive wait times—our 24/7 live team manually verifies IDs in less 
than a minute, and customers never have to leave your checkout page. Those approved
via photo ID are then instantly verified on any website using AgeChecker.Net.

### Enhanced Compliance

For highly regulated industries such as vape and tobacco, alcohol, and firearms,
compliance with the latest state and federal regulations is critical to good business
practices. AgeChecker.Net makes it easy to stay on top of the latest changes with
a flexible system that allows you to customize age verification requirements based
on location and modify the verification process to fit your business’s needs.

### Superior Security

AgeChecker.Net takes data privacy very seriously. Information submitted through 
our secure system is stored solely for the purpose of expediting verification during
subsequent transactions, and is never shared or sold. Images of photo IDs are deleted
as soon as they are verified, ensuring your customers’ private information will 
not fall into the wrong hands.

### Optimized Customer Experience

Confusing, slow verification systems can drive frustrated customers away. AgeChecker.
Net’s fast and easy process reduces cart abandonment by automatically retrieving
information already entered at checkout for verification, eliminating any redundant
input.

### What’s included with an AgeChecker.Net account:

 * Free, same-day installation by our team
 * Plug-ins for all major ecommerce platforms
 * Flexible API for custom integration
 * ~95% instant verification rate
 * Manual ID verification by our live team in 10 seconds on average

 * Reduce chargebacks and fraudulent orders
 * 24/7 email and phone support for you and your customers
 * Compliant with FDA, federal, and state regulations
 * Volume discounts available

## Installation

Create an account at [AgeChecker.Net](https://agechecker.net/) and activate it by
entering your billing information.

Go to **WooCommerce > Settings > Integration > AgeChecker.Net**

In the AgeChecker.Net settings view, enter the name of your store and the API key.
You can find your API key under the **Websites** tab of your AgeChecker.Net account
dashboard.

If you are using the default theme, this configuration should work. However custom
themes, templates, and extensions may modify the checkout form and change the order
button. Right click on the order button on your checkout page and click “Inspect
Element”, then right click on the element in the DOM viewer and choose “Copy > Copy
Selector” to get the unique element selector for the order button.

Click “Save changes” when you are finished.

### 󠀁[By Far The Best Age Checker](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/by-far-the-best-age-checker/)󠁿

 [SSVapes](https://profiles.wordpress.org/username12/) Setembre 25, 2024

I must admit, I’m surprised to see only two reviews for the Age Checker plugin, 
albeit they are 5-star reviews. We’ve used this plugin since the Age Checker company
started with nothing but good results and a fair price. It does the job eloquently
and the customers do not seem to mind using it. This plugin is especially noteworthy
because it has never conflicted with other plugins and rarely requires an update.
It efficiently performs its complex tasks through a simple process, without slowing
down the website. Credit goes to the developers for writing clean, secure code that
causes no issues. On the rare occasion that we needed support, the team responded
quickly and resolved the issue promptly. I remember that, in the beginning, we had
to deactivate the plugin. They reached out to us to offer assistance, which was 
a nice touch. If this company made a shopping cart with AC built in I would certainly
buy it.

Been using for a few months now. Works well, no complaints. Customers *seem* okay
with it.

are fantastic.
