AGE ASSURANCE
Where age assurance is actually enforced
Two markets have a named regulator, a published standard and a public enforcement record. This is what each one requires, what it penalises, and where the sources are so you can check us.
ShareRing Me
One question, asked once: are you over 18? Nothing else is requested.
The same check behind every market on this page. About 60 seconds the first time, and about 2 seconds after it.
ShareRing Link
Four nodes. No code. About ten minutes.
One result per scan: the run id, pass or fail, and a timestamp.
THE MAP
Two markets, in order
Ranked on whether enforcement is live, whether a vendor is genuinely needed, and whether a designated national rail already locks a third party out. The order is the argument.
WHERE THE CHECK RUNS
The three places this lands
The rules above are the obligation. These are the pages that answer it, and each one opens on the same four node check you have just read about.
-
Advanced age verification
The age gate itself: prove the threshold, keep nothing, and satisfy the regulator that asked.
-
Nightlife and venues
A door, a queue and a code on the rail. The check that takes a minute once and seconds after it.
-
Dating, creator and adult platforms
A signup that proves the user is over 18 without ever holding their document.
WHAT IS NOT HERE
The markets we have left out, and why
- The United States
- The largest operator base anywhere and a settled constitutional position, but the number of states with a live requirement is reported as 25, 26 or 27 depending on the source and the date. We will publish it when we can date it.
- The European Union
- An enormous base, and a designated rail arriving before the sales cycle closes: the Commission’s own age-verification app and EUDI wallets. Any honest pitch there is “beside the wallet”, not “instead of it”.
- South Korea
- Total enforcement, and no room. Identity verification runs on a designated national rail that ShareRing does not replace. Enforcement without an open door is somebody else’s market.
The first question
Estimating an age and verifying one are different products.
One reads a face and returns a likelihood. The other reads a document once and returns a yes or a no. Both are legitimate and they answer different risk appetites, so the useful question is not which scores higher. It is what you are willing to be wrong about, and what you are willing to hold if you are.
One integration, priced per check
Age, KYC, AML and address from one workflow, from $0.45 a check: the first proof is about 45 cents and a returning proof is free. No monthly minimum and no lock-in. Prices are in Australian dollars.
