Alcohol age verification legislation.
Most regulatory authorities require online retailers to verify their customers’ age when buying alcohol.
In the UK, Alcohol Licensing guidance published in 2013 sets out the regulations and ramifications of selling alcohol. In the EU, the Regulation of Alcohol Marketing in Europe legislation details what is expected of alcohol retailers.
Our age verification system provides alcohol retailers with a process that recognises the potential implications of selling age-restricted products to underage consumers and ensures that you operate in line with the regulations in place.
