AgeCheck

AgeCheck isn't a bolt-on age gate. It's the same certified verification technology already trusted for Right to Work and KYC, applied to a newly and actively enforced legal obligation.

Ofcom is already issuing seven-figure fines for age checks that don't meet the legal bar.

Since July 2025, the UK Online Safety Act has required 'highly effective' age assurance for any service accessible to children — and Ofcom has already fined providers up to £1 million, with penalties reaching 10% of global turnover or up to £18 million.

A checkbox and a self-declared birthdate no longer count. AgeCheck uses the same certified identity verification technology behind myRTW and myKYC.
