You're competing with photos of a drivers license.

Not sure if you're joking or not, but Denmark have had people show an edited screenshot of the drivers license app, to get into clubs or buy alcohol.

I think they "fixed" it. I think it has some effect now that only works if you tilt the phone.

  • You're competing with that for "I want to make sure the person standing in front of me is of legal drinking age" use-case, but for the remote KYC/age-verification usecases, you're competing with a photo of the document and/or a selfie.

    Maybe bundling these under the same system is a mistake and they should be separate systems with different considerations; it would certainly help with arguments about it online ;P

  • Bouncer love it, when someone says "oh sorry, I forgot my ID, can you let me in anyway?" they just tell them to download the app :)

    • I don't know about other countries, but here it requires your passport or actual drivers license, and a 12 or 24 hour wait, to actually activate the drivers license app.
