In an era where digital ID verification is becoming essential for age-restricted purchases, Minor Decliner has taken a significant step by integrating TruAge, the NACS-backed digital age verification solution. This integration positions Minor Decliner at the forefront of seamless, secure, and efficient age verification technology, expanding its usability beyond traditional point-of-sale (POS) systems.
TruAge: The Future of Digital Age Verification
TruAge is a cutting-edge digital age verification system designed to simplify compliance for retailers while ensuring a smooth customer experience. Developed by NACS (National Association of Convenience Stores) and Conexxus, TruAge provides an industry-standard protocol for digital ID verification, reducing fraud and enhancing security.
Traditionally, age verification has relied on manual ID checks or POS-based scanning. However, with Minor Decliner’s integration of TruAge, businesses now have a fast, privacy-focused solution that works across various retail and hospitality environments—even those without a traditional POS system.
Minor Decliner’s Advantage: TruAge Token Integration
Minor Decliner’s ID scanners are now equipped to read TruAge tokens, allowing them to instantly verify a customer's age without requiring a physical ID. This provides a frictionless experience for both businesses and customers, reducing lines, enhancing security, and ensuring compliance with legal requirements.
While many retailers leverage TruAge within POS systems, Minor Decliner expands its applicability to non-traditional settings, such as:
- Bars & Nightclubs – Traditional POS terminals are often unavailable at the entrance of a bar or club. With Minor Decliner’s portable TruAge-enabled scanners, bouncers and security staff can verify age instantly without slowing down entry lines.
- Concerts & Festivals – Large venues with alcohol sales need reliable, fast age verification methods that don’t depend on a POS system. Minor Decliner’s handheld and mobile solutions make TruAge verification easy in high-traffic environments.
- Self-Service Kiosks & Vending Machines – Businesses selling age-restricted products through vending machines or kiosks can integrate Minor Decliner’s scanners to allow access only to verified adults.
- Cigar & Liquor Stores Without Traditional Checkout Lanes – Some specialty shops operate without a conventional checkout counter. Minor Decliner’s TruAge-compatible scanners provide a seamless solution for verifying customers before they make a purchase.
