With fines soaring in British Columbia—$7,000 for a single underage sale and up to $15,000 for repeat violations—and sting ops carrying no warning for under‑19 service, hospitality operators need a reliable, affordable, and privacy‑protecting way to verify ID. Minor Decliner delivers:
1. Privacy-Protecting Configuration
Minor Decliner scans only the barcode and displays a simple “Sale” or “No Sale” result without storing photos or sensitive personal information. Data logging is optional, exportable, and fully configurable to respect PII and maintain customer privacy.
2. Works for Canadian & U.S. IDs
Supports every Canadian and U.S. driver’s license and state ID. It also allows manual entry for passports and damaged credentials—perfect for tourist-heavy regions and cross-border venues.
3. Detects Fake IDs
With the optional Intellicheck-powered fake ID detection, Minor Decliner identifies over 90% of counterfeit IDs, ensuring you don’t get fooled by high-quality fakes.
4. Economical Price
Starting at just USD $649, Minor Decliner is far less expensive than a single provincial fine. Optional fake ID credits and upgrades add powerful features without stretching your budget.
5. Easy to Set Up & Implement
Plug it in and start scanning—no training or IT setup required. Results appear in under a second, and staff can be ready to use it in minutes.
Real Stakes in BC & Canada: Why Strict ID Systems Are Critical
According to Business in Vancouver (read here), hospitality establishments in B.C. face fines from $7,000 for first offenses to $11,000–$15,000 for repeat violations, with no prior warnings during undercover stings.
In one case, a North Vancouver restaurant was fined $7,000 after serving a minor during a sting operation—even though staff claimed they checked IDs. Manual checks simply aren’t enough.
