Age Verify

1.1.1

Check whether a customer is eligible for age-restricted products and services. Vodafone only holds age details for certain customers, and there are some limitations: The MSISDN must be a postpaid Vodafone account. The MSISDN must not belong to a family account (i.e. accounts with two or more MSISDNs), or a business account.

How it works

A customer is shopping online and puts an age-restricted item in their basket.
The customer is notified on the website (or app) that they must verify their age and insert their mobile phone number (MSISDN).
The website sends an SMS to the customer to confirm their age.
The customer clicks the link contained in the SMS to prove possession of the phone number.
The website sends an Age Verify request to Vodafone.
Vodafone responds with True/False as to whether the MSISDN belongs to someone 18 or older.

The device needs to be identifiable by the network. Our implementation requires the IP address to return a location. If an IP address is not provided by the user, the system takes the sending IP address from the http request and then populates the IP header in the API call.
