Selling age restricted goods made simple
Do you sell age restricted goods? Do you need to be able to confirm a person is over or under a certain age?
The sale of age-restricted goods online has exploded: more of us than ever are using the internet to download computer games, watch movies and see targeted advertisements, and purchase age restricted goods such as Alcohol, Tobacco & medicines.
