The Benefits of Drivers License Verification

In September 2013, New York implemented a new
format
of drivers licenses in an effort to make them more secure. This was
done in hopes to start preventing underage drinking and reducing identity
fraud. Although New York is making an effort to secure identities, others
arent. Businesses need to be able to verify a customers age by their drivers
license, both for off-line and online activities. Drivers license verification
comes into play in many circumstances making verification extremely helpful in
preventing fraud within many age-restricted services.

verification and authentication for industries such a banking, insurance,
online gaming, alcohol related services and more. The verification solution has

various versions of drivers license formats, like a scanner does, is very
beneficial and cost effective. On top of verification factors available, the
