(for tobacco and nicotine products, distance selling requires a system that electronically and unambiguously verifies the buyer’s age — a simple “I am 18” checkbox is not enough). The plugin blocks order completion for age-restricted (18+) products until the customer proves their age. The result is confirmed **server-side** (your secret API key never reaches the browser), so the check cannot be bypassed from the front end. The plugin interface is provided in Czech (and Slovak) and can be translated. #### Features * Verification via **Bank iD, MojeID, data box (datová schránka) or ID document scan** * **What to verify:** the whole shop / selected product categories (a clear picker that highlights typical 18+ categories) / individual products — “requires verification” or “exempt” right in the product settings (exempt always wins) * **When to verify:** at order completion (default) / when a gated item is added to the cart / on page entry (site-wide gate) * **Remember verification:** a configurable number of days — on the device (signed cookie) and, for logged-in customers, on their account (works across devices); 0 = verify on every order * **AgeCheck network:** a customer already verified at another shop in the network passes with a single click (cheaper repeat verification) * Works with the classic checkout and the **block checkout (Store API)** — server- side check in both; a proof-of-verification is stored on the order (visible in the order detail — evidence for regulatory inspections) * Privacy by design: only a “18+ yes/no” proof is stored, never the customer’s name or document number * HPOS compatible * No monthly fee — you pay only for completed verifications (account at agecheck. cz) ### External services This plugin connects to the **AgeCheck** service (agecheck.cz), which performs the age verification itself. Without an account at agecheck.cz the plugin does not work. * **What is sent:** to start a verification, your shop’s server creates a session through the API (only an internal order/cart reference is sent). The customer’s browser then opens the verification window on agecheck.cz and polls the session status (session ID). Your shop’s server confirms the result through the API using your API key. * **What is NOT sent:** the plugin does not send the customer’s name, address or order contents to the service. * **When:** only during age verification (no analytics, no background tracking). * Provider: vinireto s.r.o., https://agecheck.cz — terms: https://agecheck.cz/ tos · privacy: https://agecheck.cz/privacy-policy ### Support Author: Victor Eliot E-mail: mail@victoreliot.com Phone: +420 777 666 651 Web: https://agecheck.cz ## Screenshots [⌊Plugin settings — category picker with 18+ suggestions⌉⌊Plugin settings — category picker with 18+ suggestions⌉[ Plugin settings — category picker with 18+ suggestions [⌊Per-product control — mark a single product as "requires 18+" or "exempt" right in the product data⌉⌊Per-product control — mark a single product as "requires 18 +" or "exempt" right in the product data⌉[ Per-product control — mark a single product as “requires 18+” or “exempt” right in the product data [⌊Age gate in the checkout⌉⌊Age gate in the checkout⌉[ Age gate in the checkout [⌊Site-wide gate (the "page entry" trigger)⌉⌊Site-wide gate (the "page entry" trigger )⌉[ Site-wide gate (the “page entry” trigger) [⌊Proof of verification in the order detail⌉⌊Proof of verification in the order detail⌉[ Proof of verification in the order detail ## Installation 1. Upload the `victor-eliot-age-verification` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/` (or install the ZIP via Plugins Add New Upload Plugin) and activate it. 2. Register your shop for free at https://agecheck.cz/register and copy the shop ID(` mrch_…`) and API key (`oid_live_…`) from the **Integration** section. 3. Go to **Settings AgeCheck**, enter both values and choose: 4. * what to verify (all / categories / products), * when (order completion / add to cart / page entry), * how long to remember a verification. 5. For individual products you can tick “Requires age verification 18+” or “Exempt from age verification” in the product settings. ## FAQ ### Do I need an account at agecheck.cz? Yes. Registration is free and a new account gets a welcome credit to try it out; you only pay for completed verifications, with no monthly fee. ### Does it work with the block (Gutenberg) checkout? Yes — the server-side check also runs through the Store API, so an order cannot be completed without verification. The verification panel appears in the cart and via the “add to cart” / “page entry” triggers; on the classic checkout it appears right above the “Place order” button. ### Can a customer bypass verification by disabling JavaScript? No — the decisive check runs on the server (`woocommerce_checkout_process` and the Store API). Without a confirmed verification the order will not go through. ### Do you store customers’ personal data? No. The service returns only the “is over 18: yes/no” result and the method used. The name, date of birth and document number are not sent to the shop. ### How strict is remembering a verification? You decide: 0 days = every order is verified; otherwise the verification is remembered on the device (signed cookie) and, for logged-in customers, on their account. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Victor Eliot – Age Verification for WooCommerce” is open source software.
