The Challenge
Selling age-restricted products has always required staff oversight. That limits hours, increases labor costs, and leaves valuable revenue untapped in unattended spaces.
Retail teams need a way to stay compliant without giving up convenience—or profit.
The Solution: Age Verification by 365
Age Verification brings secure identity confirmation to unattended retail.
Integrated directly into PicoCooler Vision and Stockwell, this feature uses CLEAR’s trusted verification technology to confirm a shopper’s age and identity in seconds.
The result: compliance you can rely on, and freedom to expand your product mix responsibly.
How It Works
- Shopper scans a QR code to verify with CLEAR.
- CLEAR confirms their ID and facial match instantly.
- The cooler unlocks, and the shopper selects an age-restricted item.
- They close the door and the purchase is completed.
Fast, intuitive, and built into the same self-service flow customers already know.
