Gambling sites already have payment information, which should include real names! (no, you should not be allowed to do non-KYC gambling, that's just money laundering)
- Mashimo 8mo agoBut how do you go from real name to age verification?
- ben_w 8mo agoI think it's more that proof of identity from the union of {payment information, KYC} also includes both of age verification and name, not that name leads to age.
- Mashimo 8mo agoAre the payment providers sending the age to the gamling site?
- ben_w 8mo ago> union of {payment information, KYC} As in, if you're not matching the payment info to your customer info, you (which may be the company or the government passing the laws the company is following just fine) did it wrong. Because, as pjc50 wrote, failing to do that is an obvious exploit for money laundering.
- Mashimo 8mo agoSorry, I don't get it. If I'm underage, but already have a payment card, the identity of the card matches my name. That is why dreadnip suggested the MitID approach.
- ben_w 8mo ago> If I'm underage, but already have a payment card, the identity of the card matches my name. And if a gambling site stops there and goes "LGTM", it's not the "union of {payment information, KYC}". Union, as in combination of both. KYC, as in "Know Your Customer". Looks like MitID is a thing that would be one way to do KYC? But I've only just heard of it, so belief is weakly held.
