Tru.ly Launches First Ever Age Verification API Based on Government Issued Data

I have been watching Boston-based verification company Tru.ly closely for the past year or so. They have just released an age verification API that authenticates the age of an online user based on government issued data. Tru.ly cross-references user-submitted personal information to guarantee authenticated age. Tru.ly’s API is based on the Facebook registration application, which allows users and the partner sites to have a frictionless experience when proving their age.
This is good news for dating sites, some of which are a good fit for this sort of service. Anything to get people to stop lying about their age.
I suspect partnerships with scale manufacturers and a “most recent photo” verification service are around the corner.
I wonder how it will affect the “10 years older than I say I am” fib.
