Age verification is a secure digital tool that uses AI (and, when needed, human review) to confirm a player's age. Here's how to complete verification in Ankored.
What You'll Need
Please prepare the following:
A recent headshot photo of your child
One of the following documents:
Government-issued birth certificate
Government-issued passport
Government-issued ID
Documents from outside the U.S. are accepted.
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Log in to Ankored
2. Select your child's profile (Choose the correct profile if you have multiple children.)
3. Click Begin Verification
4. Review your child's date of birth (Confirm that the date is accurate before continuing.)
5. Upload a headshot photo (Choose a clear, recent photo.)
6. Upload one supporting document
7. Review and consent. You'll be asked to agree to:
Sensitive and biometric data policy
Confirmation that the information is accurate

What Happens Next
Instant Verification
Most submissions (95–97%) are verified instantly, typically within 2 minutes.
After verification, your child's profile shows a Verified badge with:
Your child's photo
Verification date
Confirmed age
A QR code for fast entry at events
If Your Submission Is Not Approved
Some submissions may require a brief manual review, or may not be approved, if:
Document information needs clarification
A photo is unclear
Your child's date of birth falls outside the age range your organization set for their division
If this happens, you will receive an email explaining why verification wasn't approved, what needs correction, and how to resubmit. You can also see the reason on your child's profile in Ankored.
