The problems every dating platform faces at scale
Catfish & fakes erode trust
Users lose confidence when matches aren't who they claim to be. Reviews tank, word spreads, and your best users leave first.
Manual review doesn't scale
Photo review teams are expensive, slow, and inconsistent. A 24-hour queue means users leave before they're verified.
Enterprise KYC is overkill
Veriff and Onfido were built for banks. Your users shouldn't need bank-style onboarding just to go on a date.
Platform safety pressure is rising
Dating platforms face growing pressure around age assurance, child safety, and account integrity across the UK, EU, and US. It is easier to build verification into onboarding now than add it later under pressure.
Same person, five accounts
Banned? New email, new profile, back in minutes. Users game the system with fresh accounts, harass after being reported, or abuse free trials on repeat.
Underage users slip through
A checkbox that says "I'm 18+" stops nobody. Without document-based age verification, minors get in and your platform carries the liability.
How ProofAge Helps
Outcomes that matter for your platform
Verified Profiles, Not Just Selfies
Users verify with a selfie paired with a government ID — confirming both their identity and age. Your users know every verified profile is backed by a real document, not just a photo check.
Block Banned Users
Same face shows up on a new account? Caught instantly. Every verified face is matched against a biometric index, so banned users are flagged the moment they try to come back.
One Person, One Account
Duplicate account prevention compares each user's face and date of birth against everyone already verified. If the same person signs up under a different account, you know about it — no prior ban required.
Keep Signup Fast
No bank-style onboarding, no app switch, no third-party redirect. A white-label flow that lives inside your app, works on any phone camera, and finishes before users lose interest.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does identity verification work for dating apps?
Users complete a quick verification flow embedded in your app: a selfie to confirm they're a real person, paired with a government ID to verify their identity and age. The whole process takes seconds, with no app switch or third-party redirect.
Can ProofAge stop banned users from coming back?
Yes. Every verified face is matched against a biometric index. If a banned user creates a new account, ProofAge detects the match and flags or blocks the attempt automatically — before they reach your users.
What if the same person creates multiple accounts?
ProofAge's duplicate account prevention detects when the same person verifies under multiple accounts by comparing their face and date of birth. If a match is found, the verification is flagged so your team can decide what to do. This works even when the person uses a different email, phone number, or document.
How much does verification cost?
Identity verification starts from $0.30 per completed check. Abandoned or timed-out sessions are never charged. The first 15 days are free with no commitment.
How long does the verification take?
Most verifications complete in seconds. The white-label flow works on any phone camera with no app download or redirect required, keeping drop-off rates low.
Does ProofAge work with any tech stack?
Yes. ProofAge provides a clean REST API with webhook callbacks that works with any language or framework. A dedicated Laravel package is also available for PHP teams.
What data does ProofAge store?
ProofAge stores only what's necessary for verification and fraud prevention. Biometric templates are used for deduplication but original photos are not retained after processing. No data is ever sold. All handling is privacy-first by design.
Does ProofAge verify the user's age?
Yes. Age is extracted directly from the government-issued ID during verification. This replaces self-declared age checkboxes with a document-backed check, helping platforms meet legal obligations and keep minors off the platform.
