Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Home / FAQs

What is 18verified?

18verified is a discreet age verification service that allows adults to access restricted content safely, securely, and legally. Verify once with a simple payment method, then use your login across all participating platforms.

Why do I need to verify my age?

Due to new UK laws and the Online Safety Act, websites hosting adult content and other sensitive material must legally verify users are 18 or over. 18verified helps websites stay compliant — and helps you access content without having your face scanned or uploading personal documents or ID.

How does verification work?

To verify your age, simply make a £2 payment using a credit card. This activates your £2/month subscription, which confirms you’re over 18 — since credit cards are only issued to adults. No face scans, no intrusive ID uploads required.

Don’t have a credit card?

No problem. You can also verify your age by securely uploading a valid photo ID. Once approved, you’ll gain full access just like any other verified user.

Is my information safe?

Yes. We never collect or store personal ID documents. Your payment details are handled securely by trusted third-party payment providers, and we never share your information with third parties.

Will my bank statement show anything sensitive?

No. Your statement will show a neutral billing name 18verified LTD to protect your privacy. There will be no mention of adult content.

Do I have to verify my age every time I visit a new site?

No. Once you’re verified with 18verified, you can use the same login on any participating website. One verification. One login. Unlimited access.

How much does it cost?

Verification costs just £2 per month. This covers your access across multiple websites without needing to verify each time. Businesses don’t carry the cost — you do.

Can I cancel my subscription?

Yes. You can cancel at any time. You’ll retain access until the end of your billing period.
