According to an article in the New York Times, ID Scanning devices are becoming a prevalent fixture at many alcohol distributors. There are many reasons you might need to know the true age of customers who are frequenting your business. Maybe you run a nightclub or alcohol serving establishment and by law, can only serve customers or allow admittance to your establishment to potential customers over the age of 21. Or you could own a shop that sells cigarettes, or a restaurant that serves alcohol and cigarettes.

Whatever the reason you need to verify a person's age, you know that it is important to do so. As a conscientious business owner you don't want to sell to minors, and the fines and penalties can be heavy if you are caught.
