POS age verification built into every restricted sale
Selling tobacco, alcohol, vape products, lottery, CBD, and other age-restricted items comes with real responsibility. One missed check can put your revenue, reputation, and retail licenses at risk.
SuperSonic builds age verification directly into the checkout workflow. When a restricted product is scanned, the POS requires the appropriate verification before the cashier can continue.
The rule is not left to memory. It is built into the transaction.
Make age checks part of the checkout process
Cashiers work through long lines, shift changes, and hundreds of transactions. Even well-trained employees can miss a manual reminder when the store gets busy.
SuperSonic triggers age verification when an age-restricted product is scanned. The transaction cannot continue until the required step is completed according to your configured rules.
The same process applies across employees, shifts, and registers.
Less uncertainty. More consistent age checks.

A POS age verification system recognizes when an age-restricted product is scanned and prompts the cashier to complete the required age check. With a supported ID scanner, the POS can read the date of birth encoded in a driver’s license or state ID, calculate the customer’s age, and compare it with the configured requirement. The transaction can then continue or remain blocked based on the result and the store’s rules.
Yes. SuperSonic works with supported ID-scanning hardware that reads the barcode on a driver’s license or state-issued ID. The POS uses the encoded date of birth to calculate the customer’s age and determine whether the configured minimum-age requirement has been met. Barcode scanning calculates age, but merchants should still follow applicable procedures for visually examining the identification.
Yes. SuperSonic can require age verification when a restricted product is scanned and prevent the transaction from continuing until the configured verification step is completed. Stores can also require manager authorization for designated exceptions, helping create a more consistent process across employees, shifts, and registers.
Yes. SuperSonic can record verification details such as the transaction timestamp, employee, restricted product, verification result, and manager authorization. These records sync with SuperSonic Cloud so authorized users can review activity across employees, shifts, registers, and store locations.
