Documentation

Everything you need to integrate Valid into your website.

1Create Your Account & Add a Site

Sign up for Valid, then go to your Dashboard and add your website. You'll receive a unique API key for each site.

2Add the Embed Script

Copy the embed code from your site settings and paste it into your website's HTML, just before the closing </body> tag.

<!-- Validfied Age Verification -->
<script src="https://validfied.com/api/functions/embedScript?key=YOUR_API_KEY">
</script>

3Configure Regional Settings

In your site settings, configure which US states should have access blocked entirely, and which states should be exempt from the verification requirement. This allows you to comply with varying state-level age verification laws.

4That's It — You're Done

Valid handles the rest. When a user visits your site, they'll see the verification modal. They upload their ID, we verify their age, and if they're 18+, they get access. No personal data is ever stored.

How Verification Works

Upload

User uploads a photo of their government-issued ID (driver's license, state ID, or passport).

Analyze

Our AI extracts only the date of birth from the ID image. No other data is read or stored.

Verify

We calculate the user's age. If they are 18+, access is granted immediately.

Delete

The uploaded image is immediately discarded. Zero data retention. Zero risk.

Support

Valid does not provide technical support. This documentation covers everything you need for integration. The setup is intentionally simple — one script tag, one API key, and optional regional configuration from your dashboard.
