Age & ID verification

Where you sell age-restricted goods, SalesPoint360 prompts at the till and keeps a record you can produce later.

Marking products

Set a product as age restricted with its minimum age. Any sale containing it prompts the cashier before it can be completed — so the check does not depend on someone remembering which lines are restricted.

At the register

The cashier is prompted to check identification and confirm. That confirmation is a cashier attestation: SalesPoint360 records that a named person checked at a given time, which is what an audit or a test purchase asks for.

It records the check; it does not perform it. Your training and your policy still do the work.

Unattended sales

At a kiosk there is nobody to attest, so restricted items are hard-blocked and must be completed with a staff member. Treat that as a feature rather than an obstacle.

The log

Restaurant & Appointments → ID Verification keeps every check with the sale, the product, the staff member and the timestamp. Because it is tied to the transaction, a specific sale can always be traced back to who approved it.

Using it well

• Set the minimum age from your jurisdiction's rules, not the product's packaging.
• Apply a challenge policy — asking anyone who looks under 25 for a 18+ product is standard practice in many markets.
• Review the log periodically; a cashier who never records a challenge on a restricted line is worth a conversation.
• Never share logins, or the log records the wrong person.

Related checks

The same mechanism suits any sale needing verification before completion — membership, a licence, or a prescription collection.

Note: your business can rename menu items (Settings → POS Configuration → Menu Labels), so the names in your menu may differ from those shown here.
