TapTrust makes age checks fast and easy for bars, venues, and event teams. Using the iPhone already at the door, staff can check whether a guest meets a chosen age requirement with a supported ID in Apple Wallet. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose any whole-number age threshold from 18 to 65. 2. The guest holds their iPhone near yours and approves the Wallet request. 3. TapTrust shows whether the selected threshold was met. MADE FOR BUSY DOORS • Fast Mode automatically prepares the next check • Show Each Result pauses after each check so staff can review the outcome • Session totals track threshold met, threshold not met, cancelled checks, and issues • No extra scanner hardware or account required SUPPORTED WALLET IDS TapTrust works with supported mobile driver’s licenses, state IDs, and passport-based Digital IDs in Apple Wallet, where available. Availability depends on the guest’s device, issuer, region, and Apple’s supported verification flows. PRIVATE BY DESIGN TapTrust requests only whether the guest meets the selected age threshold. It does not request or store the guest’s name, date of birth, document number, address, or other personal identity details. START FOR FREE Download TapTrust and start checking for free.
