Veratad has arranged a high-profile platform from which to pitch its age verification technology: The company will be a sponsor and exhibitor for this year’s Tobacco Plus Expo.

TPE is billed as North America’s biggest trade show for the tobacco industry, attracting a range of professionals from across the business. And given the age restrictions around the purchase of tobacco products, it’s a natural venue for Veratad’s age verification solutions, with CEO John E. Ahrens promising in a statement that his firm will take the opportunity of TPE 2019 to showcase “a heightened age verification process” that leverages the company’s PhoneMatch solution, two-factor authentication, and mobile data.

“This new heightened age verification process adds additional layers of assurance that an online visitor is who they say they are and meets our customer’s age requirements to aid in their compliance efforts,” Ahrens added.

The TPE showcase will add to a very busy few weeks for Veratad, which is also going to participate in “The Identity Revolution Comes to Healthcare“, the latest entry in FindBiometrics’ renowned webinar series and the culmination of Healthcare Biometrics Month. TPE 2019 is slated to run from February 11th to 13th in Las Vegas, with the webinar to follow on March 6th at 11:00am ET.
