Security and privacy decision
VERIFYID
A competent developer can build a working age-check flow and plugins, but the vendor's compliance, official MitID/AltID partnership, insurance, and managed/legal assurances are durable advantages that are hard to replicate, so consider building a limited in-house workflow but keep paying for the full certified service.

Nothing published replaces this one, so a replacement starts from an empty file. Here is what it would have to cover.
What a replacement has to do
- When a shopper reaches an age-restricted checkout or page, trigger a MitID verification flow, receive verification result via webhook, allow or block the purchase/page, and record the verification for audit/compliance.
What it still won’t have
- Official MitID/AltID partnership, contracts, and certification
- Insurance and being the official data-controller service
- Turnkey plug-and-play support and managed installation
- Guaranteed compliance/legal assurances and liability handling
What remains hard
- Integration maintenance
WooCommerce Shopify PrestaShop WordPress Magento Wix Squarespace Custom CMS
- Brand trust

First-year cost
No published price
VERIFYID does not publish a price we could read, so there is nothing to compare against. What building costs is below.

What we assumed
The verdict above measures whether you could build it. This one is only about money.
Runnable build prompt
Build a minimal MitID-based age verification service: use Node.js + Express for the backend, Postgres for storage, React for a small admin UI, and a simple JS embed/snippet for storefronts. Implement MitID OAuth/web verification flow and webhook handling, enforce 16/18 age rules, record verification results, expose REST endpoints for Shopify/WooCommerce plugins, and provide installer scripts for plugin integration. Out of scope: AltID integration, liability/insurance, and official MitID partnership/certification. Include error handling, logging, and unit+integration tests; provide deployment docs (Docker, Compose, and an AWS/GCP hosting guide).
How we checked
How the score was reached
- Partly verdict base52
- 3/3 assessment runs agreed+4
- Hard moats found in the evidence-3
- Evidence score53
The base comes from the verdict. Everything under it is a check that either happened or did not, and each one is a fact frozen in this record rather than a judgement made at render time - so the same evidence always produces the same number.
