Getting Started

This guide will walk you through setting up your first age verification session with Bouncer.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have:

1. A Bouncer organization account
2. An API token (see API Tokens)

Integration Overview

Bouncer uses a simple redirect-based flow:

Your App → Create Session → Redirect User → Bouncer Verification → Redirect Back → Check Result

Quick Start

Step 1: Create a Session

Use the Create Session API to create a new verification session with:

• age_target: The minimum age to verify (e.g., 18)
• redirect_url: Where to send users after verification

Step 2: Redirect User

Redirect your user to the verify_url from the response. The user will:

1. See the verification page with your organization branding
2. Complete the liveness check (~3-5 seconds)
3. If needed, scan their ID document
4. Be redirected back to your redirect_url

Step 3: Check Result

Use the Get Session Status API to check if verification succeeded.

The success field will be:

• true - User passed verification
• false - User failed verification
• null - Verification still in progress
