VOVE ID Recognized by Germany’s KJM for Secure Age Verification
VOVE ID officially recognized by Germany’s KJM for secure age verification, combining document checks and biometrics for trusted digital onboarding.
A milestone in digital trust and compliance
VOVE ID has been officially recognized by Kommission für Jugendmedienschutz (KJM), Germany’s Commission for the Protection of Minors in the Media, as a positively rated Age Verification System (AVS).
This acknowledgment confirms that VOVE ID’s verification technology meets KJM’s criteria for preventing minors from accessing age‑restricted digital content, while ensuring secure, privacy‑compliant identity verification.
About KJM and the evaluation
KJM enforces the Interstate Treaty on the Protection of Minors in the Media (JMStV), and periodically evaluates technical solutions to determine whether automated systems can reliably confirm a user’s age without in‑person checks.
In its November 2025 decision, KJM positively assessed VOVE ID’s verification module, noting that automated document verification and biometric face matching, when properly implemented, can be equivalent to an in‑person ID process for age verification purposes.
How VOVE ID ensures reliable verification
VOVE ID combines document verification, biometric face comparison, and AI‑driven liveness detection to confirm a user’s identity within seconds.
The system supports over 100 document types across jurisdictions, and delivers high precision in anti‑spoofing checks, enabling businesses to comply with regulatory requirements without compromising user experience.
For content providers in Germany, this recognition provides a regulator‑backed component to include in compliance frameworks. For partners outside Europe, it demonstrates that VOVE ID’s technology meets stringent standards applied by major regulators.
Why this matters
Age verification is not only a compliance requirement, it is a question of responsibility and trust.
As digital platforms expand, regulators are increasing expectations around reliable identity assurance and AML‑aligned controls. KJM’s positive evaluation of VOVE ID highlights how modern, automated verification can satisfy both regulatory scrutiny and user convenience, helping businesses manage risk while protecting minors.
Looking ahead
VOVE ID will continue to roll out compliance‑ready identity solutions for regulated industries such as Fintech, digital wallets, iGaming, and online marketplaces.
This milestone reinforces the company’s mission to enable secure digital onboarding wherever trust and regulation matter.
