In the last year or so, many countries around the world have introduced mandatory age verification – the UK's Online Safety Act, House Bill 2112 in Arizona, and Australia's recent social media laws introduced in March 2026 – not to mention the UK's upcoming social media ban for under-16s.
Almost all of these laws require individual websites and apps to verify their own users' age, and AgeGo is one of the most common third-party age-assurance companies used by these websites.
