The privacy laws of certain countries require steps to be taken to verify your identity to ensure that the person providing parental consent is in fact an adult.
We operate several methods of verification depending on what country the parent is in.
Payment Card Verification (available globally outside of Russia and Belarus)
By collecting your payment card details and performing a successful monetary transaction, we will be able to verify your identity and confirm that you are an adult.
- If you are outside of the USA, no charge will be made to your card. Instead, a small amount will be temporarily authorised against your card and then automatically released. Consult the table below to see which amount applies in your country.
- If you reside within the USA, 50¢ (USD) will be charged to your payment card. This transaction will be refunded within 5-10 business days.
