Introduction

In a significant partnership, Showcase Inc., a prominent provider of digital transformation cloud services, has launched its online age verification tool, ProTech ID Checker, for Davidoff of Geneva Japan, a high-end cigar brand. Founded in Switzerland, Davidoff is celebrated for its commitment to excellence in taste, quality, and brand image. This collaboration aims to streamline age verification processes on the brand's official website, ensuring compliance with legal standards while enhancing customer experience.

The Need for Improved Verification

As Davidoff prepared to revamp its online presence, the need for a more rigorous and smarter age verification system became apparent. Given that cigars are age-restricted products, proving that customers are at least 20 years old is crucial for regulatory compliance. Previously, Davidoff relied on manual visual checks for age verification, a process fraught with inefficiencies, including time consumption and the potential for human error. This prompted Davidoff to seek a more effective solution that would bolster both compliance and operational efficiency.

ProTech ID Checker: A Streamlined Solution

Showcase's ProTech ID Checker provides an ideal one-stop solution for accurate and efficient age verification. The tool boasts a strong track record of reliability, utilized by various enterprises, and is backed by substantial support during implementation. By adopting ProTech ID Checker, Davidoff has transitioned from traditional visual checks to an innovative system that incorporates OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology.

The new verification process involves capturing images of identification documents using OCR, which drastically reduces labor and enhances accuracy in age checks. Furthermore, the system utilizes an age-checking feature during the image capture process to block users under 20, thereby ensuring compliance without sacrificing customer protection. Moreover, this seamless verification experience leads to lower drop-off rates and enhances customer satisfaction, reinforcing Davidoff's stature as a trusted luxury brand.

Looking Forward

Showcase is committed to continuing to provide clear and user-friendly identification verification solutions through ProTech ID Checker, benefiting both businesses and consumers alike. This partnership not only elevates Davidoff's operational standards but also exemplifies how technological integration can enhance customer safety and satisfaction in the luxury goods market.
