Age Verification Requirement – Vapedeal
From 06/06/2023, it is mandatory to complete an age verification check to purchase products from Vapedeal.
You only need to verify your age once. After verification, you will not be asked to do this for every order.
In the UK, it is illegal to buy vaping products if you are under 18. Vapedeal is therefore required to verify the age of all customers before completing any sale.
This page explains why age verification is required and how we verify your age. More details can also be found in our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
If you’ve been directed here to complete the age verification form, you can skip directly to the form [here].
Why do we need to verify your age?
Vapedeal respects your privacy, but age verification is a legal requirement to protect minors. The following UK authorities enforce these regulations:
Department of Health & Social Care
Since 1 October 2015, it is illegal for anyone to buy (or attempt to buy) tobacco products or e-cigarettes for a person under 18.Trading Standards
Retailers are responsible for ensuring that age-restricted products are not sold online to anyone under the legal age.
How do we verify your age?
Account Age Verification
Vapedeal uses 1Account, a trusted third-party age verification system. 1Account checks your age against reliable UK data sources, which may include:
Credit records
Mobile phone number
UK electoral roll
UK birth register
The system performs as few checks as necessary. In most cases, your age will be verified instantly, and your Vapedeal order will proceed without delay.
Information required
To verify your age, we require:
Full name
Current address (your billing address is used)
Mobile phone number
In some cases, your date of birth may also be requested to assist the verification process. It’s important that your billing address matches your current home address.
What if age verification fails?
If 1Account cannot verify your age automatically, you will be asked to submit proof of age using the form below.
Important:
Only complete this form if:
You have just placed an order.
1Account verification failed during checkout.
The email address used on this form must match the email address associated with your Vapedeal account.
