MyCheckr, a tool to assist cashiers in selling alcohol, tobacco, and energy drinks
MyCheckr is a device that helps staff decide when to ask a customer for identification. It anonymously estimates the age of the person in front of the camera and indicates on the screen whether manual verification is recommended. The decision to make the sale is still made by the employee, and it is based on verification of the customer’s identification.
A problem every store manager is familiar with
At the register, it’s rarely just about the sale and the receipt. At the same time, the cashier is making coffee, preparing a hot dog, handing out and accepting packages, and managing the line. In the midst of all this, it’s easy to automatically process a transaction that requires an age check.
On top of that, there’s employee turnover. New employees don’t always remember that alcohol, tobacco products, and energy drinks require age verification. MyCheckr reminds them of this every time, regardless of their tenure or how busy the store is.
How MyCheckr Works
The device analyzes the person in front of the camera and displays the result on the screen in a fraction of a second.
🟢A green screen with a message stating that document verification is not recommended; the customer appears to be older than the set threshold
🔴A red screen with a message stating that it is recommended to check the document
It’s a clear signal that the cashier can see at a glance. There’s no need to read or interpret anything. Green means go ahead. Red means ask for ID.
By default, and in accordance with its certification, the device operates in “Challenge 25” mode. It asks for identification from anyone who appears to be under 25, even though the legal age for sales is usually 18. This age buffer serves as a safety margin that protects the establishment from making a mistake.
What the screen shows
The screen is the main difference between MyCheckr and the Mini version. It serves as a clear, unambiguous message for staff.
- a large background color—green or red—visible from a distance and at an angle
- a text-based recommendation on whether to check the document
- real-time notification; the result appears immediately when the customer stands in front of the camera
In addition, the built-in LED repeats the signal with a color, so the message gets through even when the cashier is looking at the customer rather than at the screen. [TO BE VERIFIED] Does the screen offer display modes other than the colored message with a recommendation? The manufacturer’s materials primarily describe this scenario.
It's important to note what MyCheckr is not
MyCheckr does not replace the verification of identification and does not serve as the basis for a sale. Under Polish law, alcohol or tobacco products cannot be sold based solely on the decision of an age-verification device. If the screen displays a red light, the employee will ask for identification and, after verifying it, will decide whether to proceed with the transaction.
That is the intended role of this device. It relieves the cashier of the burden of making an initial assessment and serves as a reminder of the procedure, but the final decision always rests with the person and the document.
Why Do Business Owners Choose MyCheckr?
- Fewer errors during peak hours. The device alerts the cashier to the need for verification even when the cashier is multitasking.
- Support for new employees. With high turnover, MyCheckr ensures that procedures are followed for everyone, starting on their first day on the job.
- Less tension with customers. The employee doesn’t say, “I don’t like the way you look.” Instead, they provide an objective recommendation for a product. According to a 2022 report by the Association of Convenience Stores, enforcing age restrictions on sales is one of the main triggers of aggression toward staff.
- Proven accuracy. At its core is the ICU Lite module, which holds an independent Age Check Certification Scheme (ACCS) certification and has an average estimation error of less than one year (0.94). Humans make mistakes much more frequently; in studies, they incorrectly identify between 38 and 56 percent of 16-year-olds as adults.
- A one-time purchase, no subscription required. No recurring fees or cloud connections—you know the cost up front.
Privacy and GDPR Compliance
MyCheckr does not store photos or personal data. It processes images locally and operates offline, without an Internet connection. The assessment is anonymous and disappears once the result is displayed. This simplifies GDPR compliance and increases customer acceptance.
Where MyCheckr Works Best
- grocery and convenience stores with a high volume of transactions
- gas stations with food service and package handling at the checkout
- liquor stores, tobacco shops, and nicotine product retailers
- support stations near self-checkout areas, where a single cashier oversees several registers at once
At self-checkout lanes, MyCheckr lightens the load for the supervising employee. Instead of running between stations and assessing each customer on their own, they receive a clear signal indicating which checkout lane requires their intervention and document verification.

either 12 months or the specified number of cycles.
The warranty does not cover damage resulting from improper use, the use of non-original parts or consumables, or devices that have exceeded their declared cycle lifespan.
Before sending a device for warranty service, it is recommended to check the cycle count and contact the seller or an authorized ITL service center to confirm eligibility for repair.
Warranty repairs are carried out exclusively in authorized ITL service centers or in the manufacturer’s technical departments.
