    This page is super helpful if you want to learn about Yoti's Digital IDs which you can apply for personally and use yourself at cinemas, shops, 18+ gaming premises etc. (location dependent!).

    If you already have a digital ID can you use that for here? I was thinking for accessibility testing purposes for myself

    @Katie i only have college ID card
    Sometimes when the people most like you don't love you, it is a hurt that can cause the greatest pain, and this pain can lead you to hate everything.

    @independent_ Our answer right now is that we'll only be able to verify ages through Yoti. This is because our discussion board users will be taken to the external site of our supplier (Yoti), which is where the age estimation takes place. It doesn't take place on our website. Yoti's site will be where you either take a photo of yourself or a photo of your ID.

    @Rose113 In cases where people don't have ID, to verify their age we would encourage them to take a photo of themselves instead. This is because the two options to verify your age will either be to take a photo of yourself or your ID :)

    And to be clear: No one at The Mix or MHI will ever see your photo or ID. Yoti’s system only sends us an age estimate.
