One of our 2026 Bingo predictions is already checked off!

announced a new global user verification roll-out starting March 2026, requiring users to prove their age (via facial age estimation or government ID) to access full platform features and age-restricted spaces or stay in a “teen-by-default” experience until they do.

This move is more than a safety update! It signals a broader trend:
Continuous identity verification is becoming mainstream.

Platforms increasingly recognize that identity isn’t just confirmed once at sign-up, it needs ongoing validation to protect users, reduce fraud, and enforce appropriate access.

But it also raises the big questions we care about:

🔹 How do you balance security with privacy?
🔹 How do you verify identity without storing sensitive biometric data unnecessarily?
🔹 And how do you build systems users can trust?
That’s where truly privacy-preserving biometric verification matters. BioID provides identity solutions that improve security without compromising user trust — powering the future of safe digital experiences.

The 2026 BioID Bingo Card Is Open 🎯

The first weeks of the new year have shown one thing clearly: digital identity measures and topics will stay front and center in industry conversations throughout 2026. From discussions around AI-generated IDs and deepfake attacks to advances in liveness detection, regulatory developments, and measurable progress in identity assurance, the headlines and online debates are already lining up.

To kick off the year, we took a look at our Bingo Card for 2026.

It captures the topics we expect to see discussed, debated, and reported on as the year unfolds — and the ones we’ll likely be checking off sooner than we think.

Now we want to hear from you 👀
❓ What’s already on your bingo card for 2026?
❓Which squares do you expect to cross off first in the coming weeks?
❓And are there any headlines you think we’ve missed?

Here’s to a new year of meaningful discussions, shared insights, and building digital trust together.

As 2025 comes to a close, we want to say thank you.

It’s been a year shaped by innovation, recognition, and — most importantly — meaningful conversations with our community. Here’s a quick look back at what made 2025 special for BioID:

📍 Where we met you
From inspiring discussions at it-sa – Home of IT Security, to exploring trust, AI, and digital identity at TRANSFORM 2025, and deep technical exchanges during Biometrics Week — 2025 was full of conversations, handshakes, and shared insights. Add to that workshops, meetups, and industry gatherings across Europe, and one thing became clear: meeting clients, partners, researchers, and peers in person remains invaluable.

🏆 Highlights we’re proud of
• 99.7% success rate for liveness detection and PAD in an independent TÜVIT certification refresh (ISO/IEC 30107-3, FIDO-aligned)
• First worldwide to achieve 100% spoof attack detection in an advanced ISO/IEC 30107-3 Level C PAD test
• Continued real-world adoption of deepfake detection in identity verification
• Ongoing improvements in usability, scalability, and reliability across the BioID Web Service

Each milestone reflects close collaboration and a shared commitment to trustworthy digital identity.

🔮 Looking ahead
As digital identity evolves, so do expectations and threats. In the year ahead, we’ll continue focusing on accuracy, resilience, compliance, and transparency, while staying closely connected to the community that helps shape our direction.

Thank you for being part of our journey.

We wish you a peaceful holiday season and a confident, successful start to the new year.

Back in September, California advanced AB 1043, a law shifting age verification to the device operating system. (Source: Biometric Update)

Big Tech supports it. Hollywood is pushing back.

Two months later, the implications are becoming clearer.

Here’s what stands out for us at BioID:

❗Responsibility is moving upstream: Age assurance at the OS level changes how trust is built. For identity-tech providers, this signals a long-term shift toward ecosystem-embedded age signals.

❗Privacy and usability are taking priority: The law avoids mandatory ID uploads or heavy parental consent flows. This aligns with what we advocate at BioID: verify age brackets, not full identity.

❗Hollywood’s concerns show a UX gap: One universal device-level age signal could disrupt family profiles and content settings. Age assurance isn’t just a compliance issue, it’s a design challenge.

❗A likely global ripple effect: California often sets the tone. Expect more regions to explore OS-level age signaling as momentum grows.

❗Biometrics remain optional, but pressure is rising: AB 1043 relies on self-declared age at setup. But as platforms face increasing accountability, stronger proof-of-age methods will gain importance. This is where privacy-preserving biometrics can play a critical role.

At BioID, we believe responsible age assurance requires privacy-first design, transparent technology, and solutions that protect young users without over-collecting personal data.

What do you think?

Will the future lean toward simple age-bracket checks or stronger identity-based verification for minors? Which approach best balances safety, privacy and usability?

Dating apps are increasingly flooded with -generated faces so realistic, you might never know they’re fake. This surge in synthetic identities is reshaping the dating world, making it harder to distinguish genuine connections from digital illusions. And it's a fact that AI profiles are not just a trend but a growing concern. They can mislead users, facilitate , and erode trust in online interactions. As dating apps become more sophisticated, so do the tactics of those looking to deceive.

Age verification is not age estimation...

And the difference now has legal consequences.

While age estimation means only guessing the age of someone based on appearance or behavior, it can’t offer proof. It’s fast but flawed because it’s easy to bypass with a filter, VPN, or manipulated image.

Age verification, on the other hand, requires evidence. A verified government ID. A biometric selfie. Liveness detection to prevent spoofing.

And for the UK, this is no longer just best practice — it’s now the law. Under the newly enforced Online Safety Act, platforms that provide access to adult or potentially harmful content must implement robust age verification measures. Or they face fines of up to £18 million or 10% of global revenue. (Source: Tom’s Guide)

Self-declared ages or estimations won’t hold up.

That’s where BioID’s PhotoVerify comes in:

- Performs selfie-to-ID document matching
- Includes liveness detection to prevent deepfakes or image attacks
- Is privacy-first and GDPR-compliant
- Runs on a SaaS model for seamless platform integration

Whether you're operating in media, gaming, e-commerce, or social platforms, PhotoVerify helps you meet regulatory demands while protecting user privacy.

🎬 Don't you forget about me... Even decades later, we won't.

The cast of The Breakfast Club has come a long way since that unforgettable Saturday in detention. But even after nearly 40 years, our PhotoVerify technology had no trouble recognizing their faces.

We challenged our system to match their iconic 80s portraits with their current appearances. Despite decades of aging, different hairstyles, and changing expressions, the results were impressive.

With the highest accuracy levels, PhotoVerify identified each actor with ease.

Curious how well it works on your younger self?

Head to our Playground and put it to the test: www.bioid.com/playground/
