We’re excited to announce the release of CB ID Verify, a powerful new standalone Joomla extension that brings secure, modern ID Verification capabilities to your website. Designed to help you comply with ID and Age Verification requirements without compromising SEO, performance, or user experience, CB ID Verify integrates trusted third-party services like Stripe Identity and Persona to deliver reliable verification wherever you need it on your site.
ID and age verification are becoming increasingly relevant online, and existing solutions often fall short by relying on CSS or JavaScript that can be easily bypassed. CB ID Verify addresses this head-on by replacing Joomla’s output buffer directly, ensuring that protected content is never delivered until verification has completed successfully.
Flexible Targeting Controls
Configure where and when verification is required using powerful include/exclude rules:
- Target by URL, menu item, Joomla extension, or individual articles
- Further refinement via IP ranges, country filtering, and even field-based criteria such as birthdate.
Customization and Seamless SEO
- Tailor text, font sizes, buttons, layout, and backgrounds to match your site.
- SEO integrity maintained. Meta descriptions, keywords, Open Graph, and other metadata continue to be output correctly even on pages requiring verification.
- All layouts are Joomla override-ready for full design control.
Benefits for Your Joomla Website
- Powered by industry-leading identity providers Stripe Identity and Persona, with sandbox mode for testing.
- Rock-solid protection against bypass techniques like CSS/JS tricks.
- Safe handling of verification. Personal data is processed by trusted services, and no sensitive ID data is stored on your server.
- Control exactly who must verify and when
