Amazon One's palm-scanning tech now verifies age for alcohol purchases.

Amazon One has launched a new age verification feature that allows customers to purchase alcoholic beverages by hovering their palm over an Amazon One device, without producing a physical government-issued ID. Coors Field, home of the Colorado Rockies Major League Baseball team, will be the first location to offer Amazon One’s age verification capability. The feature is available to customers who have already enrolled in Amazon One and uploaded a photo of their government-issued ID and a selfie. The bartender will see a “21+” message along with the customer-uploaded selfie on the screen when an enrolled customer who is of age hovers their palm over an Amazon One device.
