Viage ID Scanner for Bars & Retail, Driver's License Scanner for Age Verification, Portable, Stand Alone Magnetic Stripe Reader, Compatible in AL CO

The CAV2000 ID Scanner by Cardcom is a portable and standalone device that is designed for age verification and ID checking. It features a magnetic stripe reader, making it compatible with magnetic stripe formatted IDs. However, it is important to note that this model is not compatible with 2D barcode IDs, such as those used in Massachusetts and Florida. For those states, the CAV3200 model is recommended, as it can scan both magnetic stripe and barcode IDs. In terms of functionality, the CAV2000 can read most damaged and worn magnetic stripe ID cards. However, it may not be able to read IDs that have purposely been scratched out, such as fake IDs. The scanner will only read state-issued IDs that adhere to the AAMVA guidelines. In the case of fake licenses, it will either display an error or provide no response. While the CAV2000 is a basic and legitimate ID scanner, it does not require internet access to function. It is a reliable tool for checking IDs, but it is important to note that it may not be compatible with all states due to different ID formats. Customer reviews for the CAV2000 ID Scanner are mixed. Some customers have found it to be a useful tool for their businesses, such as checking IDs at a beer tent or gas station. However, there have been reports of the device not lasting very long, with one customer stating that it stopped working after only two months. One customer also mentioned receiving a used and non-functional device, prompting them to return it immediately. Overall, the CAV2000 ID Scanner by Cardcom is a convenient and portable device for age verification and ID checking. While it may not be compatible with all states and has received mixed reviews in terms of durability, it has proven to be effective in catching fake IDs and assisting with tobacco and alcohol sales.
