Preventing Children from placing orders

With all the new laws out there, our organization needs to protect itself from underage children placing orders on line with credit cards. Is there a way to possibly add a check off box disclaimer on the checkout page ? Or does someone have another thought for having customers check a box as to whether they are of age to place an order on line with a credit card and where you might place this within ZenCart?

Re: Preventing Children from placing orders

In most jurisdictions card issuers won't issue cards to people who are underage as any resulting debts are unenforceable, so possession of a card is sufficient evidence that they are not underage. Unless of course it's not their card they're using, in which case a tick box doesn't really seem like much protection.

That said, this FAQ entry might prove useful.
