Charlie's Holdings licenses AI/blockchain age-gating tech to block underage vape access, with a 100% success rate in tests.
Charlie's Holdings has licensed a new AI and blockchain-powered age-gating system from IKE Tech to prevent underage access to vape products, aiming to meet FDA safety goals.
The system uses biometric Bluetooth verification to continuously confirm user age, with a study showing 100% of adults passed verification and no underage users succeeded.
Charlie's will test the technology this spring on its SBX product line and integrate it into PACHA-branded devices, gaining three-year exclusivity for age-gated nicotine analogues.
The move comes as flavored vapes remain largely banned in the U.S., fueling illicit markets and limiting adult access to lower-risk alternatives.
