But how do they verify that you are the name on the Credit Card without photo evidence? Could I just grab my parents card and say its mine?


Yes, but parents have better reasons to stop their kids from seeing their credit card details than age verification...


I'm not sure what your point is in relation to the discussion, of course they do.

But the discussion was around being able to use a credit card to verify that you're over the age of 18. My point being is that a credit card doesn't have a photo to verify that you are who the persons name is on the card.
