WOODBURY, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Patron Points (www.patronpoints.com), a leader in convenience store loyalty and mobile app development has partnered with Vroom Delivery (www.vroomdelivery.tech), a digital commerce platform for convenience stores, to offer single sign-on age verification across their platforms. With this partnership, a customer is able to age verify one time in their convenience stores mobile app and seamlessly order their favorite items including age restricted items like tobacco and alcohol for delivery through Vroom.

The partnership with Vroom offers Patron Points mobile app users the ability to age verify one time, removing barriers for the customer while allowing the retailer to stay in compliance and prevent underage access to age restricted products.

Online ordering and delivery customers can now enjoy the same loyalty deals and rewards points as those shopping in-store. Additionally, we are simplifying the process for Patron Points app users with a seamless single sign-on (SSO) integration that enables automatic registration of essential details such as name, phone number, email, loyalty account, and even age and identity verification (EAIV) status, enhancing convenience and ensuring compliance for retailers offering age restricted products online.” Jeffrey Nelson
