19 Biometric Payment Innovations

From Palm Print Payment Services to Biometric Credit Cards

— September 16, 2015 — Tech
Biometric payment innovations are adding sophisticated elements to daily transactions in a secure manner. Whether in the form of palm print payment services or facial recognition technology, it is evident that financial professionals are shifting toward the incorporation of physical elements.

Several ends of the banking sector are benefiting from the inclusion of bodily cues within the transferring and storing of money. This can be seen in a plethora of biometric-themed credit cards, ATM's and wearables, though up-and-coming applications are launching into new, emerging sectors.

In addition to focusing on expediency, features central to this tech-savvy market satiate a growing appetite for enhanced security. By tailoring this demand to individual users, this shift is also meeting a pressing demand for customization.
