An eftpos operator is rolling out new payment terminals capable of identifying customers through their face or hands. The technology will soon enable people to pay for everyday purchases, such as a cup of coffee, using facial identification instead of traditional payment cards or mobile devices.[1][2]
The rollout of facial and palm recognition at checkout terminals has sounded alarm bells regarding privacy and security. As consumers prepare for the option to pay with their face or hands, questions remain about whether shoppers should adopt biometric payment technology.[1][2]
