J.P. Morgan and PopID Roll Out Biometric Payments Across the U.S.

Hey Payments Fanatic!

J.P. Morgan Payments is expanding its relationship with PopID to deploy in-store biometric payments to pilot merchants across the United States.

Shoppers can complete transactions using pay-by-face biometrics, without pulling out their phones or credit cards.

Biometric payments enable shoppers to pay by smile to complete transactions seamlessly, without phones or credit cards, ensuring a simplified, secure and hassle-free checkout experience for both merchants and customers.

Once a shopper is enrolled in the service, they can enjoy biometric payments when they walk through the door of participating merchants.

PopID's research shows this system reduces checkout times by up to 90 seconds and increases ticket size by 4%.

Now over to you: How do you think about biometric payments?

Cheers,

Marcel
