BBVA Launches Facial Recognition Payments
BankingTech
“In the latest development, testing has begun on a facial recognition system based on technology from the start-up Veridas, a joint venture of BBVA and Das-Nano in 2017. Guillermo Sánchez, who heads the project for BBVA’s global payments team, says: “It’s fast, secure, and will fundamentally change the ways people pay for goods and services – literally taking things at face value.” Customers in the bank’s restaurants have to smile (“or not, depending on their mood”) at a camera booth next to the cash registers, and provided they have registered, the system identifies them and automatically bills the customer for the purchase.”
