This Biometric Device Replaces All Your Membership And Credit Cards

In our need to make life simpler and carry less, we’ve swapped coins and banknotes for credit cards. Most of us carry from 2 to 4 cards daily but the problem is they can be easily forgotten, stolen and our bank accounts taken advantage of. So, with today’s technology, companies have made it their mission to offer something more secure… and what’s safer than our fingerprints? The Touché biometric device has just launched, as an alternative to services like Samsung and Apple Pay #biomagic

This device is larger than your smartphone, granted, but claims to be the first biometric loyalty and payment platform. That means that from this day on you can leave all your cards – credit, loyalty, membership – at home.  The Touché device makes use of your fingerprints – two of them – to pay your bills and check in places.

The biometric system involves a magnetic stripe reader, chip reader, and a 2.2-inch biometric fingerprint sensor. According to the company, it delivers the highest resolution in the market for fingerprint authentication and payment. It’s capable of extracting up to 45 specific points of each fingerprint. 

Before the first biometric payment, users have to register and use the Touché platform to associate the credit card with their fingerprints. These are extremely hard to replicate, thanks to the company’s live detection technology. The images are encrypted on a cloud system, so it will definitely give hackers a bit of a headache. The credit card info is tokenized, impossible to reverse and decipher.

Users can also add details online to form a profile that will allow them to make future payments or requests easier to all Touché merchants already visited.
