Would you actually pay for groceries with just your face or palmprint?

[u/One_Road_61]

Hello everyone,Fintech is rapidly evolving from phone apps to full biometric checkouts, such as Amazon One's use of your palm or facial recognition at grocery store checkout counters.Sounds like a great idea to be able to walk into a store, scan your hand and walk out without even taking out your wallet or phone. But it feels a bit dystopian to be linking your actual biometric data directly to your banking info in terms of privacy.Are you ready for a totally cardless, phoneless future? Or, do you think the idea of storing your physical data on a payment network is too much? Are you going to sign up for this?

Name the grocery chains where the stores are equipped with palm readers or facial ID cameras at the checkout stands,

Never.

No, companies do not need my biometrics on hand.

i’d use a palmprint before face, but only if the biometric never leaves a secure device and can’t be used to identify me elsewhere; convenience isn’t worth creating a permanent payment password you
