$SMME - The recent news from the company has shown us that SmartMetric management is very much in-tune with the new requirements that consumers will have in respect to increased safety in the pandemic era we face today. It is very reassuring to read how the SmartMetric team is adapting its advanced biometric technology to meet these challenges.
From the May 15th SMME PR:
“SmartMetric sees that Covid-19 will cause a rethink across all areas that have public touch points ushering in a total rethink on how consumers will interact with devices including the processing of their credit card at a checkout," said today Chaya Hendrick, SmartMetric’s President and CEO.
The SmartMetric fingerprint activated dual interface credit and debit cards, having both contact insertion into a card reader along with contactless RFID/NFC wireless reading, use biometrics to provide a much higher level of card security to that of PIN based cards. At the same time the card's enhanced security that stops the card from being able to be used unless there is a 100% fingerprint match with the card user's fingerprint, provides Banks with a much safer card platform. Even the card's RFID/NFC contactless feature is only activated following the biometric fingerprint match.
Using biometrics that are built into the card delivers a quantum leap in card security while now making contactless card payments even safer than the standard credit card. This means that Banks can now rethink the transaction dollar amount limit now in place on contactless credit and debit cards. With a card that can now only be used by the person the card is issued to, contactless “no pin pad touch” transactions can be safely used by the consumer while mitigating card fraud for the Banks.
