Thames Technology's biometric card solution, developed in collaboration with IDEX Biometrics, provides unsurpassable security of payment transactions alongside a simple and yet enhanced customer experience. We can help you set yourself apart from the competition by offering innovative payment solutions to enhance your new or existing offering.
Consumers can enjoy the benefits of seamless and secure transactions, issuers can gain a competitive edge through innovation, and merchants can streamline their operations while reducing costs associated with chargebacks, it's a win-win for everyone!
Very few technical changes are needed for card issuers, so adoption of biometric payment cards can be quick, simple and affordable. No PIN or password is required and the cards are accepted at all Visa and Mastercard terminals.
Equipped with biometric authentication technology, contactless cards enable seamless and secure payment experiences for any purchase amount and can be used to make both contactless and contact payments. In addition, biometric cards are available as both recycled PVC (rPVC) and metal cards.
Upon receiving their biometric card, cardholders register their fingerprint via an app or sleeve. During this process, the digital fingerprint image is securely stored on the card to protect cardholder's data and remove the risk of fraud attacks.
During the transaction the cardholder simply places the registered finger on the sensor and taps the card on the payment terminal. If required, PINs can still be issued for ATM usage and initial card activation.
The fingerprint placed on the sensor is compared with the stored template held on the chip and, if matching, card use is securely authenticated.
