– To make purchases online simply put his face. MasterCard is testing a new payment system that will replace the use of passwords with a simple selfie. “The new generations are used to take pictures, will find it funny,” said Ajay Bhalla, that deals with the technological development of the company. It will not be just a fun novelty, but also safer. Passwords can be forgotten in fact, stolen or intercepted. The selfie instead turns into an algorithm that will be sent via Internet to MasterCard. Just download an App that allows you to authorize payment via facial recognition. The new security system will be tested on a sample of 500 customers, but the company hopes in the future to be able to apply to the whole circuit of payments.
In addition to selfie you can also use fingerprints, but innovations do not stop there. Bhalla reveals that MasterCard is working on a voice recognition system. Also in the pipeline it is a project developed by a Canadian company that will allow the identification of the person through the heart rate.
