Biometric payments refer to a technology-driven payment method that uses an individual's unique biological characteristics, such as fingerprints, facial recognition, or voice recognition, to authorize and verify secure transactions. This form of payment offers additional security and convenience compared to traditional payment methods like cards or cash, as it eliminates the need to remember passwords or PINs. Biometric payments leverage advanced biometric sensors and software to match an individual's biological features with the stored data to confirm their identity and approve the transaction.
