Biometric payment cards with an integrated fingerprint sensor make contactless payments more convenient, more secure and hygienic. The contactless card remains in the hands of the cardholder throughout the entire payment transaction, while eliminating the need for PIN entries or signatures to authorize even high-value payments.
Infineon Technologies and Fingerprint Cards have joined forces to enable mass deployment of this emerging solution.
The world leaders for security controller in contactless payment and for fingerprint sensors, including their related software, aim to provide card makers with biometric semiconductor solutions which make integration particularly cost-efficient and scalable.
The fingerprint information is stored on the card’s embedded secure element and not shared with any third party, thus protecting the user’s credentials.
