the supermarket is charged with the imprint
pilot project in the Dutch chain Albert Heijn. It starts from the branch of Breukelen, near Utrecht
UTRECHT (Netherlands) - The daily shopping at the supermarket is more and more business. While we get angry at the rise of pasta, meat or vegetable, what makes us really nervous is the tail that are always waiting at the cash.
[my note:? comecome? Forced sodomy is not what bothers us but the time it takes to endure it? BUT HOW YOU PUT SHIT!??]
But now spending becomes fast, convenient and safe. The solution for faster time payment comes from the Netherlands. Payment is by reading fingerprints: the index on the appropriate unit and the transfer is completed.
EXPERIMENT - Cash, paper, Pin and signature are no longer needed. The Dutch supermarket chain Albert Heijn '(more than 750 outlets) kicked off Tuesday in the pilot project called "Tip2Pay. The customer goes to checkout and place just a fingertip on the appropriate reader. Upon presentation of an ID and a credit card, will run a scan of two prints of the left and right hands and the simultaneous recording of information about the name, address and account number and, where appropriate, the paper points. The experimental project started by a subsidiary of Breukelen, near Utrecht, and will last six months, after which - if you will be welcomed, will be extended nationally, said it "Albert Heijn".
PRIVACY - "On the first day there were already a hundred people," said the spokesman for the group Elf van Dijk to the newspaper "NRC Handelsblad". "We were really surprised that those few were very skeptical and are the most enthusiastic young people." In addition, the data collection takes place in full compliance with Dutch regulations on the protection of personal data, "added the spokesman.
METRO - Equens The company will handle the processing of all payments made using this biometric technique. The Dutch chain is currently testing other methods of payment innovation, such quellocol phone, reading through biometric scanning and mobile contactless payment technology. The German giant "Metro" is testing in some branches from May to pay by fingerprints.
