"Biometrics is becoming more than just a technology from the future, it has become our everyday life. Now you can pay for groceries in the store at home with one look. It is pleasing how quickly this technology is gaining popularity. Less than a year has passed, and from piloting the project in Moscow coffee shops we moved to retail stores in the regions. I am sure this is only the beginning, and in the near future such a payment method will be more popular than payment by card or cash, "said Dmitry Malykh, director of the Acquiring division of Sberbank.
