Original Abstract Submitted
shoppers install a software app on a mobile device and create a user profile. the shopper scans a fingerprint using a fingerprint sensor. scanned fingerprint data is wirelessly transmitted to the shopper's mobile device for re-transmission over the internet for storage in a secured server. the shopper can add payment methods (credit cards, debit cards, etc.) to the user's profile. participating merchants registered with the payment system provide a fingerprint sensor at the point of sale. a shopper transacts purchases at a merchant's location by placing a finger on the fingerprint sensor. scanned fingerprint data is transmitted over the internet to confirm the identity of the shopper, and to complete the transaction. a shopper makes purchases online using the installed software app. participating merchants integrate apis with existing e-commerce platforms, allowing merchants to charge and/or request access to user payment accounts.
