BBVA launches biometric credit card in Mexico

 

Customers of BBVA Mexico can now apply for a ‘blank’ biometric credit card that enables them to authenticate payments with their fingerprint.

It has a fingerprint reader, which when you bring the card to the point of sale terminal, you put your thumb on the reader and, without having to enter the PIN when making the payment, authenticates purchases in the safest way.

BBVA Mexico is initially making the Smart Key card available to patrimonial and private banking clients, but says that it aims to give all clients access to the means of payment of the future.
