Mastercard showcased a similar technology in 2017
Will reduce contact points at POS terminals
Samsung and Mastercard have agreed to collaborate on making card payments even more secure. They are going to incorporate a fingerprint sensor into Samsung Cards to reduce contact points at in-store payment terminals. Although this appears to be similar to Mastercard s Biometric Payment Card that was showcased a few years ago, the new cards will use a more secure chipset from Samsung s System LSI business. These new biometric cards can be used at any Mastercard chip or POS terminal.
