Market Overview
Biometric authentication is used by biometric payment systems, a point-of-sale (POS) technology, to speed up transactions and payments. A type of point-of-sale method known as biometric payment uses biometric authentication to identify the customer or end-user and allow the fund withdrawal from their bank account. Furthermore, the most popular type of biometric payment is a fingerprint. The development of complex biometric authentication technologies like palm recognition, eye recognition, and others has occurred in addition to the fingerprint biometric authentication technique. However, because of the ease of use and relative affordability of fingerprint identification systems, biometric payments made possible by fingerprint authentication technologies are most widely employed in the market. A method that enables identification using many identifying modalities, such as the fingerprint, iris, palm, etc., all from a single biometric payment terminal, has been made possible by technological improvements is the multi-modal biometric payment terminal system.
The biometric payments industry has grown significantly during the previous four years in terms of value.

Restraints
- Information breach
Payment using biometric means is debatable. Historically, law enforcement has been linked to fingerprint scanners. Critics of biometric payment are concerned that law enforcement or governmental organizations may have access to fingerprint sensors. However, biometric payment service providers rapidly clarify that their databases do not contain the customer's actual fingerprint. The point-to-point measurements of the finger are used to generate an encrypted integer that they store.
Instead of using the actual fingerprint, that number is utilized to confirm a customer's identification. The bottom line is that a biometric payment system, like any system that accesses private data, is only as safe as the databases and transactions it is linked to.
Opportunities
- Implementing new technologies to improve the customer payment experience
Global providers of biometric payment cards are constantly integrating innovative technologies to enhance the payment experience for customers. For instance, the second-generation T-Shape sensor module from biometric business Fingerprint Cards met Mastercard's stricter security requirements in January 2022. With greater security, this technology made payment processing simple and convenient for both customers and businesses. As a result, these technological developments create several possibilities for the market's future expansion.
Challenges
