In a first for biometric payments in the UAE, Carrefour has implemented the Face Pay face verification platform for payments.
Customers of Carrefour stores in Deira and Amsaf can now make purchases by smiling at a payment terminal instead of pulling out a phone or card using Face Pay.
“Carrefour is ever keen to introduce new technologies that enhance the customer experience whilst finding solutions that can eliminate friction,” said Bernardo Perloiro, Chief Operating Officer – GCC at Majid Al Futtaim Retail. “Face verification will make it easier and more convenient for our customers to check out efficiently without having to reach for their wallets. This safe, seamless payment method only takes a few seconds, and we are excited to be one of the first retailers to be rolling this out across the UAE.”
