Consumers welcome the use of biometrics as
faster, easier, and more secure alternatives to passwords
TORONTO, Jan. 10, 2018 /CNW/ - A new Visa survey of 1,000 Canadians exploring awareness and perceptions of biometric authentication confirms that consumers continue to have a strong interest in new biometric technologies that make their lives easier. New forms of authentication, such as fingerprint, facial, and voice recognition, can make unlocking accounts and payments much easier and more convenient than traditional passwords or PINs - which are difficult to type onto tiny keyboards, easy to forget, and can be stolen.
"Advances in mobile device technology is increasing the speed and accuracy of biometrics, such that they can be used for financial transactions," said Gord Jamieson, Head of Risk Services, Visa Canada. "This makes it the ideal time to integrate biometric technology into payments experiences for customers. At Visa, we are investing in the best ways to add these emerging technologies to our products and services."
Authentication Survey Findings
According to the Visa study conducted by AYTM Market Research, 85 per cent of Canadian consumers are interested in using biometrics to verify identity or to make payments, and six-out- of 10 (59 per cent) consumers are already familiar with biometrics.i Findings from the survey illustrate consumers' desire to see the implementation of biometric tools in payment authentication processes.
