CASHLESSNESS

Travellers want to try facial recognition technology to pay



Commuters are willing to use facial recognition technology that charge them each time they get on and off their mode of transport.

The technology has already become part of everyday life in China — in some cities it is used to verify commuters’ identities through camera technology installed at train stations.

Visa’s and Stanford University’s new Future of Transportation: Mobility in the age of the Megacity report, quizzed more than 20,000 people in 19 countries including Australia and found 54 per cent of Australians would be willing to try facial recognition or bluetooth technology when commuting.
