Copenhagen Business School pilots finger vein payments

In collaboration with Smart Payments and Fingopay, Nets has installed finger scanners at Copenhagen Business School's (CBS) cafeteria check-outs. Those with a Dankort, the Danish domestic card scheme, can take part in a pilot, linking the unique pattern of veins in their fingers to their accounts. 

“The pilot underway at CBS demonstrates how fast payments technology is developing. In 2017 we launched Dankort on the mobile using brand new technology, and now only one year later customers can become their Dankort themselves,” says Jeppe Juul-Andersen, Vice President of the Dankort sector, Nets. “We are excited to see how card holders find the finger vein payment experience. If they react positively, we will consider launching pilot schemes in other Nordic countries as well.”
