StoreNext [ Fujitsu ] and Pay By Touch Simple touch of a finger. --   May 5, 2005
Pay By Touch's fingerprint payment technology will be available soon in independent grocery stores, thanks to an agreement with StoreNext Retail Technologies, which plans to resell the Pay By Touch hardware, software, and interfaces to independent retailers.
The joint solution will allow shoppers to pay for purchases with the simple touch of a finger.

When checking out, customers place their fingers on a biometric scanner that authenticates them while linking to their financial and loyalty accounts.
Pay By Touch also offers a quick, accurate way to check age verification and automates the loyalty program.

The privately-held company offers retailers a complete payment solution, from front-end biometric authentication, age verification, and check cashing to back-end payment processing for ACH, debit card, and credit card transactions
