Bank of Lanzhou in China, has rolled out ATMs assimilating finger vein authentication technology from Japan’s OKI Vendor.
Bank of Lanzhou has deployed Recycler G7 machines – OKI’s ATM following a trial, which include a finger vein authentication module co-developed by Mofiria.
Japan’s OKI Vendor says that using vein patterns to identify customers is more secure than fingerprints and also minimises the calculations required for authentication.
The deal is OKI’s first for finger vein ATMs in China, but the technology is widespread in Japan, where tens of thousands of machines now require customers to scan their hands to access their cash.
