Russia-based bank Sberbank has announced rolling out a facial recognition service that will let customers pay for their groceries with just a glance.
Sberbank has partnered with supermarket chain Magnit and plans to connect 100 stores in Moscow and Krasnodar to the service by June 2021. A pilot program is already running in ten shops. Sberbank customers must activate facial recognition for their account and choose the ‘pay with a glance’ option at checkout to access the service.
The Moscow metro is launching a similar service in 2021, Face Pay, to quicken the flow of people.
