American Express announced it is adding facial and fingerprint recognition to SafeKey to help prevent fraud and create a simple and intuitive online checkout process.
The company will roll out these biometric features through a new pilot program. Now, when using a device that supports facial or fingerprint recognition, select U.S. Card Members that checkout with SafeKey will be prompted to enable these biometric features. Safekey offers enhanced safety and ease to online transactions, making ID checks stronger, speedier and more intuitive.
