“Can biometric authentication (face and palm) become the universal identity and payment layer connecting any POS, loyalty program, card network, fintech wallet, BNPL platform, and stablecoin globally?”
PopID began as a biometric identity and loyalty authentication platform, enabling face and palm scan-based authentication at the point of sale. Over time, it has expanded beyond loyalty into biometric payment authentication, partnering with major payment networks (Visa) and payment hardware providers (Verifone) to build open-loop, globally interoperable biometric payment infrastructure. The 2025 equity financing — with backing from PayPal, Visa Ventures, and Chipotle's Cultivate Next — signals a strategic push to connect POS solutions to any loyalty program, card payment method, fintech wallet, BNPL platform, stablecoin product, or pay-by-bank scheme via biometrics.
