Passengers using Moscow Metro’s Line 4 services can now join a public pilot scheme to test the transport network’s FacePay biometric contactless ticketing system, according to NFC World.
The system enables passengers to pay their fares at metro station turnstiles using facial recognition technology to verify their identity and authenticate payment from their linked bank card.
The public trial follows testing by Moscow Metro staff and will initially involve a group of 1,000 passengers who sign up and register their details on the transit provider’s FacePay website.
