Zwipe Access is a card-based fingerprint access control solution. Zwipe Access doesn’t require an additional biometric reader because fingerprint capture, feature extraction, and biometric comparison are performed within the Zwipe Access card.
Zwipe Access enables two-factor authentication with biometrics without the need of an additional fingerprint reader, where the card verifies the cardholder identity, and the access control system verifies the card’s authenticity and integrity.
From a wear and tear perspective, how resilient and robust is a biometric payment card?
A biometric payment card follows the same standards for resilience and robustness as a standard dual-interface (non-biometric) payment card, meaning that it has a product lifetime of 3 to 5 years.
Zwipe's offering is a unique mix of products and services enabling our customers to integrate biometrics easily and seamlessly in payment and access control products with a wide range of enrolment solutions. Our focus on user experience and live-environment piloting have given us an edge in tailoring our product offering to our growing customer network.
Zwipe is a pioneer in the field of biometric payments, access control and ID, focusing on cards and wearables. Our customers choose Zwipe because of a combination of technology and performance leadership and an end-to-end, one-stop shop offering. We are dedicated to adding value to our customers thanks to our full focus on biometric authentication for payment and access control and ID. As a result of this, the company has built a strong network of customers and partners across the payment and access control & ID ecosystems.
Our flagship payment platform features a single silicon secure element which integrates into one chip the many components that were needed on previous generation biometric payment cards. This radically reduces technology and manufacturing costs, while also improving performance and reliability.
What biometric performance does Zwipe Access achieve?
False Accept Rate (FAR) / and False Reject Rate (FRR) exceed payment scheme specifications (VISA and Mastercard). The FRR is comfortably below 3% for 0.01% FAR (1:10,000). The algorithm also provides presentation attack detection (“anti-spoofing”), per latest payment scheme requirements.
