Introducing Uniqul, a payment system that uses facial recognition software to let customers pay for purchases without the need for cash, a credit card, a wallet or mobile phone.

The Finland-based company is getting ready to release the system in the Helsinki area. The system works with a Uniqul tablet placed at check-out stations. The tablet would take a photo of the customer’s face as they approach and would retrieve the customer’s account by processing their biometrical data. The customer would need to press ‘OK’ on the tablet to complete the purchase.


Uniqul uses military grade algorithms to ensure the security of their system and has made sure to create a user-friendly interface. Customers can use any major card when registering a payment method. Customers also need to pay a monthly subscription fee to use the payment system.
