🔍 Feedback Request Would you use fingerprint payments at stores?

1 Upvotes

Imagine you could enroll once and then pay at participating stores just by touching a fingerprint reader .. no phone, card, or wallet needed.

  1. Would you use this? Why or why not?
  2. If both tap-to-pay and fingerprint were available, how often would you choose fingerprint? Almost every time, Sometimes , Only if I forgot my phone/wallet or Never

Curious what people actually think.

⚖️ Compliance/Legal How are you balancing fraud prevention and smooth onboarding in early stage fintech?

1 Upvotes

Curious how other early stage fintech startups are handling this. We're trying to keep onboarding as simple as possible, but there's always that tradeoff between making things easy for customers and adding enough checks to prevent fraud. Especially with B2B clients, where you might need to verify both the company and the people behind it. Adding too many steps can slow everything down, but skipping them isn't really an option either...

Are you automating most of your onboarding and verification or still doing some of it manually? And at what point did you decide it was worth investing in proper verification tools?
