Cash is no longer king, according to Touch\u00e9, the revolutionary fintech company bringing payments to your fingertips.<\/strong> The Singapore-based company was founded in 2014 and has expanded globally, with offices in Barcelona, Tokyo, and Dubai. Touch\u00e9\u2019s flagship product features biometric-based identification to facilitate hassle-free payment solutions and automate entitlement privileges. Touch\u00e9 matches a hardware device with a software package to enable customers to authorise payments with a two-fingerprint biometric scan. Customers register by creating a Touch\u00e9 wallet, which consolidates the users\u2019 payment methods \u2014 from credit cards to cryptocurrency \u2014 as well as loyalty rewards programmes. The device sports a secure biometric sensor that\u2019s FBI-certified, and allows Touch\u00e9 to go beyond mere payment solutions. By combining industry and customer diagnostics, it gathers information for both sides. Customers can instantly claim points or discounts at the point of sale \u2013 without the need for vouchers or membership cards. Merchants can use the data analytics of consumer behaviour to compile comprehensive CRM databases, offer personalised recommendations, and create tailored rewards programmes. The CFI.co judging panel believes that biometrics will play a key part in the future of FinTech, and applauds Touch\u00e9 for its pioneering spirit. The judges present the company with the 2018 award for the Most Innovative Payment Authorisation Technology (Europe, Middle East, and Africa).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
