bunq's banking app will now use VeridiumID and its groundbreaking hand recognition software, 4 Fingers TouchlessID (4 Fingers).
With their collaboration, Veridium and bunq present a world first in the financial sector to address consumers' need for fast, easy-to-use and safe mobile banking.
By capturing all four fingerprints at once, 4 Fingers has a higher level of precision and reliability for authentication than other biometrics such as face, voice or a single fingerprint.
bunq CEO and founder Ali Niknam said: "Our commitment to giving people control over their money again requires the latest technology and biometric authentication solutions. With 4 Fingers we guarantee an easy-to-use and safe banking experience in which users have access to real-time data."
Veridium COO Todd Shollenbarger said: "I believe bunq's banking platform is a market disruptor and we are delighted that bunq selected our biometric authentication solution to play such a critical function.
"VeridiumID is flexible, secure and extendable, allowing bunq to scale to millions of users across Europe as it continues to expand its country coverage."
