The solution allows the customers to log on to mobile banking services following successful facial authentication to provide convenient and secure user experience.

Dai Nippon Printing deputy general manager Kunimitsu Sato said: “In Japan, we have seen more and more consumers accessing financial services through their mobile device. But in the meantime, users are also increasingly concerned about security.

“By incorporating Gemalto’s facial recognition, the solution can bolster mobile banking security and provide a mobile authentication method customers love and trust. This should dramatically and significantly increase mobile banking usage.”

Nearly 68% of the banks are expected to deploy facial recognition over the next five years, found Gemalto’s 2017 eBanking Trends.
