Just wondering what others think of this. This is quite scary to me. We don’t shop at Whole Foods normally but if it goes well there, I’m sure it will go to other stores as well.

Doesn’t look like it’s the only way to pay, so I’m not going to worry about it.

If no two palms are alike, then I imagine it would be the most secure way to pay without cash.

If someone wants access to your payment method they would have to cut off your hand and hold it over the scanner.

The healthcare system I belong to actually uses a light to scan the veins in your hand. Too much healthcare fraud and this seems to help. Nobody sharing one insurance, no fake patients doctors bill.

Crooks are smart. I bet their is a hack around the system by the end of the year.
