One of the biggest challenges essential workers face each day is being immersed in the general public. They’re handling vast amounts of physical payment, goods, and sharing close proximity with hundreds to thousands of people per day. Keyo has come up with some ideas on how we can make worker safety a top priority.
Keyo partnered with a large credit card and smart vending company on two innovative marketing experiences for payments and ticketing.
The Keyo 1.0 enrollment terminals were used to enroll event attendees in Keyo and integrated with smart vending machines. Once users registered their palm with Keyo, they were free to use their palm to pay for prizes at vending machines around the event.
This experience has led us to two possibilities for enhancing essential worker protection:

Who benefits from contactless payment?
Companies that work with the general public every day and depend on or prefer in-person payment processing. Think of brick-and-mortar stores or local businesses competing against eCommerce giants, restaurants that want to safely reopen to full capacity, and the hospitality industry.
Who benefits from contactless ticketing?
Companies that put on large events or are themselves the location for events: ticketing companies, concert venues, sports stadiums, theaters.
Additionally, theme parks that need quick, accurate identification to allow large amounts of people inside their grounds. With palm vein biometric technology, more people can get through the turnstiles easily and safely.
While biometric authentication can seem intimidating or something out of a sci-fi movie, it has the power to protect our most vulnerable workers and society as a whole. At Keyo, we believe that biometric solutions should be available and affordable to everyone.
That's why we're working towards making our biometric platform as user-friendly and developer-friendly as possible. Our integration capabilities make Keyo extremely accessible and we're excited to share its details with the public in the near future.
