Handwave

Par uzņēmumu

Handwave is a deep-tech fintech company specializing in palm-based biometric authentication and payment solutions. Their platform uses proprietary technology to scan both palm surface patterns and subdermal vein structures to create a secure, encrypted digital ID. This allows users to pay, verify their age, and access loyalty programs with a simple hand gesture, eliminating the need for physical cards or phones. By offering a contactless and privacy-focused alternative to facial recognition, they aim to reduce friction in retail environments. The company operates as a Biometrics-as-a-Service provider, partnering with global networks like Visa to scale their technology.
