Resorts are beginning to deploy solutions that provide customers with the ability to take a selfie with their device when reserving a room online. As part of Simpello's decentralized data technology, the facial template created from the selfie is then stored on the individual's phone, and only on their phone, along with a unique token.
Once the guest arrives at the hotel, there's no need for paper or electronic reservation confirmation. The guest simply approaches the check-in kiosk and presents their face to the camera. If the captured face matches the template on their phone and the correct token is read, the guest can check in and make room keys directly from the kiosk.
Similarly, within retail environments, when utilized at the POS level, a customer needs only to have their phone with them and present their face to pay.
