Another modern convenience for passengers has been launched in the Tashkent metro. Now, to use underground transport, you don't need a transport card or a smartphone - the fare is paid with your palm. The new system operates using biometric identification technology based on palmar vascular line recognition.
Veins in the palm - your new wallet
According to official data, this innovative solution is currently installed at 49 stations of the capital's metro. On average, 20-25 thousand passengers use this opportunity every day. Importantly, the registration process for using the system is very short - it takes about 5 minutes.
No queues and safe movement
According to experts, palm payment plays an important role in reducing queues at bus stops, accelerating the entry process, and saving passengers' time. Such solutions create great convenience, especially in emergency situations.
At the same time, the introduction of such technologies indicates an increasing level of digitalization of urban infrastructure. According to experts, this system will strengthen users' confidence in security, support initiatives in the fintech sector, and further represent Tashkent as a modern, innovation-oriented megacity.
In short, palm payment in the metro is not only a convenience, but also a vivid sign that the city is entering a new stage of life.
Have you already tried the palm payment system or still prefer to use traditional cards?
