Platform

The infrastructure
behind palm payments.

Palms develops the technology and infrastructure required to enable palm-based payments in real-world environments. The platform combines biometric identity and matching, bank connectivity, merchant integration and dedicated terminals into a single infrastructure layer.

Platform architecture

From enrollment to settlement in three layers.

Biometric layer

Enrollment

Palm template created and securely stored

Matching

Presented palm verified against template

Palms infrastructure

Integration

Verification data exchanged with the bank

Acceptance

Terminal and merchant infrastructure

Secure bank boundary

Authorization

The bank authorizes the transaction

Settlement

The bank executes the payment

Raw biometric data never leaves the biometric layer. The bank receives verification results only.
