Abstract
In one aspect, a method is provided for making a transaction, the method including receiving, at a merchant system: a basket for purchase; and a unique code identifying a user. The method also includes reading, using the merchant system, one or more biomarkers from the user and identifying, from a database, a stored code corresponding to the unique code and one or more stored biomarkers corresponding to the one or more biomarkers. The method further compares: the one or more biomarkers with the one or more stored biomarkers associated with the corresponding stored code; or, the unique code with the stored code associated with the one or more stored biomarkers. If there is a match, a transaction based on the basket for purchase is made using a payment vehicle associated with the corresponding stored code; or, if there is no match, the transaction is declined.
