Abstract

Provided is a point-of-sale system for processing biometric inputs, comprising a fingerprint reader configured to receive a plurality of fingerprints simultaneously or substantially simultaneously, an input device configured to receive transaction data, a communication device, and at least one processor in communication with the fingerprint reader, the input device, and the communication device. The at least one processor is programmed or configured to generate at least one transaction message for a transaction based at least partially on a plurality of account identifiers corresponding to the plurality of fingerprints received by the fingerprint reader and the transaction data received by the input device, the at least one transaction message comprising an apportionment of the transaction value among the plurality of account identifiers, and communicate, with the communication device, the at least one transaction message to a transaction processing server. A system and method for processing biometric inputs are also disclosed.
