Abstract
A vehicle includes a communication interface, a sensor configured to detect biological information for a user of the vehicle, and a controller configured to perform electronic payments. The controller receives authentication information from a first terminal apparatus using the communication interface and acquires the biological information from the sensor when a first authentication using the received authentication information succeeds. The controller acquires authorization information indicating authorization to perform an electronic payment for the user, who is associated with the authentication information, when a second authentication using the acquired biological information succeeds.
