Handwave and Visa announce a partnership
Partnership Provisional 78% confidence first seen
Handwave announced an expanded agreement with Visa to integrate Visa technologies into Handwave’s palm-based biometric payment platform for secure card onboarding. The collaboration enables tokenisation and authentication using Visa’s Decision Manager for real-time monitoring, and includes support for market development and enabling the solution within the Visa Acceptance Platform; production deployments are expected within the year. The deal matters because it aims to make biometric palm payments more scalable and compliant across European markets while enabling faster, more secure checkout for users and merchants.
