As Maxim Liksutov reported, a single trip using biometrics costs 63 rubles. For comparison, payment for a “Wallet” ticket is 4 rubles higher, and for a bank card – 11 rubles higher.
Biometrics in numbers:
more than 400 thousand users
over 160 thousand trips every weekday
156 million passes since the launch of the service
“Nowhere in the world is the most innovative biometric payment method developed on such a large scale and with such convenience as in Moscow. It is important that this is an absolutely secure service thanks to the banking level of protection. All data is securely encrypted. By the end of this year, at the request of Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin, we will connect all metro turnstiles to the face recognition payment service,” added Maxim Liksutov.
