A supermarket has offered its customers the choice of paying by fingerprint in the state of Washington. Surprisingly, people are willing to use this system.

Thrift way first introduced the system in its store in the Seattle area in 2008. At the very beginning, Thrift way decided to try it for only 60 days. However, "It was so popular with people, so after 60 days, we made it a formal method," Paul, Thrift way President said. Now there are thousands of people using this payment method every month.

The Finger-print System uses technology from Pay By Touch. Once people have recorded their fingerprints in the system, they can use it to pay for things. Then they choose a bank card they want to use and connect (连接) it to the store.

"We found many people came to the store because of this —lots of old people felt it safer not carrying money to the store," Paul said. "What are their fingerprints used for? That is what most people are worried about. But once our customers learned about our system, it was no longer a problem for them," he added.

Paul also said, "People don’t avoid trying the new technology. It is also good for our business. It costs the company only half the payment time."
