Whether using the mobile phone for near field communications (NFC) payments at a checkout or using the phone for person-to-person mobile payments, secure authentication and purchase authorization are increasingly important for preventing fraud. 

 

Image-based authentication is ideal for authorizing mobile payments because the intuitive, image-based approach is fast and easy for users – creating a frictionless transaction that is highly secure.

 

Whereas passwords and PINs are static, easily guessable and susceptible to keyloggers and other malware, image-based authentication is highly secure, creates a one-time password or PIN every time and is not susceptible to keyloggers.
