Whole Foods Market debuts Amazon One palm payment in Austin store

The Arbor Trails Whole Foods Market store in Austin is the first store in the Austin area to offer Amazon One, a palm recognition service, as a payment option that allows shoppers to purchase with a scan of their palm, according to a press release.

Austin is the first region outside the Seattle area where Whole Foods Market is offering Amazon One as a payment option.

Once a customer has enrolled their palm with the Amazon One service, and linked their credit/debit card, they just need to hover their hand over the Amazon One device at checkout and the card linked to their palm will be charged for the purchase.
