As stated on Cornèrcard’s official website, “With the exclusive Cornèrcard Biometric Gold Visa credit card, you are holding a high-tech product: fingerprint […] offers you the perfect combination of security and convenience when paying.”
However, a card with a biometric identifier will not become a mass product for the time being: up to 100 such cards will be issued with other additional services attached. (origo)
