The Barclays Biometric Reader

Online security is ever-evolving and increasingly important to counteract online fraud and theft. The Barclays Biometric Reader (BBR) is a first of its kind innovative solution, enabling you to log in and approve payments using Finger Vein reader technology.

The Biometric Reader uses infra-red light to scan the unique vein patterns in your finger to verify an individual’s identity. The vein patterns are matched with the pattern recorded on the Smart SIM which the user retains.

It is easy to use, removes the need to remember a pin or password and will help pave the way in combating both internal and external fraud.

The BBR is now available to all Barclays.Net and iPortal clients.

Before you place an order for the BBR, please ensure that you read our FAQ section.
