It's Here: Finger Vein Payments
"British supermarket offers 'finger vein' payment in worldwide first"
First I've heard of this but looks like it's going to be adopted pretty fast.. cashless society advances..

"A UK supermarket has become the first in the world to let shoppers pay for groceries using just the veins in their fingertips.
Customers at the Costcutter store, at Brunel University in London, can now pay using their unique vein pattern to identify themselves.
The firm behind the technology, Sthaler, has said it is in "serious talks" with other major UK supermarkets to adopt hi-tech finger vein scanners at pay points across thousands of stores.
It works by using infrared to scan people's finger veins and then links this unique biometric map to their bank cards. Customers’ bank details are then stored with payment provider Worldpay, in the same way you can store your card details when shopping online. Shoppers can then turn up to the supermarket with nothing on them but their own hands and use it to make payments in just three seconds."

Wow awesome, we are advancing really fast in the field of technology :)
This is brilliant, solid security and easy carriage. lol. I mean what's to carry ?? your print.
Wow! Our wisdom (applying what we understand) will keep us marketable in this world because Jesus already have overcome the world. The secrets and the data that the Lord will reveal to us, will keep us on top of things, like what you’re doing now. I pray for you to be above all your companions and the oil of gladness be with you, always!
God help us prepare for end times. Thanks...i think. Blessings.
