Everyone uses debit and credit cards to facilitate cash less transaction. But if someone has known your PIN and is in possession of your debit card then they can go to the nearest ATM and easily withdraw cash from your account. So Mekong Development Bank in Vietnam has removed PIN from the equation and started using fingerprints to grant access to the account. All the user has to do is to register his/her fingerprint while opening a bank account and can use the card and fingerprint at any one of the 33 NCR SelfServ ATMs across Vietnam to get cash from their account.
