Fingerprint API

Fingerprint api  is a set of related programmable functions and procedures that aids in adding Biometrics Features into Software application. It is one of the safest methods for authentication as it’s harder to crack or hack compared to passwords. Using fingerprint recognition makes the process of online transactions secure and fast. It also eases the stress of typing passwords,pins or patterns.

It is easy to setup and can be added to any type of website or mobile app. To get started, create an account with FingerprintJS and generate a public API key. Then, add our JavaScript agent to your web or mobile app, and let it identify visitors by sending attributes to our backend. The results are returned as a unique visitor ID, which can be stored on your server or sent to your e-commerce platform.

Exploring the Power of a Fingerprint API for Online Identity Verification

Onboarding: Fingerprint verification requires a scan of the user’s fingers or hands with an optical scanner. The scanner captures the ridges and valleys of the fingerprint and uses them to create a digital representation called a template. A new fingerprint is then compared to the template and if the match reaches a predefined threshold, access is granted.

This fingerprint recognition technology is more reliable than other authentication methods, such as face or iris scanning, and requires significantly less maintenance. However, it’s important to have a fallback authentication method, such as a PIN or password, to prevent unauthorized access if the fingerprint scanner is damaged or fails to recognize the fingerprint.
