Re-register Fingerprint Overview

The FTx POS system lets the employees register/re-register their fingerprints through the "Re-register Fingerprint" feature. These fingerprints act as unique digital passwords that are used in biometric authentication to reduce the risks of security breaches and improve accountability while making it a more convenient and intuitive tool for all the employees. These prints are NOT stored in a traditional way that can be taken out of the system at all.
