Re-register Fingerprint – Classic
Re-register Fingerprint Overview
The FTx POS system allows employees to register or re-register their fingerprints using the "Re-register Fingerprint" feature. These fingerprints serve as unique digital credentials for biometric authentication, enhancing security, improving accountability, and offering a more convenient, intuitive login experience for employees.
For added protection, fingerprint data is not stored in a traditional, retrievable format, ensuring it cannot be extracted from the system.
