Retail has two clocks: the cart about to be abandoned and the hire starting Monday. SenseCrypt signs in shoppers without passwords and puts crew on shared devices.
01The ceremony
Web, app, kiosk, or register
Your branded flow, no password
Checkout step-up or store role
Order, loyalty, or register session
02The outcomes
Returning customers confirm on their own phone and the order goes through. No password stands between the cart and the sale.
Customer accounts have no password behind them, so credentials spilled in someone else's breach can't be replayed here.
Web, app, or in-store screen: the customer approves with the same glance at their own phone wherever they shop.
Before a big-ticket order or a stored-card change, the prompt names the exact request. Only the account holder's live face approves.
Enroll new hires from the photo in their file, provision through SCIM, and revoke the whole cohort when the season ends.
Crew verify on their own phones to open shared registers and back-office tools, so every discount, refund, and override traces to a person.
Give each franchisee or supplier an isolated tenant with your branding: one platform for the whole network.
03The failure modes
A forgotten password at checkout is an abandoned cart, and every reset email is another chance to drop off.
Passwords reused from other sites get stuffed into your accounts. When the points drain, your brand takes the blame.
Every peak season hundreds join and leave within weeks; provisioning and deprovisioning by hand can't keep up.
Password resets are a top contact-center driver: cost without a single unit sold.
The web remembers a shopper the app forgot, and the kiosk starts from zero: every channel authenticates differently.
Faced with one more password, customers choose guest checkout. The relationship ends at the receipt.
04The compliance map
No passwords, no biometric database. The data a retail breach normally exposes was never collected.
Under NIST SP 800-63B, a one-time code typed by hand does not qualify as phishing-resistant. Checkout step-up and loyalty sign-in run as a live-face approval on the enrolled phone, leaving nothing for stuffing or relay kits to use.
Read the sourceVerification is biometric-blind: no face template is ever stored, so there is no biometric data to minimize or defend. That supports the data-minimization principle in Article 5(1)(c).
