Abstract
Systems and methods for biometrically identifying an individual for purchasing a product and/or service without a need for the individual to input authentication data into a system/device are described. Data representative of a scanned iris of a customer desiring to make a purchase may be made. The customer may be identified based upon the scanned iris. A determination may be made as to whether the identified customer desires to make a purchase with an associated payment amount from an entity. A determination may be made as to whether the identified customer has a default purchase at the entity. Information of an account of the customer to make a purchase may be received and funds in the account may be debited by the associated payment amount. An item corresponding with the purchase based upon the scanned iris may be determined.
