Abstract:

A method of using biometric verification comprises identifying a validation requirement during the execution of a non-voice channel interaction, and initiating a contact to the user, at a pre-registered device. The method further comprises executing a biometric verification of the user's identity and possession of the device, via a user interaction at the pre-registered device, and providing the validation when the user is successfully identified.
