The launch of a service allowing hotel check-ins using biometrics is planned in our country for the second half of 2024. Initially, it will operate in a test mode. The government has approved the resolution on the pilot project.
With biometrics, people will be able to quickly check into hotels, sanatoriums, as well as vacation homes and tourist resorts. Russians will be able to register themselves using a terminal or tablet. All they will need to do is look at the screen and then receive the key to their room. No additional information input will be required.
It is expected that this service will prove to be efficient. The workload on hotel staff and other establishments will decrease. Additionally, the service will eliminate queues, especially during the summer period.
Russian citizens who have registered their biometric data will be able to use this service. This can be done by visiting one of the bank branches. There are over 12,000 such branches in Russia.
