Pay With Your Identity, Not Another Card

Connect biometric identity to fast, cashless payment experiences using BioWave Pay. Arana integrates biometric payment with the appropriate POS, cashier and operational systems around your environment.

The Problem

Why Traditional Checkout Still Costs You

Cards, cash and disconnected payment systems can create unnecessary steps for customers, staff and operators.

Card dependency

Customers and staff need to carry and manage a separate payment credential.

Cash handling

Cash creates additional handling, reconciliation and security requirements.

Slow checkout

Manual authentication and payment steps can add friction during busy periods.

Disconnected payment systems

Payment, identity, staffing and access information can sit across separate systems.

Limited payment visibility

Operators may need to reconcile transactions and operational data manually.

Separate user enrolment

Creating a separate payment identity adds another process for users and administrators.

The integrated solution

One Identity, Four Steps to Pay

Biometric payment links a person’s verified identity to their account, so paying is as simple as a glance or a touch at the till. Arana deploys it on the same BioWave platform used for access and attendance, so people enrol once and use the same identity everywhere.

Every transaction is matched against an encrypted biometric template, never a raw image, and recorded against the right account in real time.

No cards to lose, no cash to count and no queues at peak times. Payment simply becomes part of who someone is.

One-time Enrolment

Customers or staff enrol once and link their biometric to a payment account.

⬇

Verify

At the till, they’re identified by face or fingerprint in about a second.

⬇

Pay

The purchase is charged to their account automatically, with no card, cash or phone needed.

⬇

BioWave Management

Accounts, top-ups and transaction reports are all managed from one central portal.

One Biometric Record, Used Everywhere

Enrol a person once in BioWave, and that same verified identity can unlock doors, clock them in for payroll, authorise a payment or grant visitor access, without re-enrolling on separate systems.

Where we work

Where Biometric Payment Is Used

Why Arana

Big Business Standards. Small Business Attention.

We’re a specialist integrator, not a call-centre-scale vendor. You deal directly with senior engineers from the first site survey onwards, and with a team that takes the time to understand how your organisation actually operates.

Direct access

Speak with the engineer who set up your payment points, not a support queue starting from zero.

Fast to move

New tills, price lists and account rules are actioned in days, not a vendor’s quarterly release cycle.

Tailored, not templated

Payment flows built around your canteen, gym or store, not a generic point-of-sale template.

Accountable, end to end​

The team that configures your payment points is the same team accountable when transactions need reconciling.
