The use of the biometric cards for
bank transactions in Ghana would delay a while as the Bank of Ghana is
now working with its South African partners to develop a software for
the banks.
Some banks do not accept the new card from their customers due to their inability to verify its authenticity.
The
immediate past Governor of the Bank of Ghana and Vice President
Amissah-Arthur made this known during his vetting session with the
Appointments Committee on Monday.
According to him, the software when assessed would assist with the verification of the cards to ensure smooth transactions.
“The
Bank of Ghana is in the process of identifying a software that the
banks will use to authenticate people who bring various types of
biometric cards, so that they will be clear that the individual who
wants a transaction at the bank is the individual who he is claiming to
be,” he explained.
The immediate past Governor also added that
the deal in finding the software is because the Bank of Ghana “wants to
find a software that is able to query the database of the various
national institutions that have biometric register so it will take us
some time.”
