Alex Codina, general manager of merchant payments at Revolut Business, said: “By combining high-performance processing with facial recognition technology, we’re replacing outdated, fragmented tills with a hyper-efficient checkout experience designed to solve consumer and merchant pain points.”

Why do people find it painful to pay with cash or tap a card or enter a pin or wave their phone? Why are there so many different payment methods? You still have to tap on the option to use this method anyway, it's not a simple glance. What is the point?
