Center for Biometric Technologies (CBT), interested in developing service certificates for the sale of alcohol and tobacco.
The general director of the company, Vladislav Povolotsky, said that the service is planned to be launched in 2024. With its help, people will confirm their age using a face scan from the EBS (approx. Unified biometric system).
It is noted that even simplified biometrics are suitable (take a selfie in the “State Services Biometrics” application and a verified account on the state portal) and a verified digital profile.
X5 Group (owns Pyaterochka and Perekrestok) is already planning to implement the service in self-service terminals. However, the final decision will depend on the network connectivity to EBS, the cost of operations as it grows, and interactions with digital data processing agreements.
