New terminals will greatly simplify the activation process of SIM cards for stateless persons who need to have biometric identity due to foreign citizens and laws. Previously, it was necessary to buy Snıls, sign up to the public services portal and enter biometric data via the bank.
Now the biometry control is passed through the customer’s application on the customer’s smartphone or the personal cabin of the legal entity using the operator’s employee. Thanks to the installation of biotermins, the verification procedure is directly integrated into the process of concluding the contract that gives significant time for customers and internal workers.
The project was implemented with the supply of the Russian Council Ministry, Biometric Technologies Center and Ovision, equipment. In Megaphone, it is planned to fully equip all halls with biometric terminals in autumn, which will reduce the maintenance time of foreign subscribers twice and make SIM cards more comfortable.
