Wink, a Texas and California based, biometric identity and payments platform, is pleased to announce that it has received an additional $3M million of seed investment.

Wink is pleased to work with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Digital Chassis Connected Services to demonstrate a new camera-based driver recognition and handsfree payment technology for the connected car market. Through our work together, we look forward to showcasing how we can bring to market unique frictionless payment experiences as automakers shift to software-defined vehicle architectures

Wink is on a mission to eliminate identity theft and payments fraud on the internet while enhancing user convenience and speed for e-commerce transactions.
