ABSTRACT

As mobile devices increasingly become integral to our daily lives, securingdigital transactions has never been more critical. This project presents the designandimplementation of a robust mobile-based secure payment systemthat leveragesfingerprint biometrics for user authentication. The system addresses security concernsin mobile payments, offering a seamless and secure alternative to traditional payment methods. The objective include security enhancement which is the primary objective of thisproject is to enhance the security of mobile-based payments provided by utilizingfingerprint biometrics, the system ensures that only authorized users can initiateandauthorize transactions. Usability and Convenience is also a priority user convenience. The integration of fingerprint authentication streamlines the payment process, eliminating the need for complex passwords or PINs. The project employs an agile approach to achieve its objectives. The development phase includes the creation of a mobile application compatible with Android andiOSplatforms. This application integrates with the device's biometric authenticationcapabilities to capture and verify user fingerprints securely. The back-endof thesystem encompasses a secure server infrastructure responsible for managinguseraccounts, processing payments, and maintaining transaction records. Data encryptionand secure communication protocols are employed to protect sensitive informationduring transmission. The mobile-based secure payment system using fingerprint biometrics representsanoteworthy advancement in the realm of digital payment security. Its successful implementation demonstrates the feasibility of enhancing security while maintaininguser convenience. As mobile payments continue to proliferate, the systemserves asarobust model for secure and user-friendly transaction authentication.
