What kind of identification methods are available?

We offer two different ways of account identification.
1. Fingerprint (free of charge)
2. Magnetic wristband (expense contribution 1.000 Yen)

When you visit our cafeteria for the first time, we will set your preferred identification method.

Why fingerprint?

The fingerprint provides the safest way to protect your account from external misuse. For this, we are working together with the company M2SYS, which specializes in this field. Your fingerprint is stored with an AES 128 bit encryption on our servers in the house. It does not store the entire fingerprint, but only special points (template) of the outline. For more information, please read the information letter from M2SYS.

Magnetic wristband

For those who do not want to provide their fingerprints, we offer a magnetic wristband (expense contribution of 1.000 Yen) as alternative identification method. The wristband is available in four colors (black, red, yellow, blue) and in two sizes (50 mm and 60 mm diameter).

Should you or your child lose the wristband, we ask you to inform us immediately through this form, so that the wristband can be locked. Please note that until the time of notification, we do not assume any liability for possible misuse of the accounts.
