The technology provided by Uniqul, works by recognising the customer's face and then linking it to the individual's bank account.
So instead of swiping a credit card to purchase goods, the customer gazes into a camera.
Uniqul claims its service is secured with military-grade algorithms, 'The Australian' reported.
Uniqul's Ruslan Pisarenko said the technology - which is due to roll out next month - has the ability for transactions to be completed instantly and can even distinguish between identical twins, 'News Limited Network' reported.
"But in some cases where the system is not 100 per cent accurate, it will ask a person to input their PIN as security," he said.
There is no payment card involved, nor is a mobile or wallet needed.
Customers sign up to the technology by registering their identification and bank details.
Once the items are scanned through the customers' details will flash up on a screen and they click "OK" to confirm the transaction.
