Alibaba’s finance arm has shown a payment service that will allow virtual reality shoppers to pay for things in future just by nodding their heads. VR Pay, the new payment system, is part of Alibaba’s efforts to capitalize on the latest technology in online shopping.

In 2015, for example, it introduced a facial recognition technology for Alipay mobile payments service advertised as “ pay with a selfie (*)”. The VR payment technology means people using virtual reality goggles for payment. With this, you will never need to take out your phone.”

User identity can be verified (驗*) on VR Pay via voice print technology that recognises each person’s unique voice. Lin said this was the most convenient method in a VR setting compared with other recognition technologies. But passwords will still be needed for authentication (*), which the user can also enter with head movements, touch, or by staring at a point on virtual display for longer than 1.5 seconds.

VR pay is expected to be ready for commercial launch soon. The new VR-based payment system can make VR “ a tool rather than just a toy” by connecting various VR goggle makers and app developers to the Alipay payments platform.

Ant Financial Services Group, which displayed VR Pay in Shenzhen on Wednesday, operates China’s largest online payments service with more than 450 million users. In September, it bought US company Eye Verify, a maker of optical (視覺的) verification (驗*) technology used by US banks including Wells Fargo.
