Amazon Go customers will be able to pay by placing their hand over a sensor using Amazon One, which connects their palm print to a stored value card, according to a CNN report. Customers usually use a code on their smartphones to access the stores and to pay.

Amazon One will be available in two Amazon Go stores in Seattle, with more added in the next few months in Seattle, Chicago, New York City and San Francisco.

The company plans to make the technology available to other retailers.
