Abstract
Systems and methods for verifying individuals prior to distribution of one or more benefits are disclosed. One exemplary method includes receiving, at a server, a proof-of-life validation from a payment service provider. The proof-of-life validation is based on receipt of a valid biometric from the individual at a payment device associated with the individual, and a transaction using said payment device. The method further includes distributing the benefit to a benefit account associated with the individual, when the proof-of-life validation is received within a time interval of the benefit distribution date.
