Abstract
A method for authenticating a user includes transmitting, from a first electronic device at a first location via a first communications link, first biometric information of a first user, authenticating a first identity of the first user for a transaction associated with an item, transmitting, from a second electronic device at a second location via a second communications link, second biometric information of a second user, authenticating a second identity of the second user located at the second location that is different from the first location, verifying that the first user at the first location corresponds to the second user at the second location, and authorizing access to the item at the second location, responsive to verifying by the server that the first user at the first location corresponds to the second user at the second location. Related systems, devices and computer program products are also described.
