JP Morgan becomes the latest to roll out invasive point-of-sale biometric payment plan, following Visa, MasterCard and Amazon
Leo Hohmann – LeoHohmann.com March 27, 2023
While Americans get increasingly hypnotized by 2024 election coverage, where all they’re hearing about is the theatrics surrounding Donald Trump, the globalists and technocrats are moving rapidly to install a new global economic order that will outmaneuver the political system and enslave humanity.
Trump is the perfect polarizing figure to distract Americans at this key moment in history. Keep your gaze on him and you’re guaranteed to miss the bigger picture.
This has to do with the fast-approaching beast system, which is marching us toward World War III and economic slavery through cashless payment systems, 24/7 biometric surveillance and even death. Yes, World War III and mRNA injections will provide the global culling of human populations that Bill Gates, Henry Kissinger, the Rockefellers and other powerful interests have been advocating for decades.
With that background, let’s get to the main point of this article: Cashless electronic payment systems that feed on your personal biometric data.
Last week we learned that the restaurant chain Panera Bread is rolling out a new biometric payment option offered by Amazon where customers have their palms scanned with no cash or credit cards necessary.
Now JP Morgan has announced it’s also rolling out a new biometric payment system with plans to make it available to all the retail businesses it deals with.
The Wine Press reports:
“After a month of banking turmoil around the world, the American megabank JP Morgan announced earlier this week the launch of a pilot program for a new facial recognition payment platform, which they plan to franchise to other banks and businesses to use. Other credit card companies have introduced similar type of payment systems, such as VISA’s contactless payment and facial recognition system for last year’s FIFA World Cup in Qatar, or Mastercard’s ‘Smile to Pay‘ feature.”
On its website, Visa invites us to learn “how to tap to pay” with its contactless payment systems. Apple has offered biometric log-ins for its cellphones for several years and now you can just point your phone or your AppleWatch to some of these systems and, bingo, you’re ready to check out. You can see on its website the long list of retail participants in Visa’s contactless system, including McDonalds, Aldi, Costco, CVS Pharmacy, 7-Eleven, Dunkin Donuts, Starbucks, OfficeMax, Whole Foods, etc.
Visa explains its system as follows:
“Contactless payments are transactions made by tapping either a contactless card or payment-enabled mobile or wearable device over a contactless-enabled payment terminal. Cards, phones, watches, and other devices use the same contactless technology. When you tap to pay, checkout is secure and convenient.”
Every time corporate America rolls out a new technological advancement, the selling point is always the same. It’s always more safe, secure and convenient.
JP Morgan expounded on its new contactless payment system in a March 23 press release:
“J.P. Morgan will begin piloting biometrics-based payments with select retailers in the U.S. This is the first pilot solution to launch from J.P. Morgan Payments’ new Commerce Solutions suite of products, dedicated to helping merchants adapt to the rapidly evolving payments landscape.
“Its biometrics-based payment pilot includes palm and face identification for payments authentication in-store and works on an enroll-capture-authenticate-pay basis. Global biometric payments are expected to reach $5.8T and 3B users by 2026, according to Goode Intelligence.
“J.P. Morgan Payments’ biometrics pilot offering should allow for fast, secure and simple checkout experiences for its merchants’ customers, delivering a modern payments experience to enhance customer loyalty. As the leading global merchant acquirer, J.P. Morgan Payments is uniquely positioned to enable this solution to meet shopper expectations without compromising security and reliability.“
Jean-Marc Thienpont, head of Omnichannel Solutions for J.P. Morgan Payments stated:
“At its heart, biometrics-based payments empowers our merchant clients to deliver a better customer payment experience. We are a trusted payments provider and financial institution worldwide, and fully equipped to manage the highly secure identification points that power biometrics solutions. The evolution of consumer technology has created new expectations for shoppers, and merchants need to be ready to adapt to these new expectations.”
Ah yes, you can read between the lines of that statement and hear what he’s really saying: Get ready to adapt, you peasants, because the cashless society is here whether you like it or not!
JP Morgan will run its first pilot programs with brick-and-mortar stores in the U.S., and potentially including the Formula 1 Crypto.com Miami Grand Prix, which is planning to be the first Formula 1 race to pilot biometrics-based payments to provide guests with a faster checkout experience.
If the pilot program is successful, then a wider rollout will be launched for U.S. merchant clients in 2024, JP Morgan said.
Beware of these “contactless” payment systems.
The globalists not only want to remove the cash from your wallet, they also want to remove the credit cards, debit cards and eventually even your cellphone from your pocket.
As WEF advisor Yuval Noah Harari has already warned us, the next stage in the global technocracy movement is for 24/7 surveillance tools to go “under the skin.”
I’m old enough to remember when debit cards were controversial and now we’re scanning people’s body parts as a mode of payment. This is just part of the long-planned, incremental evolution toward the full-on cashless society that “conspiracy theorists” have been warning about since at least the 1980s. They were not wrong; they were just ahead of their time.
The way to defeat this beast, or at least slow it down, is not politically through human messiah figures, but personally through our own human agency. We must resolve to never comply with these systems.
Do you hear any political candidate talking about the dark side of digital? Do you hear any of them talking about the privacy-destroying smart city technology that is being installed in cities worldwide? Do you hear any discussing the dangers of digital vaccine passports, which were endorsed by the G20 nations at the end of last year? No, I don’t either. And that includes Trump.
We will never vote our way out of this system, not by electing Trump or DeSantis or anyone else. We already tried that messiah thing, remember? Voting is good but voting only represents a very small portion of our civic duty and we must not let ourselves be consumed by the theater that surrounds the elections process, especially presidential elections.
Instead, I would posit that we must, as individuals, decide now whose kingdom we wish to be a part of. We can stay inside the worldly beast system, enjoying its temporary safety, security and conveniences, only to pay the piper later by going down with this corrupt system when it meets its inevitable demise. Or, we can opt out of the system — a decision that will at some point invite the wrath of the world system, which is operated by Luciferian globalist predators.
These predators cannot accept that some people just want to be left alone, living free and independent of their transhumanist technologies and dehumanizing pharmaceutical products. By making our stand against these global predators now, we send them a message that they won’t rule over us, they won’t subjugate us, at least not by enticing us to willingly walk into our own captivity. Just say no to biometric payments, digital payment apps, electric cars, wearable tech, smart cities, mRNA injections, lab-grown meat and all the rest of the deceitful illusions that make up the matrix.

“….better customer payment experience… rapidly evolving payments landscape…”
Perfect Newspeak! Somewhere Orwell is weeping.
He thought Big Brother would be the government. But no, it’s the Company Store that ended up with all the money.
I posted this the other week:
“I hope if/when Trump is not arrested “next Tuesday” TTS will carry an article “Trump Not Arrested”.
I WILL ADD THIS TO MY PREDICTIONS TAB AND BE BACK TO HAUNT THE COMMENTS SECTION WITH MY NAYSAYING A WEEK FROM NOW.
Can I expect a TTS article “Simon Smith predicts another non-event”? I don’t think so. Anti-climaxes seems to be not regarded as worthy as that which might be “exciting”.
As it is, I guarantee the army of truth-liters will pass the article among themselves, the article writer earn a few shekels, and “alternative” journalists will be home-brewing their next prophetic click-bait pieces.”
https://www.thetruthseeker.co.uk/?p=266582

So, I’m BACK TO HAUNT THE COMMENTS SECTION in my own anticlimactic way….I daresay my RIVETING predictions of unfulfilled clickbait will continue, but it is unlikely TTS reports “Simon Smith right again…”
There will always be those predicting the end of the world, but when this time passes and we are still all here, they will have already collected their money from their scaremongering…
Where after all, is the article FROM THEM, ” I was wrong about Trump arrest – he is still at large” ?
Someone said recently such a large program of social control like this will need the local administrative services of small banks to implement and run properly, those very same banks they need to close down to give them centralised control to bring the system in. That’s a circle they’re unlikely to square but they may still want to try it. It’s untried and unproven, a concept intended to replace the only system of commerce humanity’s ever had, the exchange of one valuable for one commodity. It’ll be one big mighty fat failure.
By cutting off trade with the hard currency countries, we allow the guv to digitize (demonetize) anything of value and by the grace of corrupt courts and computers — own it. What’s coming is the largest theft of property and freedom in world history.
Individual states must resist this with whatever force necessary. The conversion to digital money will destroy our human rights: no free speech, no weapons. We will be required to live in fifteen minute pens (ghettoes) much like in Orwell’s “Animal Farm”.
According to today’s newsletter from Redacted the EU has withdrawn its proposed ban on combustion-engine cars, which if true should aggravate Klaus Schwab nicely. They gave no links nor said why but Jim Stone says electric vehicles cost too much to make and many models are sold at a loss. So the switch to EVs risks pushing some car makers like Ford and GM into bankruptcy, though he mostly blames their wokeness for appointing less than ideal people to run the business but who are minority, female or queer.
Let’s all rally around the Make Israel Great Again shill, and whoreship the Jew loving “warp speed” death vaxx president, who pardoned Jew criminals and left the Jan 6th supporters rot in prison. Trump will save us!
Trump said on TV sitting next to his daughter “If I was her age I would date her”.
Yeah, let us make him our president again.
LOLROFLMAO
It has actually been around for quite a while.
Most are listening, but few are understanding. The young want it (it’s ‘cool’ and because they are lazy), many older people are desperate to ‘get down with the kids’.
And let’s not forget “self check-out”…which I hate, BTW! Not only is it not “convenient” but it has taken away jobs… at good ol’ Walmart, there are twenty “self check-out” machines which often do not accept cash (how convenient!) while there are only three human-run old timey checkout lines. And coming soon in rural remote far west Texas–self checkouts in super markets! What a way to get folks to have to buy from Amazon…if you can no longer use cash at your local supermarket. Cost effective, since you don’t need $3.50 per gallon gas to drive thirty miles…
Yukon Jack is right–and I can’t believe many folks in my neck of the woods still buy into the Trump-tardism what with his Operation Warp Speed insanity…but what else can be expected of Christian Zionists?

This prospective rollout of digital based Beast System Currencies doesn’t surprise me in the least. As a huge percentage of the population in the Western Hemisphere including certain other parts of the globe. Have been gradually been coerced into a false state of consciousnes, and also very much a false sense of security over the last several decades or so. Probably due to the extensive subliminal brainwashing of the general public throughout the 80’s, 90’s and 2000 onwards, due to the overly materialistic attitudes of the respective countries in these regions.
The main reason in general that this cynical, and somewhat dubious agenda is beginning to take shape. Is due to the declining economical power of the nations predominantly in the West. Majority of there overall currencies are simply not worth paper that they’re printed on. So the Elites need a new Centralised Digital Based Currency System to control, and soon after enslave their gullible, brainwashed, overly compliant vaccinated public.
So try to use cash as much as possible over the next few years! As only general non-compliance on a local and regional level will stop them from fulling their agenda….and believe you me. This really scares them.
Cause once the Elites have their Digital Currency System in place between now and the middle of this decade. We’re f***ed!
Just hope and pray that the general public wake up pretty fast.
@Anonymous That’s the way I look at it as well! The trend of the older generations desperately wanting to be in style with the younger ones is ridiculous. The woman I WAS in relationship with for several years would be on the side of her teenagers when I tried to discipline them I told her they didn’t need another friend to party with what they needed was a mom and dad I no longer with her for obvious reasons.
I disagree with the author on the point of messiah – A or rather THE messiah is in fact the only way to thwart the Beast system.
34As you watched, a rock was cut from a mountain, but not by human hands. It struck the feet of iron and clay, smashing them to bits. 35The whole statue was crushed into small pieces of iron, clay, bronze, silver, and gold. Then the wind blew them away without a trace, like chaff on a threshing floor. But the rock that knocked the statue down became a great mountain that covered the whole earth.
