[Become a “members” store. They have to sign up,, present a credit card and valid ID]
That is the basic implementation of the Amazon One store - cell phone, credit/debit card tied to one person - non-payment / insufficient monetary balances / line of credit will result in non-admittance (eventually) and disallowing purchases.

Pay with your hand - Forerunner to the coming Mark of the Beast (Revelation 13) Using one's hands to pay for food. A boxed "convenience store" (Hudson Nonstop, LAX airport, Dallas Love Field airport), to Arbor Trails Whole Foods (Austin, Texas), to paying for food at Panera Bread, to other Whole Foods stores (owned by Amazon).
Yes, I use Amazon for shopping from time-to-time but this "scan-your-hand-to-pay" is already alive and in operation - no doubt it will continue to expand / grow in acceptance. The conditioning (intentional or unintentional, it will make no difference) has started.
I'm sure the people in the pics think they're showing the latest "cool thing" - possibly mocking and laughing at any reference to the "Mark of the Beast" - this is just a sampling of the pictures I found.
By the time the actual Mark of the Beast, these kinds of payment systems will be fully-embedded in society I think.

The world is not there - YET. But the conditioning, intentional or unintentional - it will make no difference. Fast, easy, secure, convenient. IMHO, cash will be outlawed. Digital Currency 100% will be the future. /Captain Obvious
