Whirl 做什么

Whirl's proprietary payment terminal allows customers to pay with a fingerprint in just 1 second. It is the fastest and most secure method of payment on the market, offering the security of a chip card with a nearly invisible payment experience. Just a single press to the payment terminal, and payment is complete.

Whirl

Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Pay instantly with your fingerprint.

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We're building a proprietary payment terminal that lets customers pay with a fingerprint in about a second. The terminal combines the security of chip card payments with a much faster and simpler experience: just press your finger, and payment is done.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in South San Francisco, and the company is based there. After YC we would continue to be based in South San Francisco, close to the hardware and payment ecosystem we depend on.

Explain your decision regarding location.

South San Francisco is where we are now, and it's ideal for building hardware-focused payment products, so we'll stay here rather than moving.
