System and method for enrolling in a biometric system

摘要

The present invention is a system and method of enrolling potential system users for a biometric system for identity verification. Potential system user information is entered into the system, either by the user or a system operator, and is stored as a partially-enabled user record. The user of a partially-enabled user record fully enables the record by presenting information previously stored in the user record and presenting the remainder of user information necessary to complete record activation. Enrollment data is used to authenticate the system user's identity and authorize related transaction accesses in a biometric system for identity verification.

1. A system, comprising:
a processor; and a memory, wherein the processor and memory are communicatively coupled to one another; wherein the processor:
receives request data to initiate enrollment for enabling a user to access the system, the request data including a unique identification code and user contact data;creates a record in a system database;associates the unique identification code with the record;stores in the system database the received request data in association with the record;communicates information about the unique identification code to the user via the user contact data;communicates biometric data from the user to a third party; andreceives from the third party a confirmation that the biometric data is verified.
