We're working on fixing this issue. Fortunately, I think our system works better. http://www.facecash.com http://www.facecash.com

Your site looks gorgeous, but I think your tagline and copy could use some serious work. After I read "The future of payments has arrived" I had no idea what your product does, and you failed my 5 second filter. Since I wanted to maybe suggest an alternative, though, I spent some more time to figure out what you product does by reading the bottom. I still couldn't figure out what your product does. Does this thing link my face with my credit card somehow? Why on earth would I share banking details with you if I have no idea what the benefit will be. Why no about page, at least?

  Thanks for the feedback. We were hoping that people would be intrigued by the photo of the product (the same image where you read the tagline), and then click on one of the links below (https://www.thinklink.com/index.html?more=1 https://www.thinklink.com/index.html?more=1), but you're right that it's not clear enough. We'll work on it. For the record, what it is: a pre-funded alternative payment system that uses your phone, a barcode, and your face to eliminate the need for a plastic card at the point of sale. Hence no crazy signature problems.

    Ah OK, I didn't see those. I think a horizontal nav with About, Signup, etc. would do wonders, at least for those that expect an about page. A more explanatory tagline would help too, though. Thanks for the clarification. How do you all plan to get around the very high hurdle of getting high penetration of point of sale systems that are compatible and can show a picture of someone's face? There're a lot of legacy systems out there... Don't mean to bust your chops, just curious. Could do phone-based required authorization instead, which would at least remove the picture requirement?
