Furthermore, adding a beauty filter will not affect the accuracy of face payment. As the intelligent AI, facial recognition algorithm used in facial recognition-based payment system will transform the face information into a series of digital codes, not the face images.

It will effectively recognize the face according to the depth of face, the concision of eyes and the height of nose such 3D information, rather than the amount of blush and skin tone.
