1. A system for biometric pre-identification, comprising:
a non-transitory storage medium that stores instructions; and
at least one processor that executes the instructions to:
determine an identity of a person using a digital representation of a biometric for the person prior to arrival of the person in an area;
associate the person with an item in the area;
signal a gate to open prior to arrival of the person in the area based at least on payment information stored in association with the identity and retrieved from a database using the digital representation of the biometric; and
facilitate processing of a payment for the item after the person leaves the area using the payment information stored in association with the identity and retrieved from the database using the digital representation of the biometric.
