The invention relates to a method for controlling a user's access to a resource, wherein the access to said resource is protected by an access base (20, 200), and the user has a mobile telephone terminal (10, 100) equipped with a module for acquiring at least one biometric data of the user, which method includes an access request step (1a, 1b, 100a, 100b) in which the user indicates using its terminal that he wishes to have access to the resource, as well as an acquisition step (4, 130) for acquiring at least one biometric data from the user on the terminal, said method being characterized in that: to indicate that he wishes to have access to the resource for which access is protected by the base, the user transmits an identifying code of the base to a server (30, 300), and in that, following the step of requesting access to the resource, it comprises the steps of: transmission by the server of the access request to the access base identified by said identifying code that the telephone terminal has provided to the server; call of the terminal to invite the user to provide its biometric data on the terminal; search by a biometric comparison module for a match between said biometric data of the user and one or more user biometric references; indication to the base of the result of said search by said server.
