Mobile Barcodes are now appearing in
various media including magazines, catalogs, website, outdoor signage
and billboards, packaged goods, conference presentations, name tags,
clothing, and more. With the increasing adoption of smartphones, and
rapid advancements in their capabilities, Mobile Barcodes are becoming a
powerful advertising vehicle. Unfortunately, far too few marketers
recognize its true potential.
Although the technology does represent an efficient way to access websites, there is significantly more value attainable with effective implementation. This report provides analysis and insights into business challenges, strategies, customer response, use-case analysis, competitive analysis, and market outlook.
Mind Commerce anticipates mobile bar code redemption value to exceed $50B globally by 2017. We see this as a continuation of relatively moderate growth as Mobile Bar Codes enter a steep growth phase beginning in 2017.
