QR or Calling Cards?

The now-familiar QR is a close second to RFID payments as a preferred payment convenience, fuelling consumerism. Besides this, they’re great for making information accessible for onlookers on the move and commuters that are most likely to come across your brand while in transit.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, it’s hard to walk to blocks in a city without encountering at least a hundred vendors using QR codes for payments. Nonetheless, here’s a quick word.

Some Specifics

For the most part, QR codes are a popular type of two-dimensional barcode. They are also known as hardlinks or physical world hyperlinks. QR Codes store up to 4,296 alphanumeric characters of arbitrary text. The text could be anything from URLs, to contact information, telephone numbers, or even limericks! They can be read by any modern-day optical, handheld device with the appropriate, ranging from dedicated QR code readers to mobile phones.

Dreamforce, an event where attendees walk through the day, serves as a great example. QR codes featured in event invites for registration, as well as member badges for quickly creating the contact in a mobile app.

Scanning apps for QR are available in plenty on all major mobile app-stores. By, pow the same token, powering your Salesforce Org with QR codes uncovers possibilities for quick sharing of information in various scenarios.
