What are 2D Barcodes?

	2D Barcodes, a simple black and white barcode pattern that companies print on magazines, posters, signs, business cards, coupons, labels and other media, allow access to information in a content rich digital environment.

How do 2D Barcodes work?

	2D Barcodes offer two common uses. When a customer uses their camera phone to scan a code, the camera phone becomes a barcode scanner. The camera captures the 2D barcode image and a reader triggers an activity such as opening a mobile URL or placing a phone call. When a customer presents a 2D barcode to claim a coupon or presents a pre-paid ticket to an event, a company representative with a 2D barcode scanner verifies authenticity by scanning the code.

I have never used 2D barcodes and want advice on how to implement this technology.

The fact that the customer gives permission for you to market to them continues to be the most exiting aspect of mobile barcoding.


The following are important things for you to consider:

	Plan before you implement mobile barcodes. We encourage you to determine how to respond and how to engage customers over the long-term. Also, by demonstrating value and by offering financial benefits, entertainment or utility, you increase participation by potential and present customers.

	Carefully consider the design and placement of your 2D barcode. Prominently place your 2D barcode on a flat surface away from folds or other features that might obstruct scanning.

	Simplify the process for your customers Explain how the code works and include information about how to download a reader.

	Test your 2D barcode and decide how to track results. Assure that your code works by testing with a variety of camera-equipped mobile phones running a variety of mobile barcode scanning applications.

	EPS Format - This bitmap EPS file is the preferred format of most graphic designers due to its quality.

	TIFF Format - This layered TIFF file, created in Adobe Photoshop, works well for graphic artists who prefer to work in Photoshop and need a transparent background. This format is not suitable for significant resizing.
