New York, NY – Scanbuy Inc., the World leader in mobile barcode systems and the makers of ScanLife (www.scanlife.com), and Triad Retail Media (www.triadretail.com), the market leader in creating, managing and operating digital retail media programs, today announced a partnership to provide Triad’s retail clients with ScanLife-powered mobile barcodes. With millions of consumers carrying mobile phones and an increase in consumer scanning activity in 2011, retailers are turning to mobile barcodes to elevate the customer experience by engaging shoppers and converting them to more informed buyers as well as enhancing the shopping experience for loyal customers.
“Smartphones have become a valuable resource for on-the-spot product information, and are a major influence for customers along the path to purchase, so it’s important that brands incorporate a mobile strategy that utilizes innovative tools like QR codes,” said Triad Retail Media CEO Greg Murtagh. “This partnership enables us to provide our clients with a proven mobile barcode platform to deliver a more dynamic and intelligent shopping experience that will capture attention and increase brand loyalty.”
“Some of the most active mobile barcode campaigns in 2011 were generated by companies within the consumer packaged goods and retail industries, which makes this the perfect partnership not only for Triad Retail Media, but Scanbuy as well,” said Mike Wehrs, CEO and President, Scanbuy. “We’re thrilled Triad has chosen to use our ScanLife platform to strengthen their clients’ mobile consumer engagement and ultimately drive bottom-line revenues.”
Triad Retail Media has developed custom digital marketing programs for many leading retailers and brands, including Walmart, eBay, CVS, Sam's Club, Dell and many more. With the ScanLife solution, they can now offer another innovative tool to engage and influence consumers with digital content from any media, adding depth to their clients’ marketing strategies. Through the solution’s scalable interoperable code-management platform, Triad’s clients can create and manage high impact mobile barcode campaigns that not only drive revenue, but include powerful analytical capabilities that provide detailed insights into consumer behavior by tracking scanning activity, location and other valuable business intelligence.
In addition, the solution includes a “Scan and Send” feature that enables brands to engage consumers with non-app–enabled mobile phones, making their barcodes accessible to more than 190 million U.S. camera phones. The feature allows access to content by snapping a picture of a standard barcode, then sending it to the ScanLife system via MMS to 43588 or by email to scan@scanlife.com.
