Adding a QR Bar Code to a Custom Challenge Coin

In today's technological world, QR coding is drastically increasing in prominence.  What is a QR code? A QR code is a two dimensional barcode that can be read using a QR barcode reader or a camera phone with the appropriate application. The information embedded within the code may be text, a web address, preferred customer information, a coupon or other data.

Getting Ahead By Staying Connected

If you want your business or organization to stay current, you can implement a QR code into your challenge coin design. The code is a good way for companies to link people directly to your company's website. Potential clients will not have to worry about trying to remember the web address nor will you have to be concerned about them forgetting it. With coins being portable and easy to access, clients always have a way to find you when they need you.

No Need to Look Any Further

Aside from website, traditional contact information like the business' address and telephone number can be encoded as well. This way if someone is already out and needs to locate you, they can scan the barcode to obtain the address for input into a GPS system. This would also give them a means of contacting you for directions or for answers to sudden questions.

This Card is Hard to Lose

Are you familiar with v-cards?  V-cards are file formats for electronic business cards.  These eco-friendly and paperless promotional items can be embedded in a QR code as well.  Company coins are generally far more interesting and original than traditional business cards. Recipients will be surprised and even entertained by your company's efforts to stand out. Not to mention, the originality behind your coins will make them less likely to be misplaced.

Do not hesitate to take your business relations to the next level.  Order your QR barcode custom challenge coins today and watch your customer base grow!
