What are QR Codes?
QR codes really are easy to use. As long as you have e.g. a compatible phone with a QR reader installed, it's as simple as taking a photo. A QR reader is an application you can download from many internet sources (e.g. your mobile provider), which enables your mobile to recognise QR codes and read them. Your mobile can then do what the QR code tells it to do.
QR codes are like barcodes. Simply scan them with your mobile and they'll connect you directly to mobile content. They give you easy access to a range of things like web pages, promo details, special offers, maps and much more. No more typing out long URLs. There's nothing tricky, just scan and go.
