Mobile Commerce Working Group
In March 2011, BISG's MRC Committee launched the Mobile Commerce Working Group. The mandate of the Working Group is to explore the potential uses and issues associated with consumer readable symbology, including both one-dimensional EAN (UPC) codes and two-dimensional codes, especially matrix codes (e.g., Quick Response, or QR codes).Information related to mobile commerce and two-dimensional symbologies can be found here.
