Today NeoMedia Technologies, Inc.

John will report to Dean Wood, VP of Global Business Development.

NeoMedia Expands Its Relationship with Neustar Beyond the U.S to Include Licensing Mobile Barcode Ecosystem Patents in Mexico



Atlanta, GA, January 28, 2010 –NeoMedia Technologies, Inc. and Neustar, Inc. today announced that they have expanded their agreement to license NeoMedia’s patented technologies beyond the US into Mexico.  On October 6, 2009, the companies announced that they were working together to provide a “one stop shop” for consumer brands to simply and affordably use the barcode ecosystem to deliver new applications, services and compelling content to mobile consumers.



The addition of Neustar’s central registry and clearinghouse services to NeoMedia’s patented barcode ecosystem technology means that brands can now implement interoperable barcode campaigns for consumers who use any barcode scanner participating in this ecosystem regardless of the mobile service provider.  The Neustar/NeoMedia collaboration enables brands to offer more targeted and dynamic communication options to mobile consumers, beyond simply taking them to the company’s website or to special micro-sites developed for specific campaigns.



“With the rapid growth of mobile Internet use in Mexico, and innovation among operators and mobile marketing agencies and the brands they serve, we are excited to bring this reliable solution to this important region,” said Diane Strahan, Vice President of Mobile Services at Neustar.



Mexico remains one of the most attractive communications markets in Latin America, according to Pyramid Research. By year-end 2008, it was the second-largest market in the region at $27.1 billion, noted Cesar Jimenez, Senior Analyst at Pyramid Research. "Over the next five years, Pyramid Research expects Mexico's total market revenue to reach $29.9 billion, with mobile services revenue to account for 61 percent of the total market.”



“We’ve enjoyed working with the team at Neustar to develop a reliable and scalable barcode ecosystem with all players in the market,” said Iain McCready, CEO, NeoMedia. “Mexico is an exciting market, and we look forward to enabling the mobile operators to create new revenue streams, and enabling mobile marketing firms and their brand clients to attract and serve customers using their camera equipped mobile devices for comparison shopping, to download coupons and special deals, and to take advantage of digital ticketing and other creative applications.”

@MWC: All eyes on Neustar with a new mobile barcode clearing house and gomocode site
Posted by Bena Roberts on Feb 15, 2010 11:56
Tags: 3G vision, Mobile barcodes, mobile codes, mobile discovery, Neomedia, neustar

They say copying is the best form of flattery and we here at GoMo News are delighted by the new pilot programme site coming from Neutstar: www.gomocode.com.

Today, Neustar has announced the launch of its Mobile Barcode Clearing house Services.

What is it?
It is a clearing house for using mobile barcodes for the enterprise is a simple readable and distributable manner. It is for brands and advertisers. It will offer a scalable and simple one stop shop for mobile barcodes via a trusted source.

From the press release:
This coordinated approach allows each of the participants to benefit from the efforts of the others, including participation from barcode leaders NeoMedia, 3GVision, Mobile Data Systems, and Mobile Discovery, who are using the Neustar clearinghouse. The clearinghouse is open to other industry players who wish to benefit from the mass market and scale that can be achieved through an open, interoperable approach.

“With our Mobile Barcode Clearinghouse, Neustar can provide both campaign managers and Mobile Network Operators with a rich new approach to accessing mobilized content and services,” said Diane Strahan, vice president at Neustar. “Barcodes offer direct response accountability through measurable ROI and enable advertisers to adjust their content based on near real time tracking of each campaign’s performance. For consumers, barcodes offer an exciting ’shortcut’ to accessing rich content, helpful information and m-commerce.”

What we think?
Well. Neustar is a big fish in the mobile game and this mobile barcode clearing house is proof of interest in barcodes and also a focus on trust. With mobile barcode patents in place … and as Neustar is the partner that is licensing the mobile barcodes from NeoMedia …. there is no doubt in my mind that this will be THE safety net service for global advertising and marketing for major brands.
This is also great news for the mobile barcode industry.

and..now..VISA!!!


VISA "Check Your Balance" Contest at Mobile World Congress 2010

Visa, NeoMedia, and Neustar have joined forces to launch a promotional contest targeted to more than 30,000 attendees to Mobile World Congress 2010 in Barcelona during the week of February 15 to February 18. The contest is targeted to a savvy crowd of telecommunications and mobile marketing professionals to illustrate how easy, simple, and fast barcodes can make financial transactions.
Anyone with a camera phone can scan a barcode on the back of a gift card, for example, that would allow them to check the balance of their card. The contest allows a user to quickly scan a barcode on a faux Visa card that links to a WAP entry form. This contest in itself illustrates the point that a person no longer has to type a long difficult string of characters to get to a web site or a WAP page.
Event attendees receive a mock Visa Gift Card at registration check-in. The card is printed with instructions on how to enter the contest. First, they need to download a free barcode reader application using your mobile browse. Once they have downloaded the barcode reader, they'll just scan the barcode on the back of the card using their mobile phone. To enter the contest, they must enter their mobile phone number and answer the question: "Where will you 'go' with VISA"?. Every 30 minutes a winner of a 50 euro Visa gift card will be selected based on the most creative answer. The winners will be notified by text message and will need to come to the Neustar booth to redeem their prize. Attendees may enter the contest once a day throughout the Mobile World Congress event.
The campaign creates a compelling interaction with the Visa brand and quick gratification for the consumer, and illustrates how barcodes can make transactions simple and fast for consumers.

NeoMedia's NeoReader Mobile Code Application Ships Pre-Loaded on First Sony Ericsson Handset

NeoReader is in the Top 5 Most Downloaded Free Applications after Only First 2 Weeks of Availability on Fun&Downloads and PlayNow Content Portals

NeoMedia Technologies, Inc. ("NeoMedia") (OTC BB: NEOM) today announced the successful launch of its NeoReader™ pre-load program with Sony Ericsson. Last year, Sony Ericsson selected NeoMedia™ as its strategic 2D barcode partner and as part of that program, NeoReader is now being pre-installed across all Sony Ericsson handset platforms worldwide, beginning with the new Elm eco friendly handset, which is now available in multiple markets.

"We are thrilled with the successful start of the pre-load program," said Iain McCready, CEO of NeoMedia. "We look forward to continuing the momentum, as more and more Sony Ericsson customers also downloaded NeoReader to their existing handsets."

McCready continued, "Our partnership with Sony Ericsson helps make mobile barcode scanning simple and intuitive for consumers, just like existing text messaging and browser applications. In the rapidly evolving mobile code ecosystem, the role of handset manufacturers is key, and NeoMedia continues to work with them and the mobile carriers, advertising agencies and other infrastructure providers who are contributing to the growth of mobile codes as the next universal user interface for mobile content."

The NeoReader application allows mobile camera phones to easily access mobile content by simply reading open standard 2D barcodes, such as QR and DataMatrix, as well as the UPC and EAN barcodes currently found on most products worldwide. This eliminates the need for separate 1D and 2D reader applications and allows mobile users one click access to mobile content without having to type long URLs and navigating cumbersome mobile menus.

NeoMedia is the global leader in mobile barcode scanning, management and publishing solutions. Our technology platform allows mobile devices with cameras to read 2D barcodes and provide "one click" access to mobile content.

"This latest release enables consumers to take advantage of mobile barcode campaigns and services without needing to snap the camera," said Iain McCready, CEO of NeoMedia™.

This eliminates the need for separate 1D and 2D reader applications. NeoReader's user-friendly actions allows mobile users to avoid typing long URLs and navigating cumbersome mobile menus using their handset keyboards.
