What is StickyBits? Code Scanning Location and Product Based Social Check In Marketing

What Is Stickybits?

Stickybits is a free app you use to scan barcodes on all the stuff you love, instantly turning it into even more stuff you love. Scan a snowboard – win free lift passes. Scan some wireless headphones – see what people say about them and check out what your friends are listening to. Scan a box of frozen chalupas – get a 2fer for even más chalupas. You get the idea. Scan any barcode. Read reviews and comments, and share your own. Score a bunch of big discounts and free stuff – both for what you’re scanning and related things you’ll like.

With the free stickybits app you have the key to unlock every single barcode to reveal an infinite world of info and deals. With a quick scan, you enter a social space where you can post and read info, reviews, tweets and videos. You can also grab details and promos attached to products, which you can cash in instantly.

Want the best stuff first? Compete in challenges to win free products and get points for stuff you’ve scanned – the more points you nab, the earlier you get in on the next challenge. (Think: never-ending treasure hunt. More scans = more scratch.)

Stickybits Is Honing Its Object Check-Ins To Be More Brand-Friendly

The next version of stickybits, which is coming out in October, aims to give people more reasons to scan and share their scanned objects by honing the product and making it into more of a platform for unlocking rewards and coupons. Stickybits wants to reposition itself as an app for object check-ins.

The new app, V2, will offer brands and businesses four ways to create object check-ins: coupons, group deals, location, and product combo rewards.

Not sure what Stickybits is? Go to http://www.Stickybits.com . Basically you buy stickers online (eg from Amazon here http://www.stickybits.com/buystickers/ and then wait a week or two for delivery) then you can stick them on whatever you want. Then you download the stickybits app to your iphone or smartphone, open it up, and point your phone's camera at the barcode on the stickybits sticker. Then you can "attach" an image or message or url or video to that barcode and sticker. You can then stick that sticker onto whatever you want -- something in a public place, or perhaps a product. When others scan that sticker you can receive an email notification letting you know the physical location of the scan, who scanned it (if they're logged in to stickybits) and what, if anything, they attached to the sticker as their digital sticky bit. Looking forward to seeing these new object check in upgrades.
