In its retail stores, Nintendo is introducing the QR-Code Shopping Assistant, becoming the first brand to roll out the technology from Icecat.
Since staffing shortages and gaps in product knowledge can be barriers that prevent consumers from making purchases, this technology provides a helping hand by adding richness to the in-store shopping experience. By scanning the QR code with a mobile device, shoppers access a digital product story with in-depth specifications, comparison tools, user reviews, instructional videos and more to inform a confident purchase.
Thanks to Icecat's tech, brands can tailor the product information shown with the QR-Code Shopping Assistant in order to match their marketing goals and connect with their intended target audience.
