Alternatives To QR Codes

What's the best alternative to the popular QR Code? That's easy...

Lookup Codes!

Lookup codes are the simplest way to direct people to something they need or will find useful. They produce the same end result of a QR Code but are a great alternative because they don't require a camera or QR Code scanner. They are also instantly readable by any human on the planet - no technology required!

Lookup Codes are perfect for all types of communication and can be used by anyone who can visit a website to enter them.

Here's an example.

First, visit our POG homepage. Once there enter the following lookup code in the main box provided...
