USPS 2012 Mobile Commerce & Personalization Promotion 1 IMb ® A Smart Alternative to QR Codes Intelligent Mail and IMb are trademarks of the United States Postal Service

USPS Mobile Commerce Initiative  2% discount on first class and standard class letters, flats and cards  Use of 2-dimensional barcode or a print/mobile technology that can be scanned by a mobile device  Mobile bar code must lead the recipient  to either a mobile-enhanced website where a PURCHASE can be made, or  to a personalized mobile-enhanced website that leads to a unique page directed to the specific recipient 2

QR Code - Challenges  Most QR codes are static and direct the recipient to a generic web site  Often a turn-off and perceived as not worth the effort to scan  Costly to design and print individualized QR codes  Requires scarce IT resources  Takes up premium real-estate on the face of the envelope  QR scan action is cumbersome to change after it has been created and printed  Redirect to a web site  Display a video or a voice clip, etc. 3

IMb as a QR code alternative  IMb Advantages Over QR Codes  Since IMb barcodes are already being printed on most Standard and First Class mail items, there is no need to create, manage or print new code  Customizing the action of an IMb scan for each mailing or recipient is as simple as updating a mailing database  Changing the action of an IMb scan can be done at any time (before or after the IMb has been printed)  IMb barcodes already provide the means of deriving the name and address of the recipient & this information can be used to pre-populate mobile optimized web pages  Real-time “touch marketing”; final delivery confirmation 4

GOOD NEWS USPS has extended the option to utilize the IMb in lieu of QR codes for their summer mobile promotion 5
