NFC stands for Near Field Communications.

The premise of which is to place the phone or object equipped with NFC next to the promotion (or whatever it is) that’s also equipped with NFC, getting them to communicate and transfer information.

QR stands for Quick Response code.

You get a blockyweird graphic thingy that you snap a picture via an application and then it tells you what promo it holds.

In terms of accessibility and idiot-proofness, I think NFC might win. I don’t think QR is that quick after all. Don’t you still require a connection to the Internet? In addition, what about phones that aren’t equipped with a camera?

Which do you think is the lesser of two evils?
