- Comment I have added a first reference relating to the use of this technology. A Highbeam search also turns up quite a number of articles on its use, from IKEA Seattle to cinemas in China. I haven't referenced these into the article as they look likely to derive from press releases, but they may indicate actual take-up and more solid references may be out there.

- Delete The newly-added reference does not devote significant attention to BCODE, and I cannot find any reliable third-party coverage significantly devoted to this topic. There are a huge number of systems that support sending a "unique identifier" to a mobile phone via SMS for validating a ticket/voucher/etc. This article about one such branded system is a subtle bit of WP:ADVERTISING, methinks. ɠǀɳ̩ςεΝɡbomb 04:58, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
