What is 2D BARCODE

Tag barcodes are the newest edition of 2D barcodes. They are more flexible than older formats by providing better design and content capability. Tag barcodes are linked to data sources and are suitable for use with mobile sites. Content can be updated at any time without requiring any tag alteration. These tags can be used on business cards, resumes, and custom company images; they can be printed in black and white or color. The Quick Response Code (QR) was the first 2D barcode. It’s best suited for simple designs that don’t require integration with your branding.
