A bCODE is a simple SMS text message that looks something like this:
| bCODE |
| =TYHGV=WPLKN= |
| =XCNET=9Y32<= |
| =5YUFK=4UWKX= |
This text message is read from the screen of a mobile phone/device and decoded into a unique token ID. This ID can then be used to supply the consumer with their own unique experience.
