Increase Customer & Fan Engagement on your Mobile App using Audio QR Codes by TONE
What Is TONE?
TONE Technologies, in their simplest form, are audio QR codes or audio beacons. The patented technology utilizes inaudible sound fragments called “TONE-Tags” to deliver ads, coupons, special offers, or other content to any smartphone within range, enabling companies to activate and monetize audiences ANYWHERE and ANYTIME, all without the expensive hardware of traditional audio tech.
How it Works
TONE can be delivered either digitally or physically. In a digital implementation, a TONE-Tag is layered into any broadcast, song or podcast, live performance, interview, website, in-venue PA system, or virtually any medium with sound. For physical spaces, specialized TONE-Emitters—very small, battery-powered transmitters—emit TONE-Tags up to 50 feet, perfect for use in a department, store shelf, display, or signage. Once the TONE-Tag is perceived by a mobile device, it triggers the consumer’s mobile phone and delivers content. The process is 100% passive.
No Infrastructure to Buy
Can be tied into any app with no added hardware. Zero infrastructure investment.
No Friction
100% passive nature means maximum engagement regardless of channel.
Unlimited Use
Flexibility means multi-channel delivery. Zero friction for users.
