Why does it matter? »
Brand and product pirates in emerging markets pose a significant risk to legitimate manufacturers which leads to the following;
- Brand degradation
- Decrease in sales
- Consumer purchasing apprehension
- Exposure to lawsuits.
Over $500 billion in counterfeit products are traded yearly, depriving genuine businesses of significant revenue while compounding the job of government enforcement and regulatory bodies.
How does it work? »
- The consumers purchase a product
- They scratch and text a simple numeric code unique to the product to a number provided to them for free.
- The consumers instantly receive confirmation of the authenticity of the product.
Brand owners can then:
- Send personalized real-time offers at the point of purchase.
- Lockdown supply chains to prevent product diversion.
- Access live market intelligence in cash-based societies.
