See how it works:

If you’re a game developer, entrepreneur, or marketer, Enjin Beam is a great way to galvanize your audience.

QR Codes Can Be Placed Anywhere

This first-of-its-kind technology enables you to distribute valuable blockchain-based items via any visually accessible medium, such as:

Online Marketing: Websites, Emails, Social Media
Video: Television, YouTube, Twitch, Udemy
Traditional Advertising: Billboards, Posters, Stickers, Magazines
Software Products: Apps, SaaS, Games
Purchased Products: Packaging, Tags, Receipts
Presentations: Speeches, Lectures, Workshops
Location-Based: Attractions, Stores, Events

How to Beam

If you’re a developer, marketer, or entrepreneur, you can execute a QR-drop campaign in a few simple steps:

Create your blockchain assets via the Enjin Platform or Mintshop.
Contact us to discuss having a QR code created for fast, easy asset distribution.
Post the QR code on websites, in emails, social media, videos, posters, flyers, magazines, receipts, packaging, signage, inside apps or games — literally any visually accessible medium.
Your audience will scan the QR code and receive their blockchain-based currency, assets, vouchers, certificates, or whatever other items you decide to mint.

The Lootdrop

Enjin Beam can be used to send one item to one person, multiple items to multiple people, random items to random people, or any combination of the above.

Everyone that scans a Lootdrop QR code will receive a prize that is randomly selected by the system from a list of predefined items.

Just scan and claim—simple as that.

The Only QR Scanner You’ll Ever Need

The scanner is fully functioning, which means it can be used to scan Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin payments. It even works with QR codes tied to website links.

We’ve even included SMS verification to ensure a safe, fair claiming process.

Each QR creator can choose how often users can claim each code, and phone number verification ensures those rules are enforced.

Privacy Note: Enjin is devoted to privacy and does not store users’ phone numbers. All sensitive information is obfuscated using cryptographic hash functions and will not be accessible by anyone.

I’m sure you’re excited to learn more about how this technology can be used.

Well, let’s skip the hypotheticals—we have forward-thinking minds working on implementing this technology right now.

Giveaways

To celebrate the release of Enjin Beam, we will be hosting a massive giveaway right here in this blog post.

3,674 items backed by a total of 146,350 Enjin Coin (ENJ) will be up for grabs.

Here’s a list of prizes:

This giveaway runs until the 28th November 2018, 0:00:00 UTC.

Token Sales

Until now, buying and receiving tokens has been a convoluted process inaccessible to the general public.

Now, any business can create tokens, sell them through an online store, and distribute them via Enjin Beam — which means any customer can purchase a token through a normal shopping cart, scan a QR code, and receive the blockchain item they purchased.

In September, 9Lives Arena raised $41,845 US in a successful Kickstarter campaign by offering ERC-1155 collectibles as rewards. The time is drawing near to distribute items to their Kickstarter backers, and they have signed on to trial Enjin Beam as the way forward.

The AAA-quality game producer will send QR codes to pre-sale participants, who will then be able to scan and receive the items within minutes.

Certificates of Authenticity

Online art dealer BronzeBond Studios and fashion retailers O’Kill and Swagpie Apparel have used Mintshop to create blockchain-based certificates of authenticity.

BronzeBond Studios and O’Kill will email QR codes along with confirmation of each purchase, providing customers with proof of ownership, rarity, and provenance over their exclusive items.

Alternatively, Swagpie Apparel’s sales staff will walk each customer through QR scanning system as they process their purchase in-store.

Bronze Bond Studios has already received positive feedback from their customers.

“I’m very excited to see how these ERC-1155 tokens work, especially for tokenized digital art. It’s like having a blockchain-powered gallery in my phone.”

Membership Tokens

Blockchain game publications Crypto Gamers Community, eGamers.io, and The Crypto Collectors have created membership tokens for their most engaged users and will utilize Enjin Beam to distribute these tokens quickly and easily to their audience.
