Check-ins:
• It is a presence status, associated with some particular location.
• Each check-in awards the user points and sometimes "badges“
• “Check-in” – is one of the popular models for the modern internet services (especially – for geo services)

Traditional approach
• One check-in per location or predefined object (event)• Why do not allow business define this posting? • Why do not allow business define rules for benefits? • And why do we need some intermediate service for handling?
Anyway communication service cross posts data to Facebook• it is a posting from service (e.g. Foursquare) about the business

QRpon
• QRpon offers a specialized CMS (content management system) that lets any business create a special mobile web site.
• This web site lets users automatically, just after confirming the identity, post business-defined information on the Facebook’s wall.
• In the exchange for this posting (action) mobile web site will show a confirmation for the benefits.

QRpon vs. geo check-ins
• All steps (offer, check-in record and graphics, confirmation) are configurable
• Confirmation page (badge) could be defined programmatically. Rule based system where output depends on social graph data, time of the day, probability etc.
• Created page presented to visitors via QR-code• It is a physical check-in
