ZIM integrated Shipping today announced that starting December, the B/L’s will include a QR Code located on the top right, at the “Remarks” section of the B/L, the company said in its press release.
This new feature enables a quick and immediate recognition of the B/L details by any smartphone or tablet application, linking automatically to the B/L’s tracing details on ZIM’s web site. With this new feature, the customer or agent can scan the code and instantly be connected to the tracing results page on the web, saving time and avoiding typing errors.
Activating and using the QR code requires a QR Code application and an internet connection on the smartphone/tablet.
Nissim Yochai, VP Customer Relations, ZIM: "This simple benefit is part of our efforts to think ahead, make it simple and improve customers service in every way possible".
