Access Mobility 24 in partnership with the Ryan Group is pleased to announce that we have launched Beacons at the University of Illinois. The Beacons are delivering Food Offers, discounts, health and nutrition tips, promotions etc right to the students smartphones. This is a very practical use of Beacons that will keep students engaged and drive on campus revenue in the coffee shops, c-stores, restaurants, dining halls and the Food Truck.
The App is called Campus Extras and is available in iOS and Android. It is free for the students to download and a great way to save them some money throughout the school year. You can also see more at www.campusextras.com

9 年That is some good news I guess. If anything, the accessibility will give the students a clearer picture of how much they are getting ripped off by the University. In related news, could you develop an app that will activate the beacon on the University of Illinois' football program? I think that woujld have a far bigger impact on the student body and the alumni of the school by NOT being the laughing stock of the Big Ten conference. Thank you.

9 年As a parent of a student I think that the focus ought to be on other issues besides driving revenue for local vendors. How about some information services about tutors, health services, security issues. I think we ought to get our priorities straight and not be driving mass consumerism and trying to capitalize on impulse purchases. Let's get some balance here and use the technology to improve the students learning and not health.
