Boon Lay MRT Station - QR Code Shopping Wall

QR Code Shopping Wall

Similar to those at train stations in South Korea, this is an interactive media launched on 7 December 2011 by SMRT in partnership with Cold Storage to enhance the commuters' travelling experience. Using a camera phone with QR code reader installed, one can purchase the items displayed on the media by simply flashing their camera phones on the items and the items would be delivered to them upon payment through the various credit cards.

Boon Lay MRT Station, alongside Bugis MRT Station, was the first to have such media installed.
