According to a new study, 62% of Fortune 50 companies have mobile websites, mobile apps, mobile payments and QR codes, but they don’t proudly display them. The study by communications firm Burson-Marsteller, and Proof Integrated shows that only 39% of the companies announce their mobile offerings on corporate websites. Some possible reasons include fear of technology, fear of the risks of change and fear of being different.

Some additional findings:

  • Twenty-two percent of Fortune 50 companies are communicating with stakeholders via SMS/text message.
  • Forty-three percent of the Fortune 50 have mobile websites or applications that are enabled for mobile transactions such as shopping, updating account information, refilling prescriptions or transferring money.
  • Twenty-two percent of the Fortune 50 are placing QR codes in magazines, on billboards, or at any convenient location to deliver relevant content to smartphone users.
