Abstract

Disclosed are various embodiments for providing a plurality of notifications to mobile devices. A broadcast is rendered by a device that is detected by a mobile device. Software on the mobile device decodes the broadcast to obtain an identification number associated with a notification. The mobile device requests a notification based at least on the identification number. A notification is sent to the mobile device if certain requirements associated with the notification are met. The notification may then be rendered on a display of the mobile device.
