Digimarc (NASDAQ: DMRC) announced results from a 10-week pilot at ten Schnucks Markets stores showing its new gift card tamper-evident watermark solution eliminated fraud and sped checkout.

The companies report the solution is over 3x more secure than card-only features, produced zero incidents of fraud in an initial grocery retailer rollout, and reduced checkout time via faster scanning and simplified cashier workflow. Zebra plans to roll out Digimarc’s newest on-scanner software across its retail scanner portfolio in early 2026, promising greater tamper detection and improved Items Per Minute (IPM).
Honeywell (NYSE: HON) will integrate Digimarc on-scanner software across its handheld retail scanners by early 2026 to help retailers detect tampered gift cards and speed checkout. Digimarc released the latest software in November 2025, and Honeywell has already configured the Xenon XP 1950 with the prior on-scanner build. The partnership targets rising gift card fraud amid a global gift card market valued at $1.24 trillion in 2024 and projected to reach $2.31 trillion by 2030. Retailers using the solution report fewer fraud incidents and faster first-pass reads; Honeywell will demo the solution at NRF January 2026 (Booth 3538).
BERO Brewing partnered with Digimarc (NASDAQ: DMRC) to launch an omnichannel loyalty program that uses Digimarc’s connected packaging and serialized QR codes to authenticate purchases, prevent fraud, and enable instant reward redemption across channels.

Program benefits for paid BEROMASTER members include free shipping, 10% off every purchase, early product access, double-credit launch campaigns (e.g., June 2025 rollout), quarterly gifts, and community events. Digimarc says the platform enables secure, scalable omnichannel tracking and future data-driven direct communications.
