Abstract: A quick response (QR) proxy and protocol gateway for interfacing with a carrier network, a QR-equipped device, and a contact center and contact center database is disclosed. A data link is connected to a carrier network to receive QR codes and other data. Additional data links are connected to a contact center database and a QR-equipped device to obtain information used in determining routing and tagging instructions. A user interface is connected to the gateway to accept configurable conditions for determining routing instructions. There is a text conversion function and speech conversion function for each target enterprise contact center. Synchronization between stored user preferences to automated or semi-automated customer service routes is provided by a consumer preference template system.
