Paid For Layers, New App

Published on Thursday, May 6, 2010 by
Layar content publishers, like us, now have the opportunity to sell their layers through the new Layar app. The process requires a PayPal account and currently only works in the UK, USA, Canada and Australia because of this. It is understood that Layar are planning on opening up payments for the rest of the world but not timescales have been released.
 
The first paid content layers include among others:

  • Berlitz City Guides: Berlitz helps people experience the city’s highlights: the best attractions, coziest restaurants, most comfortable hotels, coolest places to shop and most fashionable nightlife.
  • Mouse Reality for Disney World and Disneyland: Helps find and navigate all attractions, shows, shops, dining, transportation, and more in Disneyland and Disney World.
  • EyeTour: Explore Puerto Rico’s natural beauty and rich cultural heritage through exclusive video content of historical sites, museums, restaurants, parks and more.
  • UK sold prices: ‘Sold House Price Data 2010? – Check the latest UK residential Sold Price information as recorded by the Land Registry while on the move.

More information can be found here.
 

 

We’re sure to see a wide range of new layers over the coming months, and are likely to see more AR gaming experiences as developers push the limits of Layar. It will be interesting to see how the market opens up and which type of content sells and which doesn’t.
