You can send bar codes to mobile in 3 ways. But the best way is with wap push because is compatible with all mobile phones. If you are interested, plese let me know.

To expand on Dan's response, you would send a WAP push pointing to a URL for the bar code image.

WAP Push does require that the receiver have WAP/web services enabled for their phone.

Another alternative is using Nokia Smart Messaging or EMS. I've seen a few services going the Nokia Smart Messaging route, because quite a few phones from other manufacturers support simple black and white picture messaging from the Nokia Smart Messaging specification.

Generally speaking, smart phones are dumb when it comes to supporting the GSM modem protocols. You can find discussion of what phones work as GSM modems in the following thread: http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/4218.html
