QR Barcode Scanner
Back to top
Once activated, a staff member simply needs to scan the QR Barcode on a customer's invoice to instantly pull up the booking in their app. This saves valuable time compared to locating the booking manually, even if all you have to do is visit the Today group of bookings.
Being able to scan like this gets you through a line of eager customers very quickly indeed. In order to complete the scan, point your device's camera at the QR code on the customer's invoice. You should be able to see the QR code image on your screen. Once the app recognizes the QR code, it automatically pulls up the booking details for you.
Once the booking pops up on the screen, the staff member can tap the Check-In Switch and the customer is checked in. "Next!". For additional details on QR codes, including how to activate the add-on through the desktop site, please go here.
