Barcode scanner POS software for Kenya
Scan instead of typing: at the till, when you receive stock and when you count it. You can start with the camera of the phone you already have.
Where scanning helps
- At the till: scan each item, and the price and stock come with it
- Receiving a delivery: scan items into stock
- Stock counts: scan what is on the shelf
- Items without a barcode can be searched by name
What you need
- A phone with BlueDuka: its camera works as a scanner
- Or a USB or Bluetooth barcode scanner, if you already have one
