Scanner

Overview - Why scanning?

Scanner is a great solution for closing in-store communication and marketing promotions with your customers. Scanning QR is much faster than typing phone number or name, and this is the reason for doing it. With scanning QR code you can do the following:

• Redeem Coupon / points

• Collect visits / points

• Pay - TBD

Set Up

Toast POS - Honeywall Genesis 7580g (with USB)

2D with USB Scanner

QR code Configuration

There is some configuration that needs to be done to set up a scanner with the Toast tablets. You will need a Honeywell 7580G-2 and if QR scanning functionality has not been set up already on that device, you will need to scan several QR codes to properly set it up: https://www.mediaform.de/fileadmin/support/handbuecher/barcodescanner/honeywell/Hon_Genisis7580-UG_Rev_C.pdf, (see pages 6-38).

You need to scan 3 barcodes, one after the other in order to enable scanning:

The scanner's default is to scan paper and not LED screens. you may have difficulty scanning from the phone/computer. To get the best results while setting up the device, print this first and scan from the paper.

While setting up you will also have to press the trigger button while scanning.

Step 1) Enabling QR codes:

Step 2) Enabling using QR codes with the tablet:

Step 3) Allowing the scanner to scan from a phone, without clicking the trigger button:

Optional A) Turn Scanner LED Off immediately after reading the barcode:

Optional B) LED Illumination:

Scanning with Toast

In Toast, After starting a new order (and adding all of the customer's items), press on Rewards

Customers Look Up - name, phone, email

And then "Lookup or redeem"

(old version) And then you'll see this screen:

• If you're using a Honeywell scanner, just scan the QR code with the scanner (you don't need to press anything).

• If you're using the tablet's camera, press on the "Scan QR code with Camera" and then scan with the camera.

(new version) In Toast's new loyalty the screen has changed to the following screen:

In this setup, you don't need to press anything in order to scan. just place the QR code in front of the reader and the reader will scan the barcode. If you'll press on "Scan" you'll be forwarded to the front facing camera in order to scan the barcode using the camera.

Ask the customer to scan his/her QR code:

Just open the app, on the home page screen, you should see a button says "SCAN"

App QR code - face to scanner

Redeeming a gift

You can view the following video in order to learn how to redeem a coupon.

Important!

You'll need to add the relevant item to the order so that the reward will be clickable!

For example, if you have a reward that provides a strawberry shake, it'll be redeemable only after you'll add the shake to the order; before, it would be grayed out.

All customer's relevant coupons will be displayed, and a visit will be added to the customer on Appfront's system.
