Can I use a barcode scanner to add inventory in the POS app?

Yes, I’m brand new to this and useless with computers. So, I am only wanting to use the POS App. (No CC processing)
Questions:
Can I ADD products to inventory using the barcode scanner? (Basically, scan the item barcode, then enter the product info, price and quantity into the system)
Am I restricted to buying only the barcode scanners direct from Spotify?

Help!

Hi @1Britbloke ,

It sounds like you’re in search of an easy-to-use POS system with a user-friendly interface and a seamless way to add products to your inventory. In that case, I’d highly recommend ConnectPOS! Their POS system offers a convenient method for adding products via CSV files, which is often faster than using a barcode scanner since you can update all product information, images, prices, and quantities at once. They even provide a sample CSV template to make this process easier or you can also create new products directly within the POS system.

As for your second question, I think Shopify doesn’t restrict the use of barcode scanners. It’s better if you find an integrated barcode with your POS. And I know ConnectPOS has lots of options! They are available on the Shopify marketplace so you can book a demo
