See every featureShopify POS only reads one barcode per variant, but most products have multiple codes. Supplier barcodes, internal SKUs, ISBNs, and legacy identifiers all cause failed scans at the register. FlexScan maps any additional identifier stored in product metafields to the correct variant. Staff scan as usual and POS finds the correct product every time. Add your alternate codes to metafields and FlexScan handles the rest.
Scan2Sell turns physical inventory into Shopify listings without manual data entry. It's built for liquidators, pallet resellers, and brick and mortar shops that need to digitize shelves of stock. Scan a barcode with your phone, a Bluetooth scanner gun, or your Shopify POS, and Scan2Sell auto-generates the title, description, photos, and variants. Review and edit anything, then publish to your store.
