Scan it. Find it. Ship it.
Use any USB or Bluetooth barcode scanner to verify orders before shipping, look up products in seconds, and keep your fulfillment team moving. Works with handheld scanners and barcode scanner apps on your phone.
Every scan prevents a mistake.
After a live show, your team is packing dozens or hundreds of orders. Without scanning, mistakes happen. Wrong size, wrong color, wrong product entirely. The customer gets a package that doesn't match what they ordered, and now you're paying for return shipping on top of losing the sale.
A barcode scan takes one second and confirms the product matches the order. If it doesn't match, you get a warning before the label prints. That one-second scan is the difference between 95% packing accuracy and 99.5%+.
Scanning also works in the inventory section. Scan any product barcode and Buy Social pulls it up. No searching through hundreds of SKUs, no scrolling through product lists. Point, scan, done.
Scan to verify before you ship
When packing an order, scan each item's barcode. Buy Social checks it against the order and confirms it matches. If something doesn't match, you see a warning before the label prints. Your team catches mistakes at the packing table instead of hearing about them from customers.
Scan to find any product
In the product or inventory section, point your scanner at a barcode and Buy Social pulls up that product immediately. Stock levels, pricing, variants, location in the warehouse. No typing product names into a search bar, no scrolling through pages of SKUs. Useful for receiving inventory, doing stock counts, or checking product details on the warehouse floor.
Works with the scanner you already have
USB scanners
Plug in any standard USB barcode scanner and start scanning. No drivers, no setup. The scanner acts as a keyboard input, and Buy Social reads it automatically.
Bluetooth scanners
Pair a Bluetooth scanner for wireless mobility around your warehouse or packing station. Walk the floor doing inventory counts without being tethered to a desk.
Barcode scanner apps
No hardware? Use a barcode scanner app on your phone camera. Point your phone at a barcode and Buy Social pulls up the product. Good for occasional scanning when you don't need a dedicated device.
Order verification
Scan each item as you pack it. Buy Social confirms the product matches the order. Wrong item? You get a warning before the shipping label prints. Catches mistakes before they leave your warehouse.
Product lookup
Scan a barcode in the inventory or product section and the product page opens right away. Stock levels, pricing, variants, and warehouse location all visible in one scan.
No brand restrictions
Any USB or Bluetooth barcode scanner that uses keyboard emulation (HID mode) works with Buy Social. Zebra, Honeywell, Socket Mobile, or a $30 scanner from Amazon. They all work the same way.
