Introduction

A Plugin is a small, but effective software module that seamlessly integrates with Tagrain to extend the functionality and add features to the existing Tagrain edition. Scan and Pay Plugin is a software module that when subscribed to and activated allows customers to use their smartphones to place an order using the Mobile Responsive Website and make payment online for the order placed.
