Scan and Pay Plugin Features

In this article we will cover the features that get unlocked when you subscribe to and activate the Scan and Pay Plugin. 

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 scan a QR code to place an order from within a retail store. 

Scanning a QR code opens a mobile responsive website. The customer can select and place an order for the products that he wants and make payment online for the order placed. Once ordered, the customer can either go in for a curbside pickup or choose home delivery of the products. See: Scan and Pay Plugin - Features.
