One loose lure on the counter. Which one just sold?

A customer puts one loose lure on the counter. It came from a bin where every lure shares one barcode. Scan that lure, and LureScan shows which lure it is, its price and the barcode your POS system (till) already has.

In under 40 seconds, our founder Cordarro Gordon scans a single loose lure and LureScan shows which lure it is.

The moment at the counter

Most sales of loose lures look the same. A customer digs through a bin of soft plastics, picks one or two, and brings them to the counter.

Whoever is behind the counter now has a small job to do: find the right price and ring it up. With a bin of lures in one price group, that usually means one barcode for all of them. We explained how price groups work in our post on loose lures in price groups.

What the POS system sees

The lure gets rung up under the group barcode. The sale goes through, and the POS system knows the bin sold, not which lure. More on that in what the POS system actually sees.

So the lure on the counter, the one the customer chose out of everything in the bin, leaves the shop without a name in your records.

Scan the lure, then ring it up

LureScan adds one step at the counter, with the POS system you already have.

1. Scan the loose lure.
2. LureScan shows which lure it is, its price and the barcode your POS system already has.
3. Ring it up in your POS system as usual.

No new SKUs. The barcode is the one you already use for that group. And each lure you scan shows which one sold. We wrote about why that matters in the bestseller you can't see and one barcode, which lure?.

We're also building an admin portal to see what sells, and when. It isn't live yet, and we'll share it here when it's ready.

Easier for new staff

Loose lures are already in the LureScan database in the app. A new person at the counter doesn't need a binder or a sheet of papers to tell one loose lure from another. They scan the lure, and the barcode is already assigned in the app.
