How to read barcodes with your phone in Hargeisa

You do not need to buy a barcode scanner. In CheckThis, an Android phone's camera reads the barcode, finds the item and shows how much you have in each store. Here are the five steps.

The top 5

  1. Open CheckThis in Chrome on the phoneSign in at checkthis.top in Chrome or Samsung Internet on an Android phone, and allow the camera when the browser asks.
  2. Tap 📷 Scan in Stock managementPoint the camera at the barcode: the item, its stock in each store and its cost appear, and the phone vibrates when it has read the code.
  3. Count or receive by scanningChoose “Add to the list”, scan each item, then turn the list into a stock count, a receipt of goods or a transfer. Differences go to a second person for approval.
  4. Sell at the counter with the cameraIn APOPS POS tap 📷 and scan the customer's items; each one is added at its price.
  5. Give barcodes to items that have noneGenerate internal barcodes (EAN-13 starting with 20) for loose goods and print labels on A4 sheets. Products already carrying a barcode keep theirs.

Questions

Does CheckThis work in Hargeisa and Somaliland?

Yes. CheckThis runs in the browser wherever there is internet, and the point of sale keeps selling offline.

Can customers pay by Zaad or eDahab?

Yes. At the counter the cashier types the Zaad or eDahab reference. For invoices, connect your own eDahab account (and WaafiPay for Zaad and cards) so customers can pay from their phone.

Can I use Somaliland shillings?

Keep your books in US dollars. When eDahab charges in Somaliland shillings, you set the exchange rate and it is kept on every payment.
