Barcodes
Learn how to assign barcodes to your products.
Assigning a barcode to a product will allow you to scan that product on the Dripos Hub App and have it add to the cart on your barcode scanner host Point of Sale device.
You are able to assign a barcode to any of your products through the Web Dashboard.
