Reduce costs and increase sales with the applications of today…and tomorrow
The adaptable DS9808 is at home in a wide variety of retail operations. For countries that utilize a PDF417 bar code on a national ID card or drivers’ license, embedded and server-based parsing agents can decode identification information with very little effort. Since parsing is executed either in the scanner or the host, department, specialty and convenience stores as well as pharmacies
can implement a wide range of applications to improve productivity, customer service, customer retention and sales. For example, a quick scan can instantly and accurately auto-populate a credit application, so customers don’t have to take the time to fill out application forms. In the pharmacy, a quick scan captures a customer’s information to help meet compliance regulations for the
purchase of certain over-the-counter and prescription medications. Retailers who sell items with age restrictions can prevent unlawful transactions with a quick scan of a driver’s license for automatic age verification. At the returns desk, a quick scan helps prevent fraudulent
returns, even if you do not require receipts. The DS9808 also decodes 1D and 2D bar codes from mobile phone displays, so you can roll out mobile coupons, mobile payment, mobile boarding passes, digital loyalty and other emerging mobile commerce applications. And support for an optional RFID module* enables your retail operation to embrace the benefits of RFID in the future.
