Mobile checkout
Discover how to configure mobile checkout options for your app in the CapiraMobile Staff Dashboard.
Overview
The mobile checkout functionality is available as a standard screen. To allow patrons to checkout from within the CapiraMobile app, you must first add a corresponding button for it to the Welcome screen or any Custom screen. For more information, see Screens.
When mobile checkout is enabled, patrons can checkout with two methods:
- By using their mobile phone camera to scan a barcode.
- By selecting Manual Entry on the mobile checkout screen and typing in a barcode.
