How Jisp boosted its app’s performance with the Scanbot Barcode Scanner SDK
Jisp provides solutions for loyalty reward programs and product vouchers. Through Jisp’s “Scan & Save” app, users can access exclusive discounts on branded products sold in convenience stores. Brands can target people who shop in convenience stores with a store- specific loyalty solution – one that also allows each store to reward its customers.
Since Jisp planned to maintain and grow operations both in the UK and overseas, it was looking for a solution that would be cost-efficient while still providing instant scans of all barcode types commonly used in retail.
We highly recommend working with Scanbot SDK and their solutions. Due in part to a fantastic team who ensured that Jisp, our solution, was able to fully utilize their SDK. They were courteous and polite in their manner throughout the process and also offer complimentary aftercare to ensure all functions are optimized. They have been fast to reply, able to extend our offering through new barcodes, and this has all happened without any downtime or issues.
Intuitive, reliable barcode scanning is essential for Jisp’s solution: The retailers’ customers have to scan product barcodes to benefit from deals, and this must not disrupt their overall shopping experience.
The Scanbot Barcode Scanner SDK works 100% offline and scans all major 1D and 2D barcode types. It also robustly scans even damaged or tiny barcodes in less-than-ideal environments, especially in bad lighting. Combined with an incredible speed of 0.04 seconds per scan, this makes it ideal for use in retail.
A closer look at the app’s enhanced barcode scanning feature

In a participating store, a customer opens the Jisp app “Scan & Save.” Through a “find voucher” feature, they can explore discount offers on products.

Customers have to scan the product barcode to get the discount. Store lighting conditions may not be ideal for scanning, and the barcode may also be damaged.

Thanks to the Scanbot Barcode Scanner SDK, Jisp is able to offer fast and frictionless barcode scanning to both retailers and their customers. The SDK scans all common retail barcodes, even in low lighting, even if they are damaged.
The Jisp team thoroughly evaluated the Scanbot Barcode Scanner SDK against their previous solution. Scanbot SDK won out due to a combination of factors: its unbeatable pricing for Jisp’s B2C and B2B solutions, which matched its superior performance, and Scanbot SDK’s exceptional customer support. As such, Jisp was able to scale at the rapid pace needed using the Scanbot Barcode Scanner SDK.
The Jisp team was impressed by the comprehensive support the Scanbot SDK team offered them – it enabled a fast transition without hiccups. They were able to implement and test the Scanbot Barcode Scanner SDK, and go live with their improved apps, within a month.
With its high quality and predictable cost, the SDK enables Jisp to offer fast and smooth barcode scanning to both retailers and their customers.
