Scan Price Embedded Barcodes in Shopify POS
Sell products by weight using retail scale barcodes
If you use retail scales that print barcode labels, Shopify Point Of Sale does not natively interpret price embedded barcodes. This means staff often need to manually enter prices at checkout.
Our app allows Shopify POS to read price embedded barcodes so the correct product and price are added automatically when scanned.
How price embedded barcodes work with Shopify POS
Retail scales generate barcode labels that include the total price of a weighed product. These are commonly used in food retail.
With this app
No manual entry required
Track volume and revenue by product
View the total quantity sold and revenue generated for each price embedded barcode product.
Track and update fractional inventory
The app includes its own inventory management functionality for weighed goods within the app.
As products are sold through Shopify POS using price embedded barcodes, the app tracks and updates inventory for weighed products, helping you maintain more accurate stock levels without manual calculations or adjustments.

Excellent support and essential tool for weighted products! This app is a game-changer for anyone selling products by weight or price-embedded barcodes in Shopify POS.
But what truly sets it apart is the incredible developer support. I requested a specific UI improvement (a list of scanned items within the modal window) to speed up my checkout process. Gary implemented the change in less than 24 hours! Now I can scan multiple items without closing the window, seeing the full history of names and prices.
Highly recommended for any professional store. Five stars!

I run a small grocery store that sells bulk foods by weight, so having a reliable price-embedded barcode solution is essential. After a recent Shopify update made my previous barcode app too slow to use effectively, I started looking for an alternative and found the VS Price Embedded Barcodes App. After signing up for the free trial, Gary reached out personally to see if I needed any help... What really impressed me was the level of support. As we worked through my setup, I identified a few features that would make the app much more useful for my specific workflow. Gary wrote custom code and had the functionality implemented within 24 hours.
The app now does exactly what I need it to do, and it does it quickly. The custom reporting features have been incredibly valuable, and the overall experience has been outstanding. It's rare to find this combination of responsive support, willingness to listen to customer feedback, and rapid development. Highly recommended.
