Scanning

Scanning a customer's card

Use the Scan tab's camera to read a customer's QR code, or look them up by phone number if the camera isn't an option.

Updated 9 September 2026العربية

The Scan tab is where every visit gets recorded — by camera or by phone-number lookup.

Scan with the camera

  1. Open the Scan tab

    Staff whose role is set to land there open straight into it.

  2. Allow camera access

    Your browser will ask for permission the first time.

  3. Point the camera at the QR code

    This works whether the customer's card is in Apple Wallet, Google Wallet, or their web card.

  4. Confirm the customer

    Waya identifies them and opens their card for the next action.

Look up by phone number

If the camera isn't available, or the code won't scan, switch to phone-number lookup instead. Type the customer's number and select their profile from the results.

Frequently asked questions

What if a customer doesn't have their wallet card handy?

Use phone-number lookup instead of the camera — type the number they enrolled with and select their profile from the results.

Does the camera work with any wallet type?

Yes — the camera reads the QR code whether the customer's card is in Apple Wallet, Google Wallet, or their web card fallback.
