October 8, 2026 – foodbank.city, the cloud-based food bank management platform, today highlighted Barcode Check-In, one of the most popular features on its platform. Barcode Check-In lets food banks check in a family instantly by scanning the family’s barcode card, with no typing and no wait.

Check-in is the first step of every visit. With Barcode Check-In, staff and volunteers scan a family’s barcode card instead of typing in their details, so the family is checked in on the spot and their visit can begin without a wait.

Barcode Check-In works with any USB or Bluetooth scanner, so food banks can check families in using the scanner that suits their check-in station.

Barcode Check-In is part of foodbank.city’s Client & Guest Management tools and, like every tool in the platform’s complete feature set, is included with no extra costs.
