Vouchers in the context of resellers are their allocations of barcodes. These are recognised by the system, and are instantly redeemable on scan.
📘 EXAMPLE 1
You pre-print booklets with QR codes and hand them out to your hotel concierges. This may be because the product is too cheap to warrant printing a voucher. You will generate these QR codes within this section. The hotel concierge sells a pre-printed voucher and stamps it, the customer goes to the bus stop, the seller scans the voucher and automatically a ticket is printed.
📘 EXAMPLE 2
Groupon comes to the operator and strikes a deal: they will sell a certain amount of tickets for a reduced rate and the clients will redeem the vouchers with a set of codes they send to the operator. The operator imports these codes into the vouchers and assigns it to the product and tier. A customer comes with the voucher, it is scanned, and a ticket gets printed automatically.
