Handheld reader
Carry it to read many garments at once on rails, on shelves and in incoming cartons. You reconcile stock without scanning items one by one as you would with barcodes.

- Receiving checksRead the garments in a carton and match them to the order quantity
- Item searchSound guides you to the item you're looking for
- No line of sight needed
- Unlike barcodes, there's no hunting for each label to scan it. It reads labels sewn inside garments, too.
- With RFID-X
- Reads the UHF side of the RFID-X sewn-in label. The NFC side is read by shoppers' phones.
- Inventory software
- Sends read results to your inventory software and updates store stock right away.

Frequently asked questions
How is it different from a barcode scanner?
With barcodes, you find and scan items one at a time. An RFID reader reads many garments at once, even when the labels are out of sight. Our guide “From barcode counts to RFID counts” shows how stock counts change.
Can it read garments without a label?
No. Each garment needs an RFID label. Start finished garments with hang tags or sticker labels, and new garments with the RFID-X sewn-in label.
Can I use it in stores in other countries?
UHF bands differ by country, so we choose a reader set up for the country where your stores are.
How many do I need?
It depends on store size, number of SKUs and how often you count. Tell us about your stores and we'll suggest a number.
How many handheld readers will you need?
Tell us how many stores and SKUs you have and what software you use, and we'll tell you how many readers you need.
