The cannabis industry is transitioning to the new GS1 DataMatrix barcode standard, which offers several advantages, including improved scanning reliability, a smaller footprint on packaging, and the ability to encode more product information.

We’ve thoroughly tested these new barcodes with our supported scanners using both lot-tracked and non-lot-tracked products. All tests have been successful, ensuring a smooth transition for your operations.

The S720 scanner has not yet been tested, but we are actively working with Socket Mobile to secure a unit for testing. We’ll update you as soon as we have results.

We’re confident that this transition will be seamless for our customers. If you have any questions or concerns about how this change might affect your operations, don’t hesitate to reach out to our support team.

Thank you for your continued trust in us as your partner in the cannabis industry. We’re here to help every step of the way.

We’re excited to announce an exciting new feature in BLAZE ECOM™ designed specifically to enhance the customer experience for cannabis retailers across Canada — Express Checkout for Kiosk Orders.

How it Works

Enabling this feature setting allows customers to place orders quickly without providing any sensitive contact information such as an email or phone number. Once the order is placed, customers can head directly to the express pick-up area to collect their products.

Offer a frictionless, self-service kiosk where customers can easily browse your menu, discover new products, and place orders simply by providing their first and last names. This speeds up the ordering process and allows customers to skip the line.

Why You'll Love Express Checkout Kiosk Orders

• Faster, Frictionless Kiosk Orders: Customers can place orders quickly without verifying their email address or responding to a 2FA SMS.
• Improve Staff Efficiency: Free up your team to focus on personalized service while kiosks handle routine transactions.
• Protect Customer Privacy: Anonymous kiosk orders allow customers to place orders discreetly without sharing personal contact information.

Staying competitive means prioritizing customer convenience, and our Express Checkout for Kiosk Orders does exactly that.

If you’d like to see it in action, schedule a demo with our specialists to learn how this feature can improve the customer experience and optimize operations.

We’re excited to introduce improvements to the Customer Search in the Dashboard and POS!

Our latest update enhances the speed, functionality, and usability of customer searches, making it easier than ever to find the customer information you need.

Key Features:

• Faster Search Performance: Search results now load quicker, allowing you to assist customers in less time.
• New and Improved UI: Enjoy a refreshed, user-friendly design in both the Dashboard and web POS for a smoother, more intuitive experience.

We’re pleased to announce our new integration with Sticky Cards so retailers can increase customer engagement with an app-free, digital wallet loyalty solution.

Digital Wallet Loyalty

Designed specifically for cannabis retailers, Sticky Cards introduces a new loyalty program that doesn’t rely on apps or SMS. Wallet cards, unlike apps, never expire, are never removed from your device’s storage, and ensure messages are always delivered.

This solution overcomes the constraints of SMS regulations, allowing retailers to send precise push notifications directly to customers’ wallets.

When you scan a Sticky Card at the point of sale, the customer’s loyalty points, transaction history, and upcoming rewards are instantly displayed in Greenline. 

We’re excited to announce a significant upgrade to the new Insights Reports section on your dashboard. This new reporting feature is designed to handle large quantities of data much faster and more consistently.

The new Insights Reports will replace the Advanced Reports section on the dashboard, which will be deprecated on Tuesday, August 20, 2024.

What’s New

Improved Performance

• Insights Reports offer quicker access to your data, making it easier to make informed decisions.

Expanded Reporting

• All the reports you’ve been using in the Advanced Reporting tab, and more, are now available in the Insights section.

Future Enhancements

• We’re planning to add even more powerful reporting tools to the Insights section to further enhance your operations.

What’s Changing?

• We will be deprecating the Advanced Reporting tab on August 20, however, all the reports you’ve relied on have already been transitioned to the Insights section, where you’ll find improved performance.

We encourage you to explore the new Insights Reports to familiarize yourself with the new section. If you have any questions or need assistance with the transition, we’re here to help!

We’re thrilled to share a fantastic new enhancement to our loyalty feature that we think you’ll love. You can now tie automatic discounts to loyalty tiers! Previously, loyalty discounts had to be manually applied, but with this update, you can offer special pricing and promotions for your loyalty customers directly through the point of sale. Please note that automatic discounts cannot remove loyalty points from the purchase.

To set this up navigate to your BLAZE Canada dashboard > Products > Discounts

1. Set up a new discount as an automatic discount
   
2. Add a loyalty tier to the discount
   

Once the discount is set up > simply add a customer to the cart and the corresponding discounts will be visible.

Important Note: There is a known issue where if you add a customer from a loyalty tier, add a discounted product, then remove the customer from that loyalty tier, the discount will still apply. In this very rare case, the budtender can manually remove the discount.

We hope this new feature makes it easier for you to reward your loyal customers and streamline your operations. As always, we’re here if you have any questions or need assistance.
