Bar Coded Church Offering Envelopes

Many churches find that bar coding their offering envelopes is an ideal solution to the weekly challenge of timely and accurate recording of contributions. Bar coding is the latest, simplest, most widely accepted development in offering envelopes today. Adding bar codes to your personalized envelopes is so easy we'll print it on your envelopes at NO extra charge! Rather than keying envelope numbers manually, just use your bar code scanner. You'll open the right file every time, reducing contribution-recording errors and cutting data entry time in half.

• Accuracy Assured—Scanning a bar coded envelope ensures that the right parishioner's file is opened each and every time. Mis-keying numbers and the risk associated with opening the wrong parishioner file is eliminated. The computer operator need only focus on keying or scanning correct dollar amounts.
• No New Software—Bar code scanning devices work with any and all software programs that your parish uses. The scanner automatically interprets bar codes as keystrokes. Just buy a small and affordable bar code scanner, plug it in between your keyboard and computer, and begin effort-free recording right away. Four types of scanners are available: traditional wedge, wand/pen, gun, and laser. For a product recommendation, ask your representative today.
• Save Time—Contribution recording time can be dramatically reduced, especially for inexperienced computer operators. Fewer keystrokes multiplied by hundreds or thousands of member number entries means more time available for other important tasks.
• Parishioner Numbers Stay the Same—Our computer specialists create printed bar codes by converting your existing parishioners' envelope numbers into matching bar codes. No one will need to change or reassign envelope numbers.
• No Training Needed—The computer operator simply scans the bar code on the envelope with the scanner, and the parishioner's file is automatically accessed. There’s no need to key envelope numbers.
