Step by step

How it works in ScanKeeper App

  1. 01

    Open Bulk import

    Open Actions and choose Bulk import when the codes you need are already saved as photos or screenshots.

    Bulk import lives with the app's collection tools.
  2. 02

    Select up to 50 photos

    Choose the images from your gallery in one pass instead of importing every card separately.

  3. 03

    Let ScanKeeper scan the batch

    The app checks each image for supported QR codes and barcodes directly on the device.

    Review every result

    Readable codes arrive with their value. Add a clear name; if a photo cannot be read, fill in the missing value manually or skip it.

    Return to your collection

    Confirm the useful cards and finish the batch. The imported cards now live in the library with the rest of your collection.

Built for migration

Moving wallets should not mean scanning every card again

People often keep loyalty codes in a mix of old wallet apps, retailer apps, emails, and screenshots. When those images are already on your phone, re-scanning the physical card adds unnecessary work. Bulk import turns the gallery into a migration source.

Select a manageable batch, let ScanKeeper identify readable codes, and then add the human details — names, images, and folders — that make the new collection useful.

Why it helps

Designed around the real-world handoff

Up to 50 images

Replace dozens of repetitive one-at-a-time imports with a single photo selection.

Guided review

Confirm each recognized code and give it context before it enters your collection.

Local analysis

The scan runs on the device and does not require uploading your barcode images to us.

Common questions

What to know before you start

How many barcode photos can I import at once?

ScanKeeper lets you choose up to 50 photos in one bulk import batch.

What happens if an image has no readable code?

ScanKeeper reviews the selected images and reports which ones contain recognized codes, so you can continue with the successful results.

Can I name each imported card separately?

Yes. After the batch is scanned, the import flow walks you through reviewing and naming each detected code before saving the collection.

Is bulk import useful when switching from another wallet app?

Yes. If you can export or capture your existing cards as images or screenshots, bulk import reduces the repetitive work of adding them one at a time.
