ID

The ID module allows you to scan membership cards with UPCs using a QR scanner; once scanned, the module will store the information embedded in the UPC code so that a digital ID can be created for your users. This module also enables you to have an instant feed in the module where you can post different content related to your membership (offers, announcements)

Users can interact with your posts by liking, sharing, or writing comments, which admins will only see.

This module is the best to use if you want to build a Community App.
